53326 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 198 / Tuesday, October 14, 1997 / Notices

1On July 25, 1997, the El Dorado Irrigation

District filed a motion in opposition to PG&E’s

withdrawal of the NOI. Because PG&E is not

required to file a relicense application, we deny El

Dorado’s motion.

Koch Gateway indicates that it

notified the Mississippi Public Service

Commission of this filing.

Koch Gateway asserts that natural gas

service will be continued to all but one

end-user whose service will be

converted to propane; that Entex will

continue to receive natural gas service

pursuant to Koch Gateway’s No-Notice,

Firm Transportation, and Interruptible

Rate Schedules; and the proposed

activities will not have a significant

impact on Koch Gateway’s peak day or

average day volumes.

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 therefore,

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protest is filed and not withdrawn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.

company in LaFourche Parish,

the affected end-users through new taps

on an adjacent Koch Gateway pipeline.

tie-over measures.

Koch Gateway indicates that the

approximate cost of the proposed

abandonment and construction

activities is $31,500. The purchaser of

Index 276 will reimburse Koch Gateway

for all such costs.
