[Docket No. CP97-512-000]
National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; Notice of Application
May 15, 1997.
Take notice that on May 7, 1997, National Fuel Gas Supply
Corporation (National Fuel), 10 Lafayette Square, Buffalo, New York
14203, filed in Docket No. CP97-512-000, an application pursuant to
Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act for permission and approval to
abandon a firm transportation service with Transcontinental Energy
Marketing Company (Transco), which was authorized in Docket No. CP88-
171, et al., all as more fully set forth in the application on file
with the Commission and open to public inspection.
National Fuel proposes to abandon a firm transportation service
with Transco in connection with the conversion of this service from
Rate Schedule X-57 to service under National Fuel's FT Rate Schedule,
provided under Part 284 of the Commission's regulations. National Fuel
states that Transco's current maximum daily volume under Rate Schedule
X-57 is 75,000 Mcf.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make protest with reference
to said
[[Page 27730]]
application should on or before June 5, 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 provided for, unless otherwise advised, it will
be unnecessary for National Fuel to appear or be represented at the
hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
