Take notice that on May 5, 1998, Koch Gateway Pipeline Company (Koch Gateway), P.O. Box 1478, Houston, Texas 77251-1478, filedin Docket No. CP98-520-000 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 operate as a jurisdictional facility, a two-inch tap and a two-inch meter station, located in Harrison County, Mississippi, under Koch Gateway's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-430-000, pursuant to Section 7(c) 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.

Koch Gateway proposes to operate as a jurisdictional facility in interstate commerce, a two-inch tap and a two-inch meter station previously installed and placed in service under Section 311(a) of the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 and Section 284.3(c) of the Commission's regulations. Koch Gateway states that the proposed certification of facilities will enable Koch Gateway to provide transportation services under its blanket transportation certificate through a tap serving Entex, Inc. (Entex), a local distribution company in Harrison County, Mississippi, for Warren Paving, Inc., an end user.

Once this delivery point is certificated as a jurisdictional facility, Koch Gateway asserts Entex will be able to receive gas shipped to this point pursuant to jurisdictional open-access transportation agreements as well as Section 311 agreements. Koch Gateway declares Entex estimates its peak day and average day requirements for the delivery point to be 1,630 MMBtu and 104 MMBtu, respectively. Koch Gateway states they were reimbursed by Entex approximately $102,000 for the construction 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 filedwithin 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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for authorization pursuant to Section 7 of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. David P. Boergers, Acting Secretary.
