The gamma ray emission within 10(deg) of the galactic plane is generally dominated by diffuse emission resulting from cosmic ray interactions with the interstellar medium and with the optical, infrared, and black body photon fields. A model of the diffuse emission, when subtracted from the EGRET survey data, along the Galactic plane shows regions of excess whose spatial distributions are consistent with point source emission. A map of the residual emission and within 10(deg) of the plane for energies above 100 MeV, together with a preliminary listing of sources, their intensity, and their detection significance are presented.
