    Columbia proposes to abandon the historically underperforming 
Guernsey Well 8161 together with the associated well pipeline (Line 
SOW-8161) and appurtenances located in the Guernsey Storage Field, in 
Guernsey County, Ohio. Columbia also proposes to convert the 
underperforming Lanham Storage Well No. 7137 from active injection/
withdrawal status to observation status and abandon the associated X-2-
W7137 pipeline and appurtenances located in the Lanham Storage Field in 
Kanawha County, West Virginia. Columbia does not propose to abandon any 
natural gas service; however, Columbia would terminate service to one 
free gas customer pursuant to the terms of the lease agreement between 
the customer and Columbia. Columbia estimates that it would cost 
$1,700,000 to replace the facilities that Columbia proposes to retire 
in this proceeding.
