[Docket No. CP98–637–000]

Columbia Gas Transmission

Corporation; Notice of Application

July 8, 1998.

Take notice that on June 26, 1998,

Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation

(Columbia), 12801 Fair Lakes Parkway,

Fairfax, Virginia 22030–0146 filed an

application pursuant to Sections 7(b)

and 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act and Part

157 of the Commission’s Regulations for

authorization permitting and approving

the abandonment of pipeline facilities

and a certificate of public convenience

and necessity to construct and operate

replacement pipeline facilities, an

increase in deliverability from an

existing storage field, and reacquisition

of certain pipeline capacity storage

wells, as more fully set forth in the

application which is on file with the

Commission and open to public

inspection.

Specifically, Columbia requests

authorization for the following;

• Abandonment of 6.9 miles of 12-

inch pipeline and appurtenant facilities

on Line VM–108, in Sussex County,

Virginia.

• Construction and operation of 6.9

miles of 20-inch pipeline and

appurtenant facilities in Sussex County,

Virginia (replacing the 12-inch pipeline

to be abandoned).

• Increase the deliverability of the

Glady Storage Field in Randolph and

Pocahontas Counties, West Virginia by

enhancing two existing wells.

• Reacquire existing pipeline capacity

on Columbia’s Solo Pipeline between

the Emoria and Petersburg Compressor

Stations from Transco Energy Marketing

Company.

Columbia states that the proposed

replacement is primarily due to age and

condition. In addition, replacement of

12-inch with 20-inch pipeline will

permit Columbia to fulfill a request by

Virginia Natural Gas Company (VNG)

for an additional 14,625 Dth per day in

Firm Storage Service (FSS) and

associated Firm Storage Transportation

(SST) to its Norfolk, Virginia delivery

point. The estimated cost of the

proposed project is $7,193,200. The

incremental costs associated with

additional service to VNG are estimated

to be $2,706,200.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

make any protest with reference to said

application should on or before July 29,

1998, file with the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission, 888 First

motion to intervene or a protest in

accordance with the requirements of the

Commission’s Rules of Practice and

Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and

385.214) and the regulations under the

Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10). All

protests filed with the Commission will

be considered by it in determining the

appropriate action to be taken but will

not serve to make the protestants parties

to the proceeding. The Commission’s

rules require that protestors provide

copies of their protests to the party or

parties directly involved. Any person

wishing to become a party in any

proceeding herein must file a motion to

intervene in accordance with the

Commission’s rules.

A person obtaining intervenor status

will be placed on the service list

maintained by the Secretary of the

Commission and will receive copies of

all documents filed by the applicant and

by every one of the intervenors. An

intervenor can file for rehearing of any

Commission order and can petition for

court review of any such order.

However, an intervenor must submit

copies of comments or any other filing

it makes with the Commission to every

other intervenor in the proceeding, as

well as 14 copies with the Commission.

A person does not have to intervene,

however, in order to have comments

considered. A person, instead, may

submit two copies of comments to the

Secretary of the Commission.

Commenters will be placed on the

Commission’s environmental mailing

list, will receive copies of

environmental documents and will be

able to participate in meetings

associated with the Commission’s

environmental review process.

Commenters will not be required to

serve copies of filed documents on all

other parties. However, commenters

will not receive copies of all documents

filed by other parties or issued by the

Commission and will not have the right

to seek rehearing or appeal the

Commission’s final order to a federal

court.

The Commission will consider all

comments and concerns equally,

whether filed by commenters or those

requesting intervenor status.

Take further notice that, pursuant to

the authority contained in and subject to

the jurisdiction conferred upon the

Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the

Natural Gas Act and the Commission’s

Rules of Practice and Procedure, a

hearing will be held without further

notice before the Commission or its

designee on this application if no

motion to intervene is filed within the

time required herein, if the Commission

on its own review of the matter finds

that permission and approval for the

proposed abandonments and a grant of

the certificate are required by the public

convenience and necessity. If a motion

for leave to intervene is timely filed, or

if the Commission on its own motion

believes that formal hearing is required,

further notice of such hearing will be

duly given.

Under the procedure herein provided

for, unless otherwise advised, it will be

unnecessary for Columbia to appear or

to be represented at the hearing.

Acting Secretary.

shall be treated as an application for

authorization pursuant to Section 7 of
