National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

August 1, 1996.
    Take notice that on July 24, 1996, National Fuel Gas Supply 
Corporation (National Supply), 10 Lafayette Square, Buffalo, New York 
14203, filed in Docket No. CP96-661-000, a request pursuant to 
Sec. 157.205 and 157.211 of the Commission's Regulations under the 
Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205 and 157.211) for authorization to 
construct and operate a new sales tap in the Town of Lancaster, Erie 
County, New York. The subject tap is proposed to render service to an 
existing firm transportation customer of National Supply, National Fuel 
Gas Distribution Corporation (Distribution). National Supply makes such 
request, under its blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP83-4-000, 
pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set 
forth in the request on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection.
    National Supply states that it intends to deliver up to 2,628,000 
Mcf annually to Distribution at the new sales tap, under National 
Supply's EFT Rate Schedule.
    National Supply states that the volumes to be delivered at the 
proposed tap will be within the certificated entitlement of 
Distribution, and that the proposed service will have a minimal impact 
on National Supply's peak day and annual deliveries. It is stated that 
Distribution will reimburse the estimated $90,000 construction cost.
    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 Sec. 157.205 of the 
Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (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not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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 Natural Gas Act.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
