[[Page 29390]]

(Columbia), 12801 Fair Lake Parkway, Fairfax, Virginia 22030-1046, 
filed in Docket No. CP98-560-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 
and 157.216 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act 
(18 CFR 157.205, 157.216) for authorization to abandon by retirement 
approximately 0.04 mile of 2-inch pipeline and one delivery point to 
Columbia Gas of Pennsylvania, Inc. (CPA), located in Fulton County, 
Pennsylvania, under Columbia's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. 
CP83-76-000, pursuant to Section 7(c) 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 abandon transmission line 10033, consisting of 
0.04 mile of 2-inch pipeline and appurtenances and one point of 
delivery to CPA, all located in Fulton County, Pennsylvania. Columbia 
declares the section of Line 10033 for which abandonment authority is 
requested is a 2-inch transmission pipeline that has provided service 
to CPA, thereby enabling CPA to serve the Kirk Motel, that now has been 
converted to residential sites and is served by CPA. Columbia states 
that CPA has recently constructed approximately 1,100 feet of 2-inch 
plastic pipeline to serve this point of delivery (POD) and thereby 
eliminated the need for Columbia's Line 10033 and the associated Kirk 
Motel POD.
    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 pursaunt 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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
