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

April 16, 2009.
    Take notice that on April 14, 2009, National Fuel Gas Supply 
Corporation (National Fuel), 6363 Main Street, Williamsville, New York 
14221-5887, filed a prior notice request pursuant to Parts 157.205 and 
157.216 of the Commission's regulations under the Natural Gas Act (NGA) 
and National Fuel's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP83-4-
000, for authorization to abandon one injection/withdrawal well in 
Wharton Storage Field located in Potter County, Pennsylvania, all as 
more fully set forth in the application, which is on file with the 
Commission and open to public inspection. The filing may also be viewed

    Specifically, National Fuel proposes to abandon one injection/
withdrawal well (Well WH-34) and the associated well line (TRW-34) in 
Wharton Storage Field located in Potter County, Pennsylvania. National 
Fuel states that Well WH-34 is no longer useful due to poor injection 
performance and poor deliverability and needs to be reconditioned or 
plugged due to deterioration of the well casing. National Fuel asserts 
that all work will be confined to the existing well site. National Fuel 
states that after Well WH-34 is plugged and abandoned, the well site 
will be restored and revegetated. National Fuel also proposes to 
abandon in place well line TRW-34, totaling approximately 1,200 feet of 
6-inch diameter well line. National Fuel asserts that the cost to 
construct similar facilities today is approximately $1 million. 
National Fuel avers that the proposed abandonment will not result in a 
material decrease in service to customers.
    Any questions regarding the application should be directed to David 
W. Reitz, Deputy General Counsel, National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation, 
6363 Main Street, Williamsville, New York 14221-5887, at (716) 857-
7949.
    Any person may, within 60 days after the 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. Any person filing to intervene or the Commission's staff 
may, pursuant to section 157.205 of the Commission's regulations under 
the NGA (18 CFR 157.205) file a protest to the request. If no protest 
is filed within the time allowed therefore, the proposed activity shall 
be deemed to be authorized effective the day after the time allowed for 
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 NGA.
