DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
[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.
