DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP25–36–000] 

Columbia Gas Transmission, LLC; 

Notice of Request Under Blanket 

Authorization and Establishing 

Intervention and Protest Deadline 

Take notice that on December 17, 

2024, Columbia Gas Transmission, LLC 

(Columbia), 700 Louisiana Street, Suite 

1300, Houston, Texas 77002–2700, filed 

in the above referenced docket, a prior 

notice requests pursuant to sections 

157.205 and 157.216 of the 

Commission’s regulations under the 

Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Columbia’s 

blanket certificate issued in Docket No. 

CP83–76–000 for authorization to 

abandon five injection/withdrawal 

wells, connecting pipeline, and 

appurtenant facilities located in the 

Lorain, Lucas, Pavonia, and Weaver 

Storage Fields (Project). All of the above 

facilities are located in Ashland, Lorain, 

and Richland Counties, Ohio. The 

Project is necessary to comply with the 

Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety 

Administration’s (PHMSA) Storage 

Final Rule which requires operators to 

assess and minimize well integrity risks. 

The five wells proposed for 

abandonment, and associated facilities 

are no longer necessary due to their low 

performance and inability to contribute 

significantly to the total deliverability of 

the Lorain, Lucas, Pavonia, and Weaver 

Storage Fields. Columbia states that 

abandoning these facilities will 

eliminate routine maintenance 

requirements and the associated costs. 

The estimated cost for the Project is 3.4 

million, all as more fully set forth in the 

request which is on file with the 

Commission and open to public 

inspection. 

In addition to publishing the full text 

of this document in the Federal 

Register, the Commission provides all

is no fee or cost for filing protests, 

motions to intervene, or comments. The 

deadline for filing protests, motions to 

intervene, and comments is 5:00 p.m. 

Eastern Time on February 18, 2025. 

How to file protests, motions to

below. 

The Commission’s Office of Public 

Participation (OPP) supports meaningful

Commission proceedings. OPP can help 

members of the public, including 

landowners, environmental justice 

communities, Tribal members and 

others, access publicly available 

information and navigate Commission 

processes. For public inquiries and 

assistance with making filings such as

Commission’s regulations under the 

NGA,1 any person 2 or the Commission’s 

staff may file a protest to the request. If 

no protest is filed within the time 

allowed or if a protest is filed and then 

withdrawn within 30 days after the 

allowed time for filing a protest, the 

proposed activity shall be deemed to be 

authorized effective the day after the

6Additionally, you may file your comments 

electronically by using the eComment feature, 

which is located on the Commission’s website at 

www.ferc.gov under the link to Documents and 

Filings. Using eComment is an easy method for 

interested persons to submit brief, text-only 

comments on a project. 

Protests must comply with the 

requirements specified in section 

157.205(e) of the Commission’s 

regulations,3 and must be submitted by 

the protest deadline, which is February 

18, 2025. A protest may also serve as a 

motion to intervene so long as the 

protestor states it also seeks to be an 

intervenor. 

Interventions 

Any person has the option to file a 

motion to intervene in this proceeding. 

Only intervenors have the right to 

request rehearing of Commission orders 

issued in this proceeding and to 

subsequently challenge the 

Commission’s orders in the U.S. Circuit 

Courts of Appeal. 

To intervene, you must submit a 

motion to intervene to the Commission 

in accordance with Rule 214 of the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedure 4 and the regulations under 

the NGA 5 by the intervention deadline 

for the project, which is February 18, 

2025. As described further in Rule 214, 

your motion to intervene must state, to 

the extent known, your position 

regarding the proceeding, as well as 

your interest in the proceeding. For an 

individual, this could include your 

status as a landowner, ratepayer, 

resident of an impacted community, or 

recreationist. You do not need to have 

property directly impacted by the 

project in order to intervene. For more 

information about motions to intervene, 

refer to the FERC website at https://

www.ferc.gov/resources/guides/how-to/ 

intervene.asp. 

All timely, unopposed motions to 

intervene are automatically granted by 

operation of Rule 214(c)(1). Motions to 

intervene that are filed after the 

intervention deadline are untimely and 

may be denied. Any late-filed motion to 

intervene must show good cause for 

being late and must explain why the 

time limitation should be waived and 

provide justification by reference to 

factors set forth in Rule 214(d) of the 

Commission’s Rules and Regulations. A 

person obtaining party status will be 

placed on the service list maintained by 

the Secretary of the Commission and 

will receive copies (paper or electronic) 

of all documents filed by the applicant 

and by all other parties. 

Comments 

Any person wishing to comment on 

the project may do so. The Commission 

considers all comments received about 

the project in determining the 

appropriate action to be taken. To 

ensure that your comments are timely 

and properly recorded, please submit 

your comments on or before February 

18, 2025. The filing of a comment alone 

will not serve to make the filer a party 

to the proceeding. To become a party, 

you must intervene in the proceeding. 

How To File Protests, Interventions,

protests, motions to intervene, and 

comments. In both instances, please 

reference the Project docket number 

CP25–36–000 in your submission.

Transmission, LLC, 700 Louisiana

Tracking the Proceeding

will be available from the Commission’s 

Office of External Affairs, at (866) 208–
