    [Docket No. CP94-693-000]
    
     
    
    National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; Motion to Vacate
    
    October 13, 1994.
        Take notice that on October 6, 1994, National Fuel Gas Supply 
    Corporation (National Fuel), 10 Lafayette Square, Buffalo, New York 
    14203, filed in Docket No. CP94-693-000 a ``Notice of Withdrawal of 
    Pleading'' seeking to withdraw its ``Request for Authorization Under 
    the Notice Procedures of Sec. 157.205'' which was filed August 1, 1994, 
    in Docket No. CP94-693-000 (prior notice filing). National Fuel states 
    that its Notice of Withdrawal is filed in compliance with Condition C 
    of the Commission's Order on Rehearing issued in Docket Nos. CP94-112-
    001 and CP88-94-009 on September 1, 1994 (68 FERC 61,278).
        National Fuel's prior notice filing involved a request for 
    authorization to construct and operate a new point of delivery in the 
    town of Grand Island, Erie County, New York to provide service to an 
    existing customer, National fuel Gas Distribution Corporation 
    (Distribution), under National Fuel's blanket certificate issued in 
    Docket No. CP83-4-000. The prior notice filing was noticed August 4, 
    1994, and no protests were filed during the notice period which expired 
    September 19, 1994.
        In its prior notice filing, National Fuel noted that it had 
    previously applied for approval under Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas 
    Act for the acquisition and construction of certain facilities, 
    including the delivery point described in the prior notice filing. 
    National Fuel explained that it had received conditional approval of 
    the proposal by order issued June 1, 1994, in Docket Nos. CP94-112-000 
    and CP88-94-008 (67 FERC 61,270 (1994)). National Fuel stated that it 
    was unable to commence acquisition and construction because it could 
    not satisfy all the conditions included in the June 1 order and 
    therefore it had filed for rehearing of the June 1 order. National Fuel 
    asserted that it urgently needed to commence construction of the Grand 
    Island station in order to have the station in operation by November 1.
        National Fuel has now accepted the certificate issued in Docket No. 
    CP94-112-000, et al., in the June 1 order, as amended by the 
    Commission's September 1, 1994, order on rehearing. However, Paragraph 
    (C) of the order on rehearing provided that before National fuel may 
    begin construction of the facilities authorized in Docket No. CP94-112-
    000, it must withdraw its prior notice request filed in Docket No. 
    CP94-693-000.
        The Commission will treat National Fuel's Notice of Withdrawal as a 
    motion to vacate the authorization granted pursuant to Secs. 157.205 
    and 157.212 in Docket No. CP94-693-000.
        Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
    reference to said motion to vacate should on or before November 3, 
    1994, 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. All persons who have hereto 
    filed need not file again.
    Lois D. Cashell,
    Secretary.
