    Williams Natural Gas Company; Notice of Application
    
    April 16, 1997.
        Take notice that on April 11, 1997, Williams Natural Gas Company 
    (WNG), P.O. Box 3288, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74101, filed in Docket No. CP97-
    336-000 an application pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act 
    for permission and approval to abandon by reclaim and in place a total 
    of approximately 11.3 miles of 20-inch-diameter pipeline and 
    approximately 0.76 mile of 16-inch-diameter pipeline located in Alfalfa 
    and Woods Counties, Oklahoma, all as more fully set forth in the 
    application on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
        Specifically, WNG proposes to abandon by reclaim approximately 10.4 
    miles of the Pampa 20-inch-diameter pipeline (Line T) and to abandon in 
    place approximately 0.9 miles of Line T located in Alfalfa and Woods 
    Counties, Oklahoma. WNG also proposes to abandon by reclaim 
    approximately 0.76 mile of 16-inch-diameter pipeline (Line NX-316) 
    located in Woods County, Oklahoma. WNG states that all deliveries made 
    from the 20-inch-diameter pipeline have been transferred to an adjacent 
    4-inch-diameter pipeline, therefore there will be no abandonment of 
    service. WNG estimates that the cost of the abandonment will be 
    approximately $170,240 with an estimated salvage value of $165,000.
        Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
    reference to said application should on or before May 7, 1997, 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.
        Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in 
    and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy 
    Regulatory 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 motion to intervene is filed within the time 
    required herein, if the Commission on 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 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 WNG to appear or be represented at the 
    hearing.
    Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
    Acting Secretary.
