and a two-inch meter station, located in

and placed in service under Section

311(a) of the Natural Gas Policy Act of

1978 and Section 284.3(c) of the

certification of facilities will enable

Koch Gateway to provide transportation

services under its blanket transportation

certificate through a tap serving Entex,

end user.

Once this delivery point is certificated

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.

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protest is filed and not withdrawn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
