Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

June 29, 1998.
    Take notice that on June 16, 1998, Columbia Gas Transmission 
Corporation (Columbia), 12801 Fair Lakes Parkway, Fairfax, Virginia 
22030 filed in Docket No. CP98-620-000 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 operate an 
existing point of delivery to Columbia Gas of Maryland, Inc., (CMD) in 
Allegany County, Maryland 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 certification to provide this service at an 
existing point of delivery which was originally authorized under 
Section 311 of the Natural Gas Policy Act (NGPA) for transportation 
service. Columbia states that the customer is CMD, the maximum daily 
quantity is 40 Dth and the estimated annual quantity is 14,600 Dth.
    Columbia constructed the existing point of delivery to CMD in 
Allegany County, Maryland, which was placed in service on May 1, 1998. 
Interconnecting facilities installed by Columbia included a 2-inch tap 
and valve. The existing point of delivery will be utilized for 
residential service. The cost of constructing the existing point of 
delivery was $4,200.
    The quantities of natural gas to be provided through the existing 
point will be within Columbia's authorized level of service. Therefore, 
there is no impact on Columbia's existing point of delivery for 
transportation service.
    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
