Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation; Notice of Application

February 17, 1995.
    Take notice that Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation (Columbia), 
a Delaware corporation, having its principal place of business at 1700 
MacCorkle Avenue, S.E., Charleston, West Virginia 25314-1599, filed on 
February 15, 1995, an abbreviated application pursuant to Section 7 of 
the Natural Gas Act, as amended, for a certificate of public 
convenience and necessity authorizing the construction and operation of 
certain LNG vaporization facilities, as more fully described in the 
application.
    Columbia requests NGA Section 7(c) authorization to provide a total 
of 35,000 Dth/d of increased liquefaction demand to its LNG customers, 
the City of Richmond (10,000 Dth/d increase), Commonwealth Gas 
Services, Inc. (9,585 Dth/d increase), and to Virginia Natural Gas, 
Inc. (15,415 Dth/d increase), and to construct and operate a new 
vaporization unit at its Chesapeake, Virginia LNG facility. The 
estimated cost of the proposed construction is $2,388,000 to be paid by 
the LNG customers.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
reference to said application should, on or before March 10, 1995, 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 section 7 and section 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 applicant to appear or be represented at the 
hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
