Williams Natural Gas Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

January 14, 1998.
    Take notice that on January 8, 1998, Williams Natural Gas Company 
(Williams), P.O. Box 3288, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74101, filed in Docket No. 
CP98-174-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 157.212 of the 
Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205 and 
157.212) for approval to replace the Kansas Gas & Electric Brock meter 
setting and to reinstall the existing Brock meter setting at the Catt 
regulator site, both in Bourbon County, Kansas, under Williams' blanket 
certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-479-000, pursuant to Section 7 of 
the Natural Gas Act (NGA), all as more fully set forth in the request 
which is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Williams states that the volumes of natural gas at the Catt site 
are currently measured by KG&E and that the installation of the Brock 
meter setting will eliminate Williams' dependence on KG&E for 
measurement at the site. Williams asserts that the projected volume of 
natural gas delivery at the new Brock setting is expected to increase 
over the next few years, but the delivery volumes at the Catt site will 
remain unchanged. Williams further asserts that this change is not 
prohibited by an existing tariff and that Williams has sufficient 
capacity to accomplish the deliveries specified without detriment or 
disadvantage to Williams' other customers. Williams indicates that the 
total project cost is estimated to be $124,125, which will be paid from 
available funds.
    Any person or the Commission's Staff may, within 45 days of the 
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule 
214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 
385.214), a motion to intervene and pursuant to Section 157.205 of the 
regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205), a protest to 
the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefor, 
the proposed activities 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and not withdrawn 30 days after the time allowed for filing a protest, 
the instant request shall be treated as an application for 
authorization pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
