[Docket No. CP19-4-000]


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

    Take notice that on October 11, 2018, National Fuel Gas Supply 
Corporation (National Fuel), 6363 Main Street, Williamsville, New York 
14221, filed in Docket No. CP19-4-000, a Prior Notice Request pursuant 
to sections 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, requesting authorization to plug and 
abandon one injection/withdrawal (I/W) well (Zoar Well 804-I) and 
abandon in place approximately 212 feet of 4-inch-diameter associated 
well line (AW 804) in the Zoar Storage Field located in Eerie County, 
New York. National Fuel states elevated levels of corrosion were found 
in the production casing of Zoar Well 804-I during evaluations and 
rehabilitation would be cost prohibitive due to the well's 
configuration and historically low volume deliverability, all as more 
fully described 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 
[email protected] or call toll-free, (866) 208-3676 or TTY, 
(202) 502-8659.
    Any questions regarding this prior notice should be directed to 
Alice A. Curtiss, Deputy General Counsel, National Fuel Gas Supply 
Corporation, 6363 Main Street, Williamsville, New York 14221, by 
telephone at (716) 857-7075, by fax at (716) 857-7206, or by email at

    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 60 days after 
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 and pursuant to section 157.205 of 
the regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.205), 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 filing a protest. If a protest is filed and 
not withdrawn within 30 days after the allowed time for filing a 
protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for 
authorization pursuant to section 7 of the NGA.
    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9, 
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either: 
Complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the 
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or issue a 
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule 
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other 
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of 
the EA for this proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's 
public record for this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of 
Schedule for Environmental Review will serve to notify federal and 
state agencies of the timing for the completion of all necessary 
reviews, and the subsequent need to complete all federal authorizations 
within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's EA.
    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 commenters will be 
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list and will be 
notified of any meetings associated with the Commission's environmental 
review process. Environmental commenters will not be required to serve 
copies of filed documents on all other parties. However, the non-party 
commenters will not receive copies of all documents filed by other 
parties or issued by the Commission and will not have the right to seek 
court review of the Commission's final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 
protests, and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link 
at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should 
submit an original and 3 copies of the protest or intervention to the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Washington, 
DC 20426.

    Dated: October 22, 2018.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
