[Docket No. CP97-584-000]


Williams Natural Gas Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

June 24, 1997.
    Take notice that on June 16, 1997, Williams Natural Gas Company 
(Williams), Post Office Box 3288, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74101, filed in 
Docket No. CP97-584-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205, 
157.212(a), and 157.216(b) of the Commission's Regulations under the 
Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 157.212(a), and 157.216(b)) for 
authorization to relocate and replace the Burlington town border 
meeting setting and appurtenant facilities, located in Alfalfa County, 
Oklahoma. Williams makes such request under its blanket certificate 
issued in Docket No. CP82-479-000 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.
    Specifically, Williams is seeking authorization to abandon, by 
reclaim, the unreliable Burlington town border meter setting and 
appurtenant facilities which are located on a railroad right-of-way. It 
is indicated that the railroad is slated to be abandoned and that after 
such abandonment, the right-of-way will be returned to the landowners. 
Williams is also proposing in this proceeding to install a new size-
for-size meter setting and appurtenant facilities at an existing 
location in Alfalfa County, to replace the facilities proposed to be 
abandoned in this proceeding.
    It is indicated that the most recent annual volume through the 
Burlington town border setting was 12,100 Dt, with a peak day volume of 
105 Dt. Williams states that it does not expect the volume to change as 
a result of the proposal in this proceeding. Indications are that the 
Town of Burlington support Williams intent.
    Williams estimates the cost to replace and relocate the Burlington 
meter setting at $43,818, and the cost to reclaim the old facilities at 
approximately $2,683.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after 
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission's 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.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
