          - [Docket No. RP01-132-000]

Take notice that on November 30, 2000, Southern Natural Gas Company (Southern) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Seventh Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets, to become effective January 1, 2001:

Fifty-fourth Revised Sheet No. 14

Seventy-fifth Revised Sheet No. 15

Fifty-fourth Revised Sheet No. 16

Seventy-fifth Revised Sheet No. 17

Thirty-eighth Revised Sheet No. 18

Section 14.2 of Southern's Tariff provides for an annual reconciliation of Southern's storage costs to reflect differences between the cost to Southern of its storage gas inventory and the amount Southern receives for such gas arising out of (i) the purchase and sale of such gas in order to resolve shipper imbalances; and (ii) the purchase and sale of gas as necessary to maintain an appropriate level of storage gas inventory for system management purposes. In the instant filing, Southern submits the rate surcharge to the transportation component of its rates under Rate Schedules FT, FT-NN, and IT resulting from the fixed and realized losses it has incurred from the purchase and sale of its storage gas inventory.

                    Southern states that copies of the filing were served upon Southern's                           ( print page 77359)                        customers and interested state commissions.
