Koch Gateway Pipeline Company; Notice of Proposed Changes in FERC 
Gas Tariff

May 28, 1998.
    Take notice that on May 22, 1998, Koch Gateway Pipeline Company 
(Koch) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Fifth 
Revised Volume No. 1, Sixth Revised Sheet No. 1810, to become effective 
June 21, 1998.
    Koch proposes modifications to Section 11.4(e)(2) of the General 
Terms and Conditions regarding the economic scheduling of Rate Schedule 
ISS (Interruptible Storage Service) in order to clarify the definition 
of the ``average storage rate''. For the purposes of economic 
scheduling related to ISS injections, Section 11.4(e)(2) calculates the 
average storage rate based upon the average injection, space, and fuel 
charges paid previously or to be paid on the day of scheduling. For the 
purposes of economic scheduling related to withdrawals, the average 
storage rate is based upon the average injection, space, fuel, and 
withdrawal charges previously paid or to be paid on the day of 
scheduling. Since the inception of Rate Schedule ISS, Koch has not 
invoked Section 11.4(e)(2).
    Koch proposes to modify Section 11.4(e)(2) to correct certain 
omissions in the current tariff provision. Specifically, Koch proposes 
to include any withdrawal charges paid prior to the day of scheduling 
in the calculation of the average storage rate for injections. Koch 
also proposes to value fuel charges at Koch's fuel reimbursement price 
published monthly on its electronic bulletin board. The current tariff 
provision does not address either of these issues. Koch believes that 
these proposed changes will further clarify the economic scheduling 
provisions of Rate Schedule ISS and result in the equitable treatment 
of all ISS customers.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest this filing should 
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, 
in accordance with Sections 385.214 and 385.211 of the Commission's 
Rules and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed as 
provided in Section 154.210 of the Commission's Regulations. Protests 
will be considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate 
action to

be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the 
proceedings.
    Any person wishing to become a party must file a motion to 
intervene. Copies of this filing are on file with the Commission and 
are available for public inspection in the Public Reference Room.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
