[Docket No. RP02-97-000]


National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; Notice of Tariff Filing

December 6, 2001.
    Take notice that on November 30, 2001, National Fuel Gas Supply 
Corporation (National) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, Fourth Revised Volume No. 1, Forty Fifth Revised Sheet No. 9 
and Fifth Revised Sheet No. 43, with a proposed effective date of 
January 1, 2002.
    National states that pursuant to Article III, Section 1, of the 
approved settlement at Docket Nos. RP94-367-000, et al., National is 
required to recalculate the maximum Firm Gathering (FG) rate annually 
to reflect: (a) The changes in the FG reservation determinants based on 
the FG throughput for the prior 12 months ended October 31; (b) an 
annual reduction of 2.5 percent in direct Operation and Maintenance 
Costs; (c) the costs resulting from operation of Sections 2 and 3 of 
Article III of the settlement; and (d) changes in the IG revenues to be 
subtracted from the Gathering Cost-of-Service based on the maximum IG 
rate in effect each month during the prior 12 months ended October 31 
times the IG throughput for the same period. The recalculation produced 
a negative FG rate. Since the minimum FG reservation rate stated in 
National's tariff is $0.0000, the maximum FG reservation rate will 
reflect a rate of $0.0000.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE, Washington, DC 20426, in 
accordance with Sections 385.214 or 385.211 of the Commission's Rules 
and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed in 
accordance with 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 proceedings. 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. This filing may
