[Docket No. CP09-62-000]
Columbia Gas Transmission, LLC; Notice of Request Under Blanket
Authorization
February 11, 2009.
Take notice that on February 9, 2009, Columbia Gas Transmission,
LLC (Columbia), having its principal office at 5151 San Felipe, Suite
2500, Houston, Texas 77056, filed a prior notice request pursuant to
sections 157.205 and 157.208 of the Commission's regulations under the
Natural Gas Act (NGA) for authorization to increase the maximum
allowable operating pressure (MAOP), under Columbia's blanket
certificate issued in Docket No. CP83-076-000, all as more fully set
forth in the application, which is on file with the Commission and open
to public inspection. The filing may also be viewed on the Web at
http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket
number excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to

FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or call toll-free, (866) 208-3676 or TTY,

Specifically, Columbia requests authorization to increase the MAOP
of its Line L-2102 from its current 210 psig to a new MAOP of 350 psig
and to operate the pipeline at that higher pressure. Line L-2102
consists of approximately 4 miles of 10-inch pipeline beginning at the
interconnection of Line-2102 and Line L-2100 and terminating at the
interconnection with Line M-48 in Knox County, Ohio. The uprate is
requested to allow Columbia Gas of Ohio, Inc. to meet pressure
requirements to one of its customers at the Rolls Royce Plant in Mt.
Vernon, Ohio. The proposed uprate creates a capacity increase of
approximately 11 thousand dekatherms per day (MDth/d). The increase in
MAOP will also improve the operating efficiency of the pipeline.
Any questions regarding the application should be directed to James
R. Downs, Director of Regulatory Affairs, Columbia Gas Transmission,
LLC, 5151 San Felipe Suite 2500 Houston, TX 77056, phone: (713) 267-

Any person may, within 60 days after the 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. Any person filing to intervene or the Commission's staff

proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the day
after the time allowed for 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withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a protest,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 NGA.
