    Take notice that on January 7, 1997, Columbia Gas Transmission 
Corporation (Columbia), P.O. Box 1273, Charleston, West Virginia 25325-
1273, filed in Docket No. CP97-185-000 a request pursuant to 
Secs. 157.205 and 157.211 of the Commission's Regulations under the 
Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 157.211) for authorization to 
construct and operate an additional point of delivery for interruptible 
transportation service to Commonwealth Gas Services, Inc. (COS), 
located in Sussex County, Virginia, under Columbia's blanket 
certificate issued in Docket No. CP83-76-000, pursuant to Section 7(c) 
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.
    Columbia proposes to construct and operate a new point of delivery 
to COS for interruptible service under Part 284 of the Commission's 
Regulations. Columbia advises that the estimated quantities of natural 
gas to be delivered at the new point of delivery are 1,080 Mcf/Day and 
155,000 Mcf/Annually. Columbia asserts the end use of the gas will be 
residential and the point of delivery will be utilized to serve Sussex 
County Prison.
    Columbia states the interconnecting facilities to be constructed 
will consist of installing a 4-inch tap, 4-inch check valve, and 
approximately 40 feet of 4-inch pipe, located in Sussex County, 
Virginia, at an estimated cost of $12,500. Columbia advises they will 
be reimbursed by COS for 100% of the total actual cost of the proposed 
construction.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after 
issuance of the instant 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 is filed 
and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 
protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for 
authorization pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act.
