Commission

[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
