[Docket No. CP95-178-000]


Williams Natural Gas Co.; Notice of Application

February 1, 1995.
    Take notice that on January 26, 1995, Williams Natural Gas Company 
(Williams), Post Office Box 3288, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74101, filed in 
Docket No. CP95-178-000 an application pursuant to Sections 7(b) and 
7(c) of the Natural Gas Act, requesting permission and approval to 
abandon approximately 2,200 feet of 8-inch lateral pipeline and 
authorization to construct and operate approximately 2,300 feet of 
replacement line consisting of 2-inch and 6-inch lateral pipeline in 
Wilson County, Kansas, all as more fully set forth in the application 
of file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Specifically, Williams states that it proposes to replace line YB 
across the road from its existing location in order to avoid a 
Department of Transportation Class III designated area and to eliminate 
1920's vintage pipe. Williams further stated that the replacement will 
insure continued reliable service to the Neodesha, Kansas area.
    It is estimated that the cost of the proposed abandonment will be 
approximately $2,000. It is further estimated that the replacement 
facilities for this project will cost approximately $168,861, which 
Williams proposes to finance with funds on hand.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
reference to said application should on or before February 22, 1995, 
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 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 a grant of the certificate and 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 Williams to appear or be represented at the 
hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
