            Senate Bill 1826 amends the Utilities Code to establish that a company, limited liability company, private corporation, or individual operating a natural gas pipeline, a liquefied natural gas pipeline, or an underground storage facility is not a gas utility if such an operator certifies to the Railroad Commission of Texas that the pipeline or underground storage facility is used solely to deliver natural gas or liquefied natural gas that has been stored for export or that is liquefied by the operator for certain purposes. The bill provides that those and other conditions that exclude an operator from being a gas utility also apply to the delivery of constituents of natural gas or liquefied natural gas.
