Item 7.01 Disclosure of nonpublic information
On June 3, 2005, the Registrant announced that its pipeline subsidiaries Gulf South Pipeline Company, LP and Texas Gas Transmission, LLC have commenced to develop, jointly with Energy Transfer Partners, L.P., two new independently owned and operated pipelines that will interconnect near Carthage, Texas. The two pipeline projects integrate the Gulf South and Texas Gas systems with Energy Transfer’s existing pipeline systems.
Gulf South is proposing to construct a 36” interstate pipeline with an initial capacity of 1 billion cubic feet per day, that will originate in Carthage, where it will interconnect with Energy Transfer’s pipelines and then be connected to Gulf South’s existing high pressure mainline pipeline system in Louisiana and Mississippi and with Texas Gas’ high pressure mainlines in Louisiana. Energy Transfer anticipates developing a 36 mile, 36” pipeline from its Texoma pipeline east to Carthage. The joint development of the new pipelines is subject to completion of the multi-year development process including obtaining customer commitments, necessary regulatory approvals and the execution of definitive agreements, among other things.
