[Docket No. CP98-1-000]
Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation; Notice of Request Under
Blanket Authorization
October 8, 1997.
Take notice that on October 1, 1997, Columbia Gas Transmission
Corporation (Columbia), P.O. Box 1273, Charleston, West Virginia 25325-
1273, filed in Docket No. CP98-1-000 a request pursuant to Sections
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 a new point of delivery, located in Knox County, Ohio, to
Columbia Gas of Ohio (COH), 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 an additional point of
delivery of COH, in Knox County, Ohio and to reassign a portion of the
Maximum Daily Delivery Obligation (MMDO) from an existing point of
delivery to COH and institute a corresponding reduction at an existing
point of delivery. Columbia states that as part of the firm
transportation service to be provided, COH has requested that its
existing Storage Service Transportation Agreement be amended by
increasing the MMDO by 350 Dth/day at the proposed new point of
delivery and reducing the MMDOs at the existing point of delivery by
350 Dth/day. Columbia estimates annual quantities of natural gas to be
delivered at the new point of delivery to be 30,600 Dth annually.
Columbia asserts the end use of the new point of delivery will be
industrial and utilized to serve a grain dryer operation. Columbia
states the interconnecting and appurtenant facilities required to
establish the new delivery point are estimated to cost $14,000, with
COH reimbursing Columbia 100% of the total 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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a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.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
