South Georgia Natural Gas Company; Proposed Changes to FERC Gas 
Tariff

June 3, 1999.
    Take notice that on May 28, 1999, South Georgia Natural Gas Company 
(South Georgia) tendered for filing to become part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1, the following revised tariff 
sheets to be effective July 1, 1999:

Thirteenth Revised Sheet No. 5
Twelfth Revised Sheet No. 6
1st Alternate Thirteenth Revised Sheet No. 5
1st Alternate Twelfth Revised Sheet No. 6

    South Georgia states that the instant filing is submitted pursuant 
to Section 19.2 of the General Terms and Conditions of its Tariff to 
adjust its fuel retention percentage (FRP) for all transportation 
services on its system effective July 1, 1999. The derivation of the 
revised FRP is based on South Georgia's gas required for operations 
(GRO) for the twelve-month period ending April 30, 1999, adjusted for 
the balance accumulated in the Deferred GRO Account at the end of said 
period, divided by the transportation volumes received during the same 
twelve-month period. In the filing, South Georgia request a limited 
waiver of the formula used in Section 19.2 to determine the FRP. As set 
forth more fully in filing, such request is based on South Georgia's 
belief that certain GRO volumes recorded in 1998 were inaccurate. As a 
result, South Georgia proposes to base the FRP on those months in which 
reliable data is available, as annualized to cover the entire twelve-
month period for the FRP. Based on this calculation, the revised FRP is 
1.93% which is a decrease from the currently effective FRP of 2.24%.
    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, NW, 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 in the Public 
Reference Room. This filing may be viewed on the web at http://
