National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; Notice of Tariff Filing

August 9, 1996.
    Take notice that on August 6, 1996, National Fuel Gas Supply 
Corporation (National) tendered for filing various tariff sheets as 
part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Third Revised Volume No. 1, with a 
proposed effective date of September 5, 1996.
    National proposed to establish a new Firm Advance Service (FAS) 
under which National, using its existing facilities, will provide a new 
firm version of its Interruptible Advance Service (IAS) as an 
additional option to its customers.
    National states that the FAS service will be the firm equivalent of 
the IAS service. This service is being proposed in response to customer 
requests to be allowed to predetermine when the advanced gas will be 
returned. Thus, the FAS service will have a firm schedule for the 
advance and for the return of gas.
    Further, National states that the services it is offering to 
perform will not interfere with the firm services it currently 
provides. In addition, there will be no cost to the current firm 
customers, because National is not proposing to expand its facilities; 
rather, existing customers will have enhanced service options by the 
addition of this new service.
    National states that copies of this filing were served upon the 
company's jurisdictional customers and upon the Regulatory Commissions 
of the States of New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Massachusetts, 
and New Jersey.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protests said filing should 
file a motion to intervene protest with the Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, DC., 20426, in 
accordance with Rules 211 or 214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice 
and Procedures (18 CFR 385.211 or 385.214). All such motions of 
protests must be filed as provided in Section 154.210 of the 
Commission's Regulations. Protests will be considered by the Commission 
in determining the appropriate action to be taken but will not serve to 
make protestants parties to the proceeding. Any person wishing to 
become a party must file a motion to intervene. Copies of this filing 
are on file with the Commission and are available for public 
inspection.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
