Koch Gateway Pipeline Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

November 10, 1998.
    Take notice that on November 4, 1998, Koch Gateway Pipeline Company 
(Koch Gateway), P.O. Box 1478, Houston, Texas 77251-1478, filed in 
Docket No. CP99-53-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 
157.216 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 
CFR 157.205, 157.216) for authorization to abandon delivery lateral 
facilities located in Polk County, Texas, under Koch Gateway's blanket 
certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-430, 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.
    Koch Gateway proposes to abandon by removal two 2-inch taps and a 
dual 2-inch meter station, and abandon in place approximately 6,100 
feet of 2-inch pipeline delivery lateral (Index 59-7) all located in 
Polk County, Texas. Koch Gateway states that these facilities formerly 
served Corrigan City Gate and Champion International Paper Company on 
behalf of Entex Inc. (Entex), the local distribution company. Koch 
Gateway states that this delivery lateral and associated facilities are 
inactive and obsolete since it placed into service newer facilities to 
serve Entex at this point. Koch Gateway states that the abandonment of 
the obsolete facilities will have no impact on current services 
provided to Entex.
    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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
