[Docket No. RP03-77-000]

 
Reliant Energy Services, Inc., Complainant, v. Florida Gas 
Transmission Company, Respondent; Notice of Complaint and Request for 
Fast Track Processing

November 18, 2002.
    Take notice that on November 15, 2002, Reliant Energy Services, 
Inc. (RES) filed a Complaint and Request for Fast Track Processing 
against Florida Gas Transmission Company (FGT) requesting that the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) find that FGT is in 
violation of its tariff by demanding a letter of credit far in excess 
of that permitted by the creditworthiness provisions of FGT's tariff 
and excluding, on an unduly discriminatory basis in violation of 
sections 5 and 7 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA), RES from an expansion 
project unless RES posts a letter of credit far in excess of that 
permitted by the creditworthiness provisions of FGT's tariff. RES also 
contends that FGT has indicated an intention to build an expansion 
project that is inconsistent with its certificate authorization. RES 
requests that the Commission issue an order finding and declaring that 
FGT's notification to RES that FGT intends to terminate its contractual 
obligation to provide firm transportation service to RES through use of 
the Phase VI facilities is unduly discriminatory, in violation of FGT's 
tariff, the Commission's certificate issued to FGT for its phase VI 
Facilities expansion in Docket No. CP02-27-000, and the NGA.
    A copy of the filing was served upon the Respondent.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest this filing should 
file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street,

Commission's rules of practice and procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and

protestants parties to the proceeding. Any person wishing to become a 
party must file a motion to intervene. The answer to the complaint and 
all comments, interventions or protests must be filed on or before
