Gateway indicates that the name change was effective August 24, 1993. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gateway proposes to abandon approximately 5,000 feet of 12-inch lateral pipeline and the associated meter station by sale of the pipeline to Liquid Carbonics, Inc. (Liquid Carbonics), and the transfer of the metering facilities to Gateway's inventory. Gateway states that the facilities have been used to provide transportation service to Arcadian Corporation's (Arcadian) ammonia plant located in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana. Gateway explains that, due to a catastrophic failure caused by an explosion at the plant in July 1992 and since Arcadian does not plan to rebuild the facility, Gateway has arranged to sell the 12-inch pipeline to Liquid Carbonics. Gateway advises that Arcadian is the only Gateway customer served through the line. Gateway further explains that the pipeline would be used by Liquid Carbonics for the transmission of hydrogen gas and not for the transportation of natural gas in interstate commerce. Gateway states that (a) the facilities originally cost $868,563, (b) Liquid Carbonics would pay $275,000 for the lateral, (c) the salvage value of the metering facilities is $203,739 and (d) the removal cost is estimated to be $41,000.
