Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corp.; Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

September 11, 1995.
    Take notice that on September 8, 1995, Transcontinental Gas Pipe 
Line Corporation (Transco), Post Office Box 1396, Houston, Texas 77251, 
filed in Docket No. CP95-746-000 a request pursuant to Sections 
157.205(b) and 157.212 of the Commission's Regulations under the 
Natural Gas Act (18 CFR Secs. 157.205(b) and 157.212) and Transco's 
blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-426-000, for 
authorization to expand an existing delivery point to New Jersey 
Natural Gas Company (NJNG), all as more fully set forth in the request 
which is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Transco states that NJNG is a transportation and storage customer 
of Transco under Transco's Rate Schedules IT, FT, SS-2 and X-288. 
Pursuant to NJNG's request, Transco proposes to expand the Morgan Meter 
Station, a delivery point to NJNG located on Transco's main line system 
in Middlesex County, New Jersey. This point of delivery is used by NJNG 
to receive gas into its distribution system. Transco states that the 
proposed expansion would be accomplished by Transco replacing two 
existing four-inch meter tubes with three new eight-inch meter tubes 
and replacing two existing two-inch regulators with three four-inch 
regulators at the existing station.
    Transco states that it currently delivers up to 30,000 dekatherms 
of gas per day (dt/d) to NJNG at the Morgan Meter Station. As a result 
of the expansion proposed herein, the capacity of the Morgan Meter 
Station will be increased to 100,000 dt/d. Transco states that the 
addition deliveries to the Morgan Meter Station would be made on an 
interruptible basis. Transco states that it has sufficient system 
delivery flexibility to accomplish such additional deliveries without 
detriment or disadvantage to Transco's other customers.
    Transco states that it is not proposing to alter the total volumes 
authorized for delivery to NJNG on a firm basis or to otherwise change 
in any way NJNG's firm capacity entitlement on Transco's system. 
Transco further states that the expansion of this delivery point will 
have no impact on Transco's peak day deliveries and little or no impact 
on Transco's annual deliveries and is not prohibited by Transco's FERC 
Gas Tariff.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after 
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule 
214 of the Commission's Procedural Rules (18 CFR 385.214) a motion to 
intervene or notice of intervention and pursuant to Section 157.205 of 
the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to 
the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefor, 
the proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the 
day after the time allowed for filing a protest. If a protest is filed 
and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 
protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for 
authorization pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
