CP95-659-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 157.212 of the

Tennessee's existing right-of-way and the EGM would be located on an
adjacent site provided by Bolivar. Tennessee states that the total cost
of the new facilities would be $38,820 and

increase the maximum contract quantity under an existing FT-GS contract

4. Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation
[Docket No. CP95-665-000]
Take notice that on August 4, 1995, Columbia Gas Transmission
Corporation (Columbia), 1700 MacCorkle Avenue, SE., Charleston, West
Virginia 25314, filed in Docket No. CP95-665-000 a request pursuant to
Sections 157.205, 157.211 ad 157.212 of the Commission's Regulations
under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 157.211 and 157.212) for
authorization to construct and operate a new point of delivery to
Baltimore Gas & Electric Company (BGE), in Baltimore County, Maryland,
and reassign and reduce Maximum Daily Delivery Obligations (MDDO's) at
another existing point to BGE, under Columbia's blanket certificate
issued in Docket No. CP83-76-000 pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural
Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the request that is on file
with the Commission and open to public inspection.
The proposed delivery point for BGE would be used to provide up to
412 Dth/Day for residential service to serve Edrich Manor, a new
subdivision. Columbia states that it will provide the service pursuant
to Columbia's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP86-240-000 and
that the transportation service to be initially provided through the
new point of delivery will be firm service provided under Columbia's
Rate Schedules SST or FTS, or it may be provided under firm capacity
released by other shippers.
Columbia states that BGE has not requested an increase in its peak
day entitlements in conjunction with this request for a new point of
delivery and, therefore, there is no impact on Columbia's existing peak
day obligations to its customers as a result of the construction and
operation of the proposed new point of delivery. Columbia states that
BGE agrees to amend its existing SST Service Agreement with an MDDO
increase for Edrich Manor and a like reduction to the granite MDDO by
412 Dth/Day.
Columbia states that the estimated cost to establish this point of
delivery will be approximately $41,000, plus gross-up for income tax
purposes. Columbia states that BGE has agreed to reimburse Columbia for
the actual cost.
Columbia states that it will comply with all of the environmental
requirements of Section 157.206(d) of the Commission's regulations
prior to the construction of any facilities.
