Koch Gateway Pipeline Company; Notice of Petition

June 12, 1997.
    Take notice that on May 21, 1997, Koch Gateway Pipeline Company 
(Koch Gateway), 600 Travis Street, Houston, Texas 77251-1478, filed in 
Docket No. CP97-538-000 a petition, pursuant to Rule 207(a)(5) of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.207(a)(5), and 
Section 7(c)(1)(B) of the Natural Gas Act seeking temporary exemption 
from certificate requirements, all as more fully set forth in the 
petition which is on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection.
    Specifically, Koch Gateway seeks an exemption so as to allow the 
temporary cessation of operation of six 1,000 horsepower reciprocating 
compressor units located at its Magasco Compressor Station in Sabine 
County, Texas for up to 18 months from the filing date of this 
petition. According to Koch Gateway, these six units were originally 
installed in 1925 and certificated in Koch Gateway's grandfather 
certificate in FPC Docket No. G-232.
    Koch Gateway states that inactivating these units will not affect 
current services on its system.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest with reference to 
said petition should on or before July 3, 1997, file with the Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 
20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in accordance with the 
requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 
CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act 
(18 CFR 157.10). All protests filed with the Commission will be 
considered by it in determining the appropriate action to be taken, but 
will not serve to make protestants parties to

the proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party to a proceeding or 
to participate as a party in any hearing therein must file a motion to 
intervene in accordance with the Commission's Rules.
