September 16, 1998.
Take notice that on September 10, 1998, Tennessee Gas Pipeline
Company (Tennessee), P.O. Box 2511, Houston, Texas 77252, filed in
Docket No. CP98-770-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and
157.212 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18
CFR 157.205, 157.212) for authorization to construct and operate a
delivery point to serve a new customer, LSP Energy Limited Partnership
(LSP), an electric power generator located in Panola County,
Mississippi, under Tennessee's blanket certificate issued in Docket No.
CP82-413-000, pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act, all as more
fully set forth in the request that is on file with the Commission and
open to public inspection.
Tennessee proposes to construct and operate a new delivery point on
its system to provide up to 216,000 Mcf (approximately 219,240
dekatherms) of natural gas per day to LSP at a new electric power
generating plant which LSP will build in Panola County, Mississippi.
Tennessee proposes to install two 12-inch tap assemblies on its 100
Line at approximately Mile Post (M.P.) 63-3+6.8 and M.P. 63-4+6.8, and
that the construction will take place on its existing right-of-way. In
addition, Tennessee states that it will install electronic gas
measurement (EGM) and communications equipment, gas chromatograph
equipment, a building for the EGM, communications, and chromatograph
equipment on an adjacent site to be provided by LSP and valving and
appurtenant facilities. Tennessee states it will own, operate and
maintain the hot tap assemblies, the EGM and communications equipments,
the chromatograph equipment, the building for the EGM, communications,
and chromatograph equipment and the valving and appurtenant facilities.
Tennessee states that LSP will install, own, operate and maintain the
interconnecting piping and other appurtenant facilities and will
install, own, and maintain the measurement facilities. Tennessee states
that it will operate the measurement facilities, and that LSP will
reimburse Tennessee for the cost of the project which is estimated to
be $231,000.
Tennessee states that the addition of the proposed delivery point
is not expected to have any significant impact on Tennessee's peak day
and annual deliveries. Further, Tennessee states that it will have
sufficient capacity to accomplish deliveries at the delivery point
without detriment or disadvantage to Tennessee's other customers.
Tennessee also states that the construction of this delivery point is
not prohibited by Tennessee's existing tariff, and that the total
volumes to be
[[Page 50562]]
delivered to LSP after the construction of the delivery point is
completed will not exceed the total quantities authorized prior to the
construction of the delivery point.
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.
