[Docket No. CP19-485-000]


Notice of Request Under Blanket Authorization: Columbia Gas 
Transmission, LLC

    Take notice that on July 2, 2019, Columbia Gas Transmission, LLC 
(Columbia), 700 Louisiana Street, Houston, Texas 77002, filed in Docket 
No. CP19-485-000, a Prior Notice Request pursuant to sections 157.205 
and 157.216 of the Commission's regulations under the Natural Gas Act 
(NGA), and Columbia's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP83-76-
000, requesting authorization to abandon six injection/withdrawal (I/W) 
wells, and associated appurtenances, and abandon in-place six 
associated pipelines totaling approximately 1.7 miles at the Lucas and 
Weaver Storage Fields located in Ashland County, Ohio. Columbia states 
the I/W wells have provided a de minimus contribution to the total 
field deliverability and casing replacement would not be cost effective 
due to the age of the facilities, all as more fully described in the 
application which is on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection. The filing may also be viewed on the web at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket number

of intervention and pursuant to section 157.205 of the regulations 
under the NGA (18 CFR 157.205), a protest to the request. If no protest 
is filed within the time allowed therefore, 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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn within 30 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 allowed time for filing a protest, the instant request 
shall be treated as an application for authorization pursuant to 
section 7 of the NGA.

complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the

Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule 
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other 
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of 
the EA for this proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's 
public record for this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of 
Schedule for Environmental Review will serve to notify federal and 
state agencies of the timing for the completion of all necessary 
reviews, and the subsequent need to complete all federal authorizations 
within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's EA.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of

copies of filed documents on all other parties. However, the non-party 
commenters will not receive copies of all documents filed by other 
parties or issued by the Commission and will not have the right to seek 
court review of the Commission's final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 
protests, and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link 
at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should 
submit an original and 3 copies of the protest or intervention to the 
Federal Energy regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Washington,
