[Docket No. CP98-694-000]


Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

July 31, 1998.
    Take notice that on July 24, 1998, Columbia Gas Transmission 
Corporation (Columbia), 12801 Fair Lakes Parkway, Fairfax, Virginia 
22030-0146, filed in Docket No. CP98-694-000 a request pursuant to 
Sections 157.205, and 157.212, of the Commission's Regulations under 
the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 157.212) for authorization to 
modify an existing point of delivery to Washington Gas Light Company 
(WGL) by constructing certain facilities in Prince William County, 
Virginia, 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.
    Columbia requests authorization to modify its Robert Trent Jones 
point of delivery and provide service under existing rate schedules and 
within certificated entitlements. Columbia estimates that the proposed 
volumes will be approximately 20,600 Dth/day. The modification has been 
requested by WGL to provide additional firm transportation service for 
residential and commercial customers. WGL has not requested an increase 
in its total firm entitlements. Therefore, there is no impact on 
Columbia's existing peak day obligations to its other customers.

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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.
