    Take notice that on November 30, 2001, 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, 2002:

Fiftieth Revised Sheet No. 8A
Forty-Second Revised Sheet No. 8A.01
Forty-Second Revised Sheet No. 8A.02
Forty-Sixth Revised Sheet No. 8B
Thirty-Ninth Revised Sheet No. 8B.01

    FGT states that it is filing the above referenced tariff sheets 
pursuant to the Gas Research Institute's (GRI) Year 2002 Research, 
Development and Demonstration Program and 2002-2006 Five-Year Plan as 
approved by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Order issued 
September 19, 2001 in Docket No. RP01-434. For the year of 2002, the 
funding mechanism includes the approved GRI demand charges of 6.6 cents 
per MMBtu per month (.22 cents per MMBtu stated on a daily basis 
underlying FGT's reservation charges) to be applicable to firm shippers 
with load factors exceeding 50%, 4.07 cents per MMBtu per month (.13 
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 0.55 cents per MMBtu to be applicable 
to all non-discounted interruptible rates and to the usage portion of 
two-part rates. In addition, the 2002 funding mechanism includes a 
volumetric charge of 0.88 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 2001 GRI 
charges.
