Commission

[Docket No. CP98–657–000]

Columbia Gulf Transmission

Company; Notice of Request Under

Blanket Authorization

July 22, 1998.

Take notice that on July 8, 1998,

Columbia Gulf Transmission Company

(Columbia Gulf), 2603 Augusta, Suite

125, Houston, Texas 77001, filed in

Docket No. CP98–657–000 a request

pursuant to Sections 157.205 and

157.211 of the Commission’s

Regulations (18 CFR 157.205, 157.211)

under the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for

authorization to construct and operate

7.1 miles of 16-inch diameter pipeline

and appurtenances and a new delivery

point in St. Charles Parish, Louisiana,

under Columbia Gulf’s blanket

certificate issued in Docket No. CP83–

496–000, pursuant to Section 7 of the

NGA, all as more fully set forth in the

request that is on file with the

Commission and open to Public

inspection.

Columbia Gulf proposes to construct,

own and operate the facilities in order

to make deliveries to Entergy Louisiana

Inc. (ELI), a retail electric utility

company which has requested

transportation service from Columbia. It

is stated that the pipeline facilities will

extend from Columbia Gulf’s existing

Paradis lateral to an interconnection

with Evangeline Gas Pipeline, L.P.,

where the new delivery point will be

located. It is asserted that Columbia Gulf

will initially deliver up to 100,000 Dt

equivalent of natural gas per day to ELI

on an interruptible basis pursuant to its

ITS–2 rate schedule, with firm service to

come later. It is estimated that the cost

of the proposed facilities will be

approximately $5,784,800. It is

explained that the proposed deliveries

will not impact Columbia Gulf’s existing

peak day obligations to its other

customers.

Any person or the Commission’s staff

may, within 45 days after issuance of

the intent notice by the Commission,

file pursuant to Rule 214 of the

Commission’s Procedural Rules (18 CFR

385.214) a motion to intervene or notice

of intervention and pursuant to Section

157.205 of the Regulations under the

Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205) a

protest to the request. If no protest is

filed within the time allowed therefor,

the proposed activity shall be deemed to

be authorized effective the day after the

time allowed for filing a protest. If a

protest if filed and not withdrawn
