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 Columbia Gas of Pennsylvania, Inc., 
(CPA) in Washington County, Pennsylvania to reassign and reduce the 
Maximum Daily Delivery Obligations (MDDOs) at another existing point to 
CPA, under Columbia's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP83-76-

    \1\ Columbia Gas Transmission Corp., 22 FERC para. 62,029 
(1983).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Columbia requests authorization to modify an existing point of 
delivery for firm transportation service and will provide the service 
pursuant to Columbia's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP96-
240-000 \2\ under existing rate schedules and within certificated 
entitlements.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ Columbia Gas Transmission Corp., 34 FERC para. 62,454 
(1986).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The modification of the existing point of delivery has been 
requested by CPA for additional firm transportation service for 
residential and commercial customers. CPA has not requested an increase 
in its total firm entitlement in conjunction with this request to 
modify this existing point of delivery. As part of the firm 
transportation service to be provided, CPA has requested that its 
existing SST Agreement with Columbia be amended by reducing the MDDO's 
at the existing Goat Hill point of delivery by 659 Dth/day and adding 
659 Dth/day to the modified point of delivery which currently lists 66 
Dth/day under Columbia's existing SST Rate Schedule. The estimated cost 
to modify the existing point of delivery is approximately $22,222.00. 
CPA will reimburse Columbia 100% of the actual total cost of the 
modification.
    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.

Secretary.
