    Take notice that on May 30, 1997, NorAm Gas Transmission Company 
(NGT), 525 Milam Street, P.O. Box 21734, Shreveport, Louisiana 71151, 
filed in Docket No. CP97-553-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 
and 157.211 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act 
(18 CFR 157.205, 157.211) for authorization to construct and operate a 
new 1-inch delivery tap and first cut regulator, located in Crittenden 
County, Arkansas, under NGT's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. 
CP82-384-000 and CP82-384-001, pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural 
Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the request that is on file

first cut regulator on NGT's Line JM-23 located in Section 26, Township 
7 North, Range 8 East, West Memphis, Crittenden County, Arkansas to 
provide service to ARKLA, a distribution division of NorAm Energy 
Corporation.
    NGT states the estimated volumes to be delivered to this tap are 
approximately 360 MMBtu annually and 1 MMBtu on a peak day. NGT 
declares it will transport gas to ARKLA and provide service under its 
tariff, that the volumes delivered are within ARKLA's certificated 
entitlement, and NGT's tariff does not prohibit the addition of new 
delivery points. NGT asserts it has sufficient capacity to accomplish 
the deliveries without detriment or disadvantage or disadvantage to its 
other customers.
    NGT states the estimated total project costs will be approximately 
$2,394, and ARKLA will reimburse NGT $1,750 of the costs.
    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

withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a protest, 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.
