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

December 5, 2000.
    Take notice that on November 30, 2000, Florida Gas Transmission 
Company (FGT) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Third 
Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets, with an effective 
date of January 1, 2001:

Forty-Fifth Revised Sheet No. 8A
Thirty-Seventh Revised Sheet No. 8A.01
Thirty-Seventh Revised Sheet No. 8A.02
Forty-First Revised Sheet No. 8B
Thirty-Fourth Revised Sheet No. 8B.01

    FGT states that it is filing the above referenced tariff sheets 
pursuant to the January 21, 1998, Stipulation and Agreement Concerning 
GRI Funding (GRI Settlement) as approved by the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission Order issued April 29, 1998 in Docket No. RP97-
199-003. For the year of 2001, the funding mechanism includes the 
approved GRI demand charges of 9 cents per MMBtu per month (.30 cents 
per MMBtu stated on a daily basis underlying FGT's reservation charges) 
to be applicable to firm shippers with load factors exceeding 50%, 5.5 
cents per MMBtu per month (.18 cents per MMBtu stated on a daily basis 
underlying FGT's reservation charges) to be applicable to firm shippers 
with load factors of 50% or less and a volumetric charge of 0.70 cents 
per MMBtu to be applicable to all non-discounted interruptible rates 
and to the usage portion of two-part rates. In addition, the 2001 
funding mechanism includes a volumetric charge of 1.10 cents per MMBtu 
to be applicable to all one-part small customer rates. This funding 
mechanism provides for a decrease in GRI charges as compared to the 
currently effective 2000 GRI charges.
    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 Section 154.210 of the Commission's Regulations.
