FGT states that on December 1, 1999, in Docket No. CP00-40-000, FGT filed for authorization to expand the capacity of its system in order to provide incremental firm transportation service pursuant to Rate Schedule FTS-2 (Phase V Certificate Application). Included as part of the Phase V Certificate Application were the Phase V shippers' FTS-2 service agreements. FGT further states that in its Preliminary Determination on Nonenvironmental Issues dated November 22, 2000 (“PD”) the Commission noted that these service agreements contained certain variations from the FTS-2 Form of Service Agreement contained in FGT's Tariff. The PD directed FGT “to refile them so that they conform with the FTS-2 Form of Service Agreement in its tariff or to develop a generally applicable FTS-2 Form of Service Agreement to conform with the Phase V agreements.” FGT states that the instant filing includes tariff modifications to its FTS-2 Form of Service Agreement to include expansion provisions which generally conform to the expansion-type service agreements filed with the Phase V Certificate Application, and to make the FTS-2 Form of Service Agreement adaptable for incremental service offered as a result of future capacity expansions by FGT.

FGT states that copies of the filing were mailed to all interested parties and state commissions.

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).
