Columbia Gas Transmission Corp.; Petition for Approval of 
Stipulation

July 13, 1994.
    Take notice that on July 8, 1994, pursuant to Rule 207 of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.207, Columbia 
Gas Transmission Corporation (Columbia) filed a petition requesting 
that the Commisssion issue an order approving a stipulation entered 
into by Columbia and Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America (NGPL) on 
May 26, 1994. Columbia states that the stipulation terminates 
Columbia's contractual obligations under its transportation, exchange, 
and assignment contracts between Columbia and NGPL through the payment 
of a negotiated exit fee by Columbia to NGPL in consideration for 
NGPL's agreement to the termination and abandonment of NGPL's services 
to Columbia under Contract No. 27864-GN (X-134).
    The stipulation is contingent upon Bankruptcy Court and Commission 
approval, including Commission approval of Columbia's full recovery 
from Columbia's customers of the exit fee paid to NGPL.
    Comments on the settlement, as well as motions to intervene or 
protests should be filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 
825 North Capitol Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, on or before 
August 2, 1994. Reply comments should be filed on or before August 12, 
1994. Protests will be considered by the Commission in determining the 
appropriate action to be taken, but will not serve to make protestants 
parties to the proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must 
file a motion to intervene. Copies of this petition are on file with 
the Commission and are available for public inspection.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
