[Docket No. CP96-85-000]
National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; Notice of Amendment
March 5, 1996.
Take notice that on January 4, 1996, National Fuel Gas Supply
Corporation (National Fuel), 10 Lafayette Square, Buffalo, New York
14203, requested that its abandonment application, filed on November
24, 1995, in Docket No. CP96-85-000, pursuant to Section 7(b) of the
Natural Gas Act and Part 157 of the Commission's Regulations be amended
to include authorization to abandon Wells 5448 and 5447 located in
National Fuel's St. Mary's Storage Field, Elk County, Pennsylvania.
National Fuel states that Well 5448 was plugged in 1974 and Well 5447
was plugged in 1976.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said amendment should on or before March 12, 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 and
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 in any proceeding herein 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 amendment if no motion to
intervene is filed within the time required herein, if the Commission
of its own review of the matter finds that permission and approval for
the proposed abandonment are required by the public convenience and
necessity. If a motion for leave to intervene is timely filed, or if
the Commission on its own motion believes that 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 National Fuel to appear or to be represented at the
hearing.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
