National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; Notice of Application

July 19, 2006.
    Take notice that on July 10, 2006, National Fuel Gas Supply 
Corporation (National Fuel), 6363 Main Street, Williamsville, New York 
14221, filed in Docket No. CP06-417-000, an application pursuant to 
section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and part 157 of the 
Commission's Regulations, for authorization to convert two observation 
wells to withdrawal status and for the construction and operation of 
approximately 1,340 feet of 4-inch diameter pipeline located in 
Allegany County, New York, all as more fully set forth in the 
application which is on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection. This filing is accessible on-line at http://www.ferc.gov, 

using the ``eLibrary'' link and is available for review in the 
Commission's Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an 
``eSubscription'' link on the Web site that enables subscribers to 
receive e-mail notification when a document is added to a subscribed 
docket(s). For assistance with any FERC Online service, please e-mail 
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov, or call (866) 208-3676 (toll free). For 

TTY, call (202) 502-8659.
    In its application, National Fuel proposes the conversion of Wells 
SC-517 and SC-519 from observation to withdrawal status to facilitate 
the recovery of gas that has migrated from National Fuel's Beech Hill 
Storage Field into the previously certificated Beech Hill Annex area 
and allow for more effective pool operation. The filing further 
indicates that the purpose of the construction of the 4-inch pipeline 
is to connect the wells to National Fuel's existing pipelines in Beech 
Hill. The total cost of the project is estimated to be approximately 
$1.6 million.

    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to 
David W. Reitz, Deputy General Counsel for National Fuel, 6363 Main 
Street, Williamsville, New York 14221, or call at (716) 857-7949.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of 
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by 
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or 
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a 
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person 
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by 
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all 
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must 
submit 14 copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a 
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only 
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders 
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have 
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with 
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and 
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. 
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the 
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will 
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's 
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project 
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly 
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of 
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments 
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commentors will be 
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive 
copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings 
associated with the Commission's environmental review process. 
Environmental commentors will not be required to serve copies of filed 
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commentors will 
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by 
the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents 
issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court 
review of the Commission's final order.
    Comments, protests and interventions may be filed electronically 
via the Internet in lieu of paper. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and 
the instructions on the Commission's Web site under the ``e-Filing'' 
link at http://www.ferc.gov. The Commission strongly encourages 

intervenors to file electronically. Persons unable to file 
electronically should submit an original and 14 copies of the protest 
or intervention to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First 
Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426.
    Comment Date: 5 p.m. Eastern Time on August 9, 2006.

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
