Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

July 15, 1996.
    Take notice that on July 10, 1996, Columbia Gas Transmission 
Corporation (Columbia), 1700 MacCorkle Avenue, S.E., Charleston, West 
Virginia 24314-1599, filed in Docket No. CP96-631-000 a request 
pursuant to Secs. 157.205, 157.212 and 157.216 of the Commission's 
Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 157.212, 
157.216) for authorization to modify a point of delivery to 
Commonwealth Gas Services, Inc. (Commonwealth) in Shenandoah County, 
Virginia as well as abandon certain natural gas facilities 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 proposes to modify the existing delivery point to 
Commonwealth, which provides service to Rocco Farm Foods. Columbia 
proposes to abandon its existing Measurement and Regulating Station No. 
804710 in order to facilitate a new measurement and regulating station 
constructed by Commonwealth. Columbia would construct a new two-inch 
tap at a cost of approximately $2,000 and would retire its existing 
facilities at a cost of approximately $7,000.
    Columbia states that the proposed facility modification and 
abandonment would not result in any reduction, abandonment or increase 
in service to the customer. Columbia states that the maximum daily 
delivery obligation at the subject delivery point is 318 Dth.
    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 Sec. 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not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
