[Docket No. RP01-430-000]


Florida Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Tariff Filing

June 1, 2001.

    Take notice that on May 25, 2001, Florida Gas Transmission Company 
(FGT) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Third Revised 
Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheet to become effective June 25, 
2001:

    Second Revised Sheet No. 135A

    FGT states that it is filing the revised tariff sheet to update the 
permissible types of transportation discounts that may be granted by 
FGT, in a manner consistent with FERC approved discounts on other 
pipelines. In Docket No. RP99-353-000, Florida Gas Transmission 
Company, 88 FERC Paragraph 61,093 (1999), the Commission approved 
revised tariff sheets filed by FGT on June 23, 1999, granting FGT the 
right to use six (6) types of transportation discounts without having 
to file the discount agreement as a material deviation from the pro 
forma service agreements, consistent with the Commission's ruling in 
Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America, 84 FERC para. 61,099 (1998) 
and subsequent orders.
    FGT further states that the revised tariff sheet filed herewith 
further modifies the General Terms and Conditions (GTC) of FGT's Tariff 
which are applicable to the various transportation Rate Schedules to 
add language thereto to provide for another permissible form of 
discounting.
    FGT states that in addition its ability to agree to a basic 
discount from the stated maximum rates, FGT proposes to revise the GTC 
by adding additional language to provide for upward or downward 
adjustments to rate components to achieve an agreed upon overall rate 
so long as all rate components remain within their respective minimum 
and maximum amounts. FGT further states that the tariff language 
proposed herein incorporates the requirement that such adjustments made 
to discrete rate components not exceed the maximum amount nor be less 
than the minimum amount for that component established as the basis of 
the underlying rate design method (straight-fixed variable), and that 
they be made only prospectively, and that they not affect the 
determination of refunds that may be due under applicable law for the 
time prior to the adjustment of such components.
    FGT states that copies of the filing were mailed to all customers 
served under the rate schedules affected by the filing and the 
interested state commissions.
    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 http://www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (call 202-208-2222 for assistance). 
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 at http://www.ferc.fed.us/efi/doorbell.htm.
