[Docket No. CP02-138-000]


Florida Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

April 9, 2002.
    Take notice that on April 3, 2002, Florida Gas Transmission Company 
(FGT), 1400 Smith Street, Houston Texas 77002, filed in Docket No. 
CP02-138-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 157.211(b) of 
the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 
157.211(b)) for authorization to construct and operate a delivery point 
located in St. Lucie County, Florida, under FGT's blanket certificate 
issued in Docket No. CP82-553-000 pursuant to Section 7(c) of the 
Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the request.
    Copies of this filing are on file with the Commission and are 
available for public inspection. This filing may also be viewed on the 
web at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``Rims'' link, select ``Docket#'' 
and follow the instructions (call 202-208-2222 for assistance).
    FGT requests authorization to construct and operate delivery point 
facilities, consisting of a 4-inch tap valve, connecting pipe and 
electronic flow measurement instrumentation, to serve Tropicana 
Products, Inc. (Tropicana). FGT states that it would use the facilities 
to transport up to 6,400 MMBtu equivalent of natural gas per day on a 
firm basis under capacity obtained through releases from existing 
certificated levels and therefore would not have an impact on FGT's 
peak day delivery. FGT estimates the cost of the facilities to be 
$111,775 and states that FGT would be reimbursed by Tropicana for all 
costs associated with the facilities. FGT states further that Tropicana 
would construct approximately 2,300 feet of connecting pipe downstream 
from FGT's facilities in the existing FT. Pierce South Utilities 
Authority. FGT asserts that it has sufficient capacity to render the 
proposed service without detriment or disadvantage to its other 
existing customers.
    Any questions regarding the application should be directed to 
Stephen T. Veatch, Director, Certificates and Regulatory Reporting, at: 
(713) 853-6549.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after 
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule 
214 of the Commission's Procedural Rules (18 CFR 385.214) a motion to 
intervene or notice of intervention and, pursuant to Section 157.205 of 
the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205), a protest 
to the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed 
therefor, the proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized 
effective the day after the time allowed for filing a protest. If a 
protest is filed and not withdrawn within 30 days after the allowed for 
filing a protest, the instant request shall be treated as an 
application for authorization pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas 
Act.
    Comments, protests and interventions may be filed electronically 
via the Internet in lieu of paper. See, 18 CFR385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and 
the instructions on the Commission's web site under the ``e-filing'' 
link.

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
