[Federal Register: August 6, 1998 (Volume 63, Number 151)] [Notices] [Page 42015-42016] From the Federal Register Online via GPO Access [wais.access.gpo.gov] [DOCID:fr06au98-41] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [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. [[Page 42016]] 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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for authorization pursuant to Section 7 of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.
