Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP99-269-000]

 
Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

April 7, 1999.
    Take notice that on March 22, 1999, as supplemented April 6, 1999, 
Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation (Columbia), 12801 Fair Lakes 
Parkway, Fairfax, Virginia 22030-0146, filed a prior notice request 
with the Commission in Docket No. CP99-269-000 pursuant to Sections 
157.205, 157.208(a), 157.212(a), and 157.216 of the Commission's 
Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for authorization to modify 
an existing delivery point in Scioto County, Ohio, under Columbia's 
blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP83-76-000 pursuant to 
Section 7 of the NGA, all as more fully set forth in the request which 
is open to the public for inspection. The application may be viewed on 
the web at www.ferc.fed.us. Call (202) 208-2222 for assistance.
    Columbia proposes to modify an existing delivery point used to 
serve Columbia Gas of Ohio's (COH) customer, Aristech Chemical 
Corporation (Aristech) in Scioto County. Columbia proposes to modify 
the existing metering station by installing and owning electronic 
measuring equipment, and replacing approximately 1.7 miles of 6-inch 
diameter pipe with 1.7 miles of 10-inch diameter pipe. Columbia states 
that it would increase deliveries at the Aristech delivery point from 
15,000 dekatherms equivalent of natural gas per day at the modified 
delivery point. Columbia, however, further states that COH has not 
requested an increase in its firm entitlements. COH states that it 
would cover the increased deliveries at the Aristech delivery point by 
shifting volumes at other delivery volumes at other delivery points. 
Thus, the proposed increased in delivery volumes at the Aristech 
delivery point would have no impact on Columbia's design day or annual 
obligations to its other customers. Columbia states that COH would 
reimburse Columbia approximately $952,600 for the modification cost of 
the Aristech delivery point.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after the 
Commission has issued this notice, 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 NGA (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to the request. If 
no protest is filed within the allowed time, 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 NGA.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
