    National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; Notice of Application
    
    November 30, 1998.
        Take notice that on November 23, 1998, National Fuel Gas Supply 
    Corporation (National Fuel), 10 Lafayette Square, Buffalo, New York 
    14203, filed in Docket No. CP99-85-000 an application pursuant to 
    Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act for permission and approval to 
    abandon certain facilities in Venango County, Pennsylvania, all as more 
    fully set forth in the application which is on file with the Commission 
    and open to public inspection.
        National Fuel proposes to abandon approximately 5,822 feet of 6-
    inch steel pipeline, known as Line N-M31, located in Venango County, 
    Pennsylvania, because of its age and deteriorated condition. National 
    Fuel also proposes to abandon in its entirety Station T-No. 2261, a 
    regulator station, located on Line N-M31, which was used to reduce the 
    pressure of Line N-M31 to 60 psig. National Fuel states that the 
    abandonment will not have an effect on its existing services because 
    National Fuel's existing parallel Line N-M43 has sufficient capacity to 
    maintain current delivery volumes and will provide more reliable 
    service.
        Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
    reference to said Application should on or before December 21, 1998, 
    file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, 
    NE, Washington, DC 20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in 
    accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice 
    and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 or 18 CFR 385.214) 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.
        Take further notice that pursuant to the authority contained in and 
    subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Commission by Sections 7 
    and 15 of the Natural Gas Act and the Commission's Rules of Practice 
    and Procedure, a hearing will be held without further notice before the 
    Commission or its designee on this Application if no petition to 
    intervene is filed within the time required herein, if the Commission 
    on its own review of the matter finds that a grant of the abandonment 
    is required by the public convenience and necessity. If a petition for 
    leave to intervene is timely filed, or if the Commission, on its own 
    motion believes that a formal hearing is required, further notice of 
    such hearing will be duly given.
        Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised, 
    it will be unnecessary for Applicant to appear or be represented at the 
    hearing.
    David P. Boergers,
    Secretary.
