[Docket No. CP13-533-000]
Columbia Gas Transmission, LLC; Prior Notice of Activity Under
Blanket Certificate
On August 14, 2013, Columbia Gas Transmission, LLC (Columbia) filed
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) an
application under section 7 of the Natural Gas Act and Sections 157.205
and 157.210 of the Commission's regulations and Columbia's
authorization in Docket No. CP83-76-000, 22 FERC ]62,029 (1983), to
convert some existing compressor units from base load to standby
operational mode at three compressor stations. As explained in the
application, the affected stations are located in Braxton County, Hardy
Elk County, and Pendleton County, West Virginia.
Questions regarding this application may be directed to Fredric J.
George, Senior Counsel, Columbia Gas Transmission, LLC, P.O. Box 1273,
Charleston, West Virginia 25325-1273, by calling 304-357-2359 or fax
304-357-3206.
Pursuant to Section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either:
complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or issue a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review (NSER). If a Notice of
Schedule for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among
other milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's
issuance of the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for
this proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record
for this proceeding or the issuance of a NSER will serve to notify
federal and state agencies of the timing for the completion of all
necessary reviews, and the subsequent need to complete all federal
authorizations within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission
staff's FEIS or EA.
Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 60 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 157.205 of
the regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.205), a protest to the
request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefore, 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not withdrawn within 30 days after the allowed time for filing a
protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for
authorization pursuant to Section 7 of the NGA.
Protests will be considered by the Commission in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but will not serve to make protestants
parties to the proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must
file a notice of intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate.
Such motions or protests must be filed on or before the comment date.
Anyone filing a motion to intervene or protest must serve a copy of
that document on the Applicant, on or before the comment date. It is
not necessary to serve motions to intervene or protests on persons
other than the Applicant.
The Commission encourages electronic submission of comments,
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link
at http://www.fere.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should
submit an original and five copies of the protest or intervention to
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE.,
Washington, DC 20426.
This filing is accessible on-line at http://www.ferc.gov using the
``eLibrary'' link and is available for review in the Commission's
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an ``eSubscription''
link on the Web site that enables subscribers to receive email
