[Docket No. CP97-81-000]


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

November 14, 1996.
    Take notice that on November 4, 1996, National Fuel Gas Supply 
Corporation (National Fuel), 10 Lafayette Square, Buffalo, New York 
14203, filed in Docket No. CP97-81-000 a request pursuant to Sections 
157.205 and 157.216 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural 
Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 157.216) for authorization to abandon a 
delivery point connection located in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, 
under National Fuel's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP83-4-
000, pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully 
set forth in the request that is on file with the Commission and open 
to public inspection.
    National Fuel proposes to abandon a delivery point connection which 
provides service to one residential customer of National Fuel Gas 
Distribution Corporation. National Fuel states this delivery point is 
located along a non-jurisdictional production pipeline that will be 
conveyed to Contract Services, a producer of natural gas located in 
Pennsylvania, who will assume service obligations to this customer 
following conveyance of these facilities.
    National Fuel advises the affected customer is aware of the 
proposed sale of facilities to Contract Services and does not object to 
this sale and the two parties have entered into an Agreement for the 
Transfer of Service, dated July 18, 1996. National Fuel states such 
transfer is subject to the approval of the Pennsylvania Public Utility 
Commission.
    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 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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.
