[Docket No. CP05-44-000]
Columbia Gulf Transmission Company; Notice of Request Under
Blanket Authorization
January 12, 2005.
Take notice that on January 5, 2005, Columbia Gulf Transmission
Company (Columbia Gulf), 2603 Augusta, Houston, Texas 77057-5637, filed
in Docket No. CP05-44-000, an application pursuant to Sec. Sec.
157.205, 157.208, and 157.216 of the Commission's Regulations under the
Natural Gas Act (NGA) as amended, and Columbia Gulf's blanket
certificate authorization granted in Docket No. CP83-496-000,\1\ for
authorization to replace 9.39 miles of its 30- and 36-inch pipeline
designated as Mainlines 100, 200, and 300, located in Williamson and
Davidson counties, Tennessee, due to a Department of Transportation
(DOT) class location change of the pipeline. Columbia Gulf states that
as a result of recent population density surveys required by DOT, it
has determined that in order to maintain the current maximum operating
pressure of the pipeline, the existing pipeline must be replaced by a
heavier walled pipeline. Columbia Gulf does not propose the addition of
new services or any changes to existing service as a result of the
replacement. Columbia Gulf also seeks approval to abandon by removal an
equivalent length of existing like sized transmission pipeline and
appurtenances of its Mainlines 100, 200, and 300, which is being
replaced. The pipeline will be replaced with an approximate like amount
and a like size pipeline. The construction is proposed to take place
within an existing right-of-way, is estimated to cost $15.6-million,
and will involve a typical lift and lay procedure, all as more fully
set forth in the application which is on file with the Commission and
open to public inspection.
