    FGT states that on March 11, 2002, in Docket No. RM96-1-019, the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) issued Order No. 587-
N (Order). In the Order, the Commission amended its regulations 
governing standards for interstate pipeline business operations and 
communications to require that pipelines permit releasing shippers, as 
a condition of a capacity release, to recall released capacity and 
renominate such recalled capacity at each nomination opportunity. The 
Order directs that recalls of released capacity will not be permitted 
to reduce (bump) already scheduled volumes for replacement shippers 
unless the replacement shippers are provided with at least one 
opportunity to reschedule any bumped volumes, which is similar to the 
protection afforded interruptible shippers. The Commission believes 
this rule creates greater flexibility for firm capacity holders on 
interstate pipelines by synchronizing the Commission's regulation of 
recalled capacity with its standards for intra-day nominations. The 
Order requires pipelines to make tariff filings by May 1, 2002 to 
implement provisions of the Order to become effective on July 1, 2002. 
The instant filing is made in compliance with Order No. 587-N.
    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. 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). 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 
under the ``e-Filing'' link.
