[Docket No. CP96-49-001]
National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; Notice of Petition To
Vacate In-Part
January 23, 1996.
Take notice that on January 18, 1996, National Fuel Gas Supply
Corporation (National), 10 Lafayette Square, Buffalo, New York 14203,
filed in Docket No. CP96-49-001 a ``Notice of Continuation of Service''
stating that National would continue service to Boston Gas Company
(Boston Gas) under National's SS-2 Rate Schedule, all as more fully set
forth in the amendment on file with the Commission and open to public
inspection.
On December 19, 1995, the Commission issued an order in Docket No.
CP96-49-000, granting the authority requested by National on
[[Page 2817]]
November 3, 1995, to abandon storage service to Boston Gas under
National's SS-2 Rate Schedule and to abandon storage service to three
other customers (Orange & Rockland Utilities, Inc., Penn Fuel Gas, Inc.
and The Southern Connecticut Gas Company), effective April 1, 1996.\1\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
National states that following the filing of National's
application, National and Boston Gas entered into negotiations over the
continuation of Boston Gas' SS-2 service. National states that these
negotiations have culminated in an agreement extending the primary term
of Boston Gas' SS-2 service agreement through March 31, 1998. National
states that, in this regard, National is authorized by Boston Gas to
state that Boston Gas rescinds its notice of termination given to
National in March, 1995. National states that it deletes Boston Gas
from the services it proposed to terminate.
The Commission will treat National's Notice of Continuation of
Service as a petition to vacate in-part the authorization granted
pursuant to Section 7(b) in Docket No. CP96-49-000.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said petition should on or before February 7, 1996, file
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20426,
a motion to intervene or a protest in accordance with the requirements
of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10).
All protests filed with the Commission will be considered by it in
determining the appropriate action to be taken but will not serve to
make the protestants parties to the proceeding. Any person wishing to
become a party to a proceeding or to participate as a party in any
hearing therein must file a motion to intervene in accordance with the
Commission's Rules.
