Florida Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

August 7, 1998.
    Take notice that on July 31, 1998, Florida Gas Transmission Company 
(FGT), filed in Docket No. CP98-704-000 a request for authorization 
pursuant to sections 157.205 and 157.212 of the Commission's 
Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205 and 157.212) to 
construct, own, and operate a new delivery point, PGS-Worthington 
Springs, on its system to accommodate deliveries of natural gas to the 
State of Florida, Department of Corrections (The State), under FGT's 
blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-553-000 pursuant to 
section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the 
request that is on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection.
    Specifically, FGT proposes to construct, own, and operate a new 
tap, electronic flow measurement (EFM) equipment and approximately 100 
feet of 2-inch connecting pipeline in Union County, Florida to deliver 
natural gas for the State of Florida through a new meter station and 
6.25 miles of 4-inch non-jurisdictional pipeline constructed, owned, 
and operated by TECO Peoples Gas Inc. (TECO). FGT asserts that the new 
delivery point will be added to the existing FTS-1 Service Agreement 
between FGT and The State to allow deliveries of natural gas to TECO's 
new meter station.
    FGT states that this new delivery point will not increase the 
contractual gas quantities nor increase the current certificated level 
of service under the existing FTS-1 Service Agreements. FGT estimates 
the total cost of the proposed construction to be approximately 
$76,000, inclusive of tax gross-up. FGT indicates that TECO will 
reimburse FGT for all costs directly and indirectly incurred by FGT for 
the construction of the new delivery point.
    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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
