Columbia Gas Transmission
Corporation; Notice of Limited Scoping
for the Ohio Storage Expansion Project
May 9, 2008.
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) will prepare an
environmental assessment (EA) that will
discuss the potential environmental
impacts of the Ohio Storage Expansion
Project, involving construction and
operation of natural gas facilities by
Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation
(Columbia) in Ashland, Fairfield,
Hocking, and Holmes Counties, Ohio.
The EA will be used by the Commission
in its decision-making process to
determine whether the project is in the
public convenience and necessity.
On May 1, 2008, Columbia filed a
revision to its project that would remove
two wells from consideration, thus not
affecting two landowners. Further,
Columbia would add four additional

wells (Well 12491, Well 12492, Well
12578, and Well 12496) affecting two
additional landowners. This filing is
available for review at the Commission
in the Public Reference Room or may be
viewed on the Commission’s Web site at
https://www.ferc.gov using the
‘‘eLibrary’’ link. Enter the docket

FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or call
toll free at (866) 208–3676, or for TTY,
contact (202) 502–8659.
Because the two additional
landowners were recently added to our
environmental mailing list (after the
April 7, 2008 close of scoping), they
have not had an opportunity to
comment on Columbia’s planned
project. Therefore, we are opening a
limited scoping period directed at these
landowners to comment on the project
and attaching the original Notice of
Intent to Prepare an Environmental
Assessment and Request for Comments
on Environmental Issues to this letter.
Please note that this limited scoping
period will close on June 1, 2008.
