(NYSE:CG) and its principal pipeline subsidiary, Columbia Gas Transmission Corp. In other action, the court established voting and solicitation procedures for both plans and approved the amended disclosure statement for the Parent Company's reorganization plan. Columbia Transmission's disclosure statement was approved by the court on July 18. Ballots seeking ratification of the plans are expected to be mailed to creditors of each company and to the Parent Company's shareholders by early September. Columbia System Chairman and CEO O. G. Richard III said the company was extremely pleased with the confirmation schedule established by the court, pointing out that it should enable the companies to maintain their current timetable and emerge from Chapter 11 prior to the end of this year. The Columbia Gas System, Inc., one of the nation's largest natural gas holding companies, and Columbia Transmission have been operating as debtors-in-possession under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code since July 31, 1991. -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
