[Docket No. CP98-565-000]


National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; Notice of Application

May 28, 1998.
    Take notice that on May 22, 1998, National Fuel Gas Supply 
Corporation (National Fuel), 10 Lafayette Square, Buffalo, New York 
14203, filed in Docket No. CP98-565-000 an application pursuant to 
Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act for authorization to abandon 2 firm 
transportation services in the state of New York, all as more fully set 
forth in the application on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection.
    National Fuel requests permission and approval to abandon the 
transportation services performed under National Fuel's Rate Schedules 
X-59 and X-60 for Indeck-Oswego Limited Partnership and Indeck-Yerkes 
Limited Partnership. It is stated that both shippers have requested 
that the transportation services be converted to Part 284 
transportation service under National Fuel's FT Rate Schedule. It is 
asserted that no customers of National Fuel would be adversely affected 
by the proposed abandonment.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
reference to said application should on or before June 5, 1998, file 
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., 
Washington, D.C. 20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in 
accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules and Practice 
and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the 
Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10). All protests filed with the Commission 
will be considered by it in determining the appropriate action to be 
taken but will not serve to make the protestants parties to the 
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party to a proceeding or to 
participate as a party in any hearing therein must file a motion to 
intervene in accordance with the Commission's Rules.
    Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in 
any subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission by Section 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act and 
the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, a hearing will be 
held without further notice before the Commission or its designee on 
this application if no motion to intervene is filed within the time 
required herein, if

the Commission on its own review of the matter finds that a grant of 
the certificate is required by the public convenience and necessity. If 
a motion for leave to intervene is timely filed, of if the Commission 
on its own motion believes that a formal hearing is required, further 
notice of such hearing will be duly given.
    Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised, 
it will be unnecessary for National Rule to appear or be represented at 
the hearing.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
