    any of the services performed or to be performed by KGS, to the 
    jurisdiction of the Commission under the Natural Gas Act or the 
    Commission's regulations thereunder.

    Company (FGT), 1400 Smith Street, P.O. Box 1188, Houston, Texas 77251-

    Secs. 157.205 and 157.212 of the Commission's Regulations under the 
    Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 157.212) for authorization to

    Company of Florida (CGF) in Brevard County, Florida, under FGT's

        FGT proposes to install a meter station, to be known as the Indian 
    River Meter Station, to serve as a delivery point for CGF. It is stated 
    that the delivery point will permit deliveries of up to 480 MMBtu 
    equivalent of natural gas per hour. It is asserted that the deliveries 
    will be made under the terms of the existing FTS-1 service agreement 
    between FGT and CGF. It is further asserted that the deliveries are 
    within CGF's existing entitlement from FGT and that the deliveries 
    would not disadvantage FGT's other customers. It is estimated that 
    construction of the facilities would cost $81,000, to be reimbursed by 
    CGF.

    Standard Paragraphs
    
        F. Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
    reference to said application should on or before the comment date, 
    file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 
    20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in accordance with the 
    requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 
    CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act 
    (18 CFR 157.10). All protests filed with the Commission will be 
    considered by it in determining the appropriate action to be taken but 
    will not serve to make the protestants parties to the proceeding. Any 
    person wishing to become a party to a proceeding or to participate as a 
    party in any hearing therein must file a motion to intervene in 
    accordance with the Commission's Rules.
        Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in 
    and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy 
    Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act and 
    the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, a hearing will be 
    held without further notice before the Commission or its designee on 
    this application if no motion to intervene is filed within the time 
    required herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter 
    finds that a grant of the certificate and/or permission and approval 
    for the proposed abandonment are required by the public convenience and 
    necessity. If a motion for leave to intervene is timely filed, or if 
    the Commission on its own motion believes that a formal hearing is 
    required, further notice of such hearing will be duly given.
        Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised, 
    it will be unnecessary for applicant to appear or be represented at the 
    hearing.
        G. 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 time 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.
    Lois D. Cashell,
    Secretary.
