[Docket No. RP01-61-000]


Florida Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Proposed Changes in 
FERC Gas Tariff

October 27, 2000.
    Take notice that on October 23, 2000, Florida Gas Transmission 
Company (FGT) tendered for filing to become part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, Third Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets, 
effective November 1, 2000:

Forty-Second Revised Sheet No. 8A
Thirty-Fourth Revised Sheet No. 8A.01
Thirty-Fourth Revised Sheet No. 8A.02
Thirty-Eighth Revised Sheet No. 8B
Thirty-First Revised Sheet No. 8B.01

    FGT states that in Docket No. RP00-519-000 filed on August 31, 
2000, FGT filed to establish a Base Fuel Reimbursement Charge 
Percentage (Base FRCP) of 3.14% to become effective for the six-month 
Winter Period beginning October 1, 2000 reflecting FGT's actual fuel 
usage and unaccounted for gas during the immediately preceding Winter 
Period. In the instant filing, FGT is filing a flex adjustment of 
(0.39)% to be effective November 1, 2000, which, when combined with the 
Base FRCP of 3.14%, results in an Effective Fuel Reimbursement Charge 
Percentage of 2.75%. FGT states that this flex adjustment is necessary 
to reflect the lower fuel usage currently being experienced on its 
system.
    FGT states that the tariff sheets listed above are being filed 
pursuant to Section 27.A.2.b of the General Terms and Conditions of 
FGT's Tariff, which provides for flex adjustments to the Base FRCP. 
Pursuant to the terms of Section 27.A.2.b, a flex adjustment shall 
become effective without prior FERC approval provided that such flex 
adjustment does not exceed 0.50%, is effective at the beginning of a 
month, is posted on FGT's EBB at least five working days prior to the 
nomination deadline, and is filed no more than sixty and at least seven 
days before the proposed effective date. FGT states that the instant 
filing comports with these provisions and FGT has posted notice of the 
flex adjustment prior to the instant filing.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, in 
accordance with Sections 385.214 or 385.211 of the Commission's Rules 
and Regulations. All such motions

or protests must be filed in accordance with Section 154.210 of the 
Commission's Regulations. Protests will be considered by the Commission 
in determining the appropriate action to be taken, but will not serve 
to make protestants parties to the proceedings. Any person wishing to 
become a party must file a motion to intervene. Copies of this filing 
are on file with the Commission and are available for public inspection 
in the Public Reference Room. This filing may be viewed on the web at
