DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP99-591-000]
National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; Request Under Blanket
Authorization
July 23, 1999.
Take notice that on July 22, 1999, National Fuel Gas supply
Corporation (National Fuel), 10 Lafayette Square, Buffalo, New York
14203, filed in Docket No. CP99-591-000 a request
[[Page 41101]]
pursuant to Sections 157.205, 157.208 and 157.214 of the Commission's
Regulations (18 CFR 157.205, 157,208 and 157.214) under the Natural Gas
Act (NGA) for authorization to increase the storage capacity at the
Galbraith Storage Field, located in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania and
to raise the maximum allowable operating pressure (MAOP) of Line G-
24(S) under National Fuel's blanket certificate issued in Docket No.
CP83-4-000, pursuant to Section 7 of the NGA, all as more fully set
forth in the application which is on file with the Commission and open
to public inspection. This filing may be viewed on the web at http://
www.ferc.fed.us/online/htm (call 202-208-2222 for assistance).
National Fuel requests authorization to increase the maximum
storage capacity of the Galbraith Storage Field from 1,620,000 Mcf to
2,620,000 Mcf, and to increase the maximum storage pressure from 620
psig (surface) to 910 psig (surface). National Field is needed to
support storage services to be offered to shippers using National
Fuel's facilities. National Fuel asserts that the increase in capacity
and pressure at the Galbraith Storage Field will not require the
construction of any additional facilities.
National Fuel also requests authorization to increase the NAOP on
Line G-24(S) from 620 psig to 910 psig. It is stated that Line G-24(S)
is the lateral used to fill and withdraw gas from Galbraith Storage
Field. National Fuel explains that it is seeking this authorization
because Line G-24(S) was replaced pursuant to Commission authorization
in Docket No. CP86-629-000, and pursuant to that order further
Commission authorization is required to increase the MAOP of Line G-
24(S).
Any questions regarding the application may be directed to David W.
Rietz at (716) 857-7949.
Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule
214 of the Commission's Procedural rules (18 CFR 385.214) a motion to
intervene or notice of intervention and pursuant to Section 157.205 of
the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to the
request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefor, the
proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the day
after the time allowed for filing a protest. If a protest is filed and
not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a
protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for
authorization pursuant to Section 7 of the NGA.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
