order: (1) Transferring Reef's NGA section 3 authorization to West 
Texas for the operation and maintenance of facilities used to export 
natural gas at the International Border near Eagle Pass, Maverick 
County, Texas, to Coahuila, Mexico; and (2) authorizing the assignment 
of Reef's May 30, 2002, Presidential Permit for the operation and 
maintenance of facilities at the Coahuila, Mexico/Texas export point.
    The export facilities consist of approximately 400 feet of 12-inch 
diameter pipeline extending from certain intrastate pipeline facilities 
in Texas to an interconnection with pipeline facilities owned by 
Compania National de Gas, S.A. (Conagas) in Coahuila, Mexico. West 
Texas would continue to operate and maintain these border crossing 
facilities in its own name rather than as Reef. West Texas and Reef 
state that no new facilities would be constructed.
    West Texas and Reef state that the border facilities will remain in 
place and operation following the requested transfer and assignment. 
West Texas and Reef also state that the border crossing facilities 
would be used for transportation services subject to the jurisdiction 
of the Texas Railroad Commission.

this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by

of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the
