Texas Eastern states that it proposes to construct, own, and operate a new receipt point on Texas Eastern's 30-inch diameter Lines Nos. 14 and 18 to receive revaporized liquefied natural gas from the Sabine Pass LNG, L.P. LNG import terminal located in Cameron Parish, Louisiana, via Kinder Morgan Louisiana Pipeline (Kinder Morgan). The taps into Texas Eastern's mainline would be located in Evangeline Parish, Louisiana. This new receipt point would provide Texas Eastern with the ability to receive up to 500 MMcf of natural gas per day from Kinder Morgan into Texas Eastern's pipeline system. Texas Eastern also states that the addition of the receipt point would have no significant impact on Texas Eastern's peak day or annual deliveries and is not prohibited by Texas Eastern's FERC Gas Tariff. Texas Eastern further states that it would be reimbursed by Kinder Morgan for the estimated $2,109,396 total cost to construct and operate the proposed receipt point facilities.
