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

    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<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    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.
