[Docket No. SA99-3-000]
John B. Fleeger, Thomas H. Fleeger, and Mary Jean Blanton Trust;
Notice of Petition for Adjustment
November 23, 1998.
Take notice that on October 28, 1998, John B. Fleeger filed a
petition for adjustment in Docket No. SA99-3-000, pursuant to Section
502(c) of the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978, on behalf of himself,
including his \1/3\ interest in the Many States Oil Company (Many
States), the Mary Jean Blanton Trust (Mary Jean Blanton, Trustee),
including the trust's \1/3\ interest in Many States, and Thomas H.
Fleeger, including his \1/3\ interest in Many States. Applicants
request relief from paying Kansas ad valorem tax refunds to Williams
Gas Pipelines Central, Inc., (Williams). Applicants state that they
were notified by Helmerich & Payne, Inc., that they owe refunds to
Williams. Applicants's petition indicates that, with interest computed
to July 7, 1998, each owes approximately $36,483.75 to Williams.
Applicants' petition is on file with the Commission and open to public
inspection.
Applicants contend that paying these refunds will cause them
economic harm. Applicants state that they obtained their respective
interests, which is less than 15%, from their father many years ago.
Applicants further state that they are not oil people by education or
upbringing, that Thomas H. Fleeger's financial condition is very bad,
and that they each rely on the income from these wells to differing
degrees. Applicants add that the wells associated with the subject
refund amount have not been money-makers.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said petition should, on or before 15 days after the date
of publication in the Federal Register of this notice, file a motion to
intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,
888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, in accordance with the
requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18
CFR 385.214, 385.211, 385.1105, and 385.1106). 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 proceeding
or to participate as a party in any hearing therein must file a motion
to intervene in accordance with the Commission's Rules.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
