[Docket No. CP97-629-000]


Williams Natural Gas Company; Notice of Request under Blanket 
Authorization

July 17, 1997.
    Take notice that on July 10, 1997, Williams Natural Gas Company 
(WNG), One Williams Center, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74101, filed in Docket No. 
CP97-629-000, a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 157.212 of the 
Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205 and 
157.212) for authorization to utilize facilities, originally installed 
for the delivery to NGPA Section 311 transportation gas to ONG 
Transmission Company (ONG) in Woodward County, Oklahoma, for purposes 
other than NGPA Section 311 transportation, under WNG's 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 which 
is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    WNG seeks authorization to use the facilities, commonly known as 
the Mutual interconnect, for transportation and delivery of gas under 
Part 284 of the Commission's Regulations. WNG states the cost to 
acquire and install the facilities was $965,138, which will be 
reimbursed through a new firm transportation agreement with a third 
party. WNG relates that it began delivering gas to ONG through the 
Section 311 facilities on July 1, 1997. WNG says the initial delivery 
was 20,000 Dth. ONG estimates that peak day deliveries will be 
approximately 50,000 Dth with an annual volume of 9,125,000 Dth.
    WNG states that this change is not prohibited by an existing tariff 
and that it has sufficient capacity to accomplish the deliveries 
specified without detriment or disadvantage to its other customers. WNG 
says it has sent a copy of this request to the Oklahoma Corporation 
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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
