Columbia Gulf Transmission Company; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

January 29, 1999.
    Take notice that on January 19, 1999, Columbia Gulf Transmission 
Company (Columbia Gulf), 2603 Augusta, Suite 125, Houston, Texas 77001, 
filed in Docket No. CP99-159-000 a request pursuant to Sections 
157.205, 157.208 and 157.211 of the Commission's Regulations (18 CFR 
157.205, 157.208 and 157.211) under the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for 
authorization to construct and operate pipeline and delivery point 
facilities for deliveries to New Albany Power I, L.L.C. (New Albany) 
near New Albany, Mississippi, under Columbia Gulf's blanket certificate 
authorization issued in Docket No. CP83-496-000, pursuant to Section 7 
of the NGA, all as more fully set forth in the request that is on file 
with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Columbia Gulf proposes to construct, own and operate facilities 
consisting of 1,000 feet of 12-inch pipeline and appurtenances, 
extending from Columbia Gulf's mainline system to a new interconnection 
with the facilities of New Albany. Columbia Gulf proposes to use the 
facilities to provide backhaul transportation service for New Albany, 
delivering 75,032 dt equivalent of natural gas to New Albany on a firm 
basis under its FTS-1 rate schedule. Columbia Gulf estimates the cost 
of the facilities $857,000. It is stated that the deliveries will be 
within existing entitlements. It is asserted that the proposal will not 
impact Columbia Gulf's existing peak day obligations to its existing 
customers.
    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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.
