DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP09-452-000]


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

August 11, 2009.
    Take notice that on August 5, 2009, National Fuel Gas Supply
Corporation (National Fuel), 6363 Main Street, Williamsville, New York
14221, filed in Docket No. CP09-452-000, a prior notice request
pursuant to sections 157.205 and 157.216 of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission's regulations under the Natural Gas Act for
authorization to abandon certain minor underground natural gas storage
facilities, located in Jefferson 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
on the Web at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter
the docket number excluding the last three digits in the docket number
field to access the document. For assistance, contact FERC at
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or call toll-free, (866) 208-3676 or TTY,
(202) 502-8659.
    Specifically, National Fuel proposes to plug and abandon one
injection/withdrawal well, Well 4885 and to abandon the associated well
line GW-4885, consisting of approximately 500 feet of 4-inch diameter
pipeline, in the Galbraith Storage Field, located in Jefferson County,
Pennsylvania. National Fuel states that the well 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 declares that the well line will serve no purpose once
the well is plugged and abandoned. National Fuel asserts that due to
the poor performance of Well 4885, 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, or call 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 Natural Gas Act (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.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments,
protests, and interventions via the Internet in lieu of paper. See 18
CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web
site (http://www.ferc.gov) under the ``e-Filing'' link.

Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
