(Columbia) (jointly referred to as

Applicants), tendered for filing a joint

application pursuant to Section 7(b) of

Applicants assert that no construction

or abandonment of any facility is

proposed. Applicants also state that a

Pipeline Interconnect Balancing

herein seek Commission authorization

for the abandonment of the abovementioned Rate Schedules and the

transportation service provided

thereunder.

and necessity. If a motion for leave to

intervene is timely filed, or if the

Commission on its own motion believes

that a formal hearing is required, further
