[Docket No. RP02-366-000]


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

June 25, 2002.
    Take notice that on June 19, 2002, Florida Gas Transmission Company 
(FGT) tendered for filing to become part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Third 
Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets, to become effective 
July 1, 2002:

Fifty-Third Revised Sheet No. 8A
Forty-Fifth Revised Sheet No. 8A.01
Forty-Fifth Revised Sheet No. 8A.02
Third Revised Sheet No. 8A.04
Forty-Eighth Revised Sheet No. 8B
Forty-First Revised Sheet No. 8B.01
    FGT states that in Docket No. RP02-163-000 filed on February 25, 
2002, it filed to establish a Base Fuel Reimbursement Charge Percentage 
(Base FRCP) of 3.06 % to become effective for the six-month Summer 
Period beginning April 1, 2002. FGT states in the instant filing, it is 
filing a flex adjustment of 0.25% to be effective July 1, 2002, which, 
when combined with the Base FRCP of 3.06% results in an Effective Fuel 
Reimbursement Charge Percentage of 3.31%. This filing is necessary 
because FGT is currently experiencing higher fuel usage than is being 
recovered in the currently effective FRCP of 3.06%. Increasing the 
Effective FRCP will reduce FGT's underrecovery of fuel and reduce the 
Unit Fuel Surcharge in the next Summer Period.
    FGT states that the tariff sheets listed above are being filed 
pursuant to Section 27.A.2.b of the General Terms and Conditions of 
FGT's Tariff, which provides for flex adjustments to the Base FRCP. 
Pursuant to the terms of Section 27.A.2.b, a flex adjustment shall 
become effective without prior FERC approval provided that such flex 
adjustment does not exceed 0.50%, is effective at the beginning of a 
month, is posted on FGT's EBB at least five working days prior to the 
nomination deadline, and is filed no more than sixty and at least seven 
days before the proposed effective date. The instant filing comports 
with these provisions and FGT has posted notice of the flex adjustment 
prior to the instant filing.
    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''
