DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
 

Columbia Gas Transmission Corp.; Application

[Docket No. CP94-252-000]
February 25, 1994.
    Take notice that on February 24, 1994, Columbia Gas Transmission 
Corporation (Columbia), 1700 MacCorkle Avenue, SE., Charleston, West 
Virginia 25314-1599, filed in Docket No. CP94-252-000 an application 
pursuant to section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act for a certificate of 
public convenience and necessity authorizing the construction and 
operation of certain natural gas facilities, all as more fully set 
forth in the application on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection.
    Columbia states that to ensure reliable operation of its pipeline 
facilities, Columbia has initiated a program to install pig launching 
and receiving facilities in segments of its existing storage fields 
which, in certain storage fields, would result in the need to replace 
short segments of pipeline to provide for a uniform pipe size between 
launchers and receivers.
    As part of this program, Columbia says that it proposes to 
construct and operate approximately 0.8 mile of 16-inch pipeline to 
replace approximately 0.8 mile of 6-, 8-, 10-, 12- and 16-inch pipeline 
on its Line SL-2709, a bidirectional launcher and receiver, as well as 
various appurtenant facilities, located in Columbia's Medina Storage 
Field, Medina County, Ohio.
    Columbia states that it does not request authorization for any new 
or additional service. Columbia further states that the estimated cost 
of the proposed construction is $686,400 and would be financed with 
funds generated from internal sources.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
reference to said application should on or before March 14, 1994, file 
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20426, a 
motion to intervene or a protest in accordance with the requirements of 
the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 
385.211) 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. Any person wishing to 
become a party to a proceeding or to participate as a party in any 
hearing therein must file a motion to intervene in accordance with the 
Commission's Rules.
    Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in 
and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy 
Regulatory 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 a grant of the certificate is 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 a 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 be represented at the 
hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
