NOTICE OF PROPOSED AGENCY ACTION
ORDER APPROVING FIRM SERVICES AGREEMENT BETWEEN
PEOPLES GAS SYSTEM. INC. AND SEACOAST GAS TRANSMISSION, LLC
BY THE COMMISSION:
NOTICE 	is 	hereby 	given by 	the 	Florida 	Public 	Service Commission 	that 	the 	action
discussed herein 	is preliminary 	in nature and will become 	final unless a person whose 	interests
are 	substantially 	affected 	files a 	petition 	for a formal proceeding, pursuant 	to Rule 	25-22.029,
Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.).
BACKGROUND
On June 	5, 2026, SeaCoast Gas Transmission, LLC 	(SeaCoast) 	filed a 	petition seeking
approval of a firm 	service agreement with Peoples Gas System, 	Inc. 	(Peoples, 	collectively, 	the
Parties) 	dated May 	20, 	2026. 	SeaCoast 	operates 	as 	an 	intrastate 	natural 	gas 	transmission
company as defined 	in Section 368.103, Florida 	Statutes 	(F.S.), and only transports natural 	gas.
Peoples 	is 	a 	local 	distribution company 	which owns 	and 	operates 	natural 	gas 	distribution
facilities to serve retail customers and 	is subject to our regulatory jurisdiction under Chapter 366.
By Order No. PSC-08-0747-TRF-GP, 	SeaCoast received 	approval of an 	intrastate 	gas
pipeline 	tariff that allows 	it 	to 	construct and operate 	intrastate pipeline 	facilities and to 	actively
pursue agreements with natural gas customers. 1 SeaCoast provides transportation service only; 	it
does 	not 	engage 	in 	the 	sale 	of 	natural 	gas. 	Pursuant 	to 	Order No. 	PSC-08-0747-TRF-GP,
SeaCoast 	is 	allowed 	to 	enter 	into 	certain 	gas 	transmission 	agreements 	without 	our 	prior
approval. However, SeaCoast 	is requesting our approval of this proposed agreement 	as 	it does
not 	fit any of the 	criteria enumerated 	in the 	tariff for which our approval would not be required.

approval of natural gas transmission pipeline tariff by SeaCoast Gas Transmission, LLC.

ORDER NO. PSC-2026-0350-PAA-GU
DOCKET NO. 20260088-GU
PAGE 2
The Parties are subsidiaries of TECO Gas Operations, Inc., and agreements between affiliated
companies must be approved by us pursuant to Section 368.105, F.S., and Order No. PSC-08-
0747-TRF-GP. 	In 2015,2 2019,3 and 20214 we approved similar transportation agreements
between Peoples and SeaCoast.
The proposed Agreement is contained in Attachment A to this order. 	Attachment B to
this order contains the project map. 	During the evaluation of the instant petition, two Data
Requests to the Parties were issued for which responses were received on July 8, 2026, and July
28, 2026.5 We have jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to Sections 366.05(1), 366.06, and
368.105, F.S.
DECISION
Peoples has entered into the proposed Agreement with SeaCoast to expand gas flow into
Fort Myers, Naples, and the surrounding areas in Lee and Collier Counties to serve growth and
safeguard system reliability for existing and new customers. To provide intrastate transportation
of gas to Peoples, SeaCoast would construct an interconnection with an existing Florida Gas
Transmission Company, LLC (FGT) pipeline serving Lee and Collier Counties. SeaCoast would
also construct an approximately 24 mile, eight-inch steel high-pressure transmission pipeline
originating 	at 	the 	new 	FGT 	and 	SeaCoast 	interconnection 	and 	continuing 	south 	to 	the
intersection of Corkscrew Road and State Road 41. SeaCoast would also construct two
interconnections between SeaCoast and Peoples along the new pipeline, the first at Palm Beach
Boulevard and the second at Corkscrew Road and State Road 41. The planned pipeline extension
would resolve existing capacity constraints by boosting system pressure, increasing delivery
capacity, and ensuring long-term operational reliability.6
In paragraph 10 of the Petition, SeaCoast explained that it estimates the permitting
process would take approximately 10 months, with construction anticipated to begin in
September 	2027. 	SeaCoast 	estimated 	that 	the 	proposed 	transmission 	pipeline 	would 	be
completed by the third quarter of 2028. SeaCoast stated that it projects approximately 37,961
existing customers, including 34,396 residential and 3,589 commercial/industrial customers,
would benefit from the expansion project through increased resiliency and reliability.7 In
addition, SeaCoast stated that the proposed project would support additional customer growth
and customer growth that has already occurred.

The negotiated reservation charge (confidential) included in the proposed Agreement is
designed to allow SeaCoast to recover its operational and maintenance costs, depreciation, taxes,
and return on investment associated with the new transmission pipeline.8 SeaCoast stated in
paragraph 12 of its Petition that the rate set forth in the Agreement is a market-based rate
reflecting the costs expected to be incurred under prevailing market conditions. SeaCoast
asserted that the agreement is just, reasonable and not unreasonably preferential or unduly
discriminatory, 	and 	therefore, 	consistent 	with 	Section 	368.105(3)(b), 	F.S. 	While 	specific
circumstances vary by projects due to pipe sizing, construction conditions, permitting, etc., we
find that the information provided by SeaCoast for the proposed pipeline appears reasonable and
comparable to similar agreements.
Consideration of Potential Alternatives to the SeaCoast Extension
In response to Staff’s First Data Request, SeaCoast stated that Peoples did not issue a
formal request for proposals for the construction of the proposed pipeline facilities. 	SeaCoast
explained that Peoples evaluated other options to meet demand and improve delivery of gas to
customers in Lee and Collier Counties. 	Such alternatives included compression, additional
pipeline facilities, a larger diameter pipeline, and an interstate pipeline solution.9 	Installing a
compressor station was rejected due to cost limitations and maximum allowable operating
pressure 	(MAOP) 	safety 	boundaries 	and 	it 	also 	failed 	to 	resolve 	the 	single-gate-station
vulnerability; constructing a pipeline across Corkscrew Boulevard lacked the required pressure
to support the system; a larger pipe size failed to provide a meaningful capacity increase because
the core backbone system is restricted by an existing 8-inch pipeline diameter; and, expanding
the single existing gate station was deemed technically unfeasible because it cannot push enough
gas to the farthest southern reaches of the system.10 	Seacoast explained that FGT provided a
proposal to expand its system to meet the project requirement. 	However, FGT’s proposal was
not cost-effective in comparison to the proposal from SeaCoast and could not be completed
within Peoples’ time requirements.11
The Parties further explained, in response to Staff’s Data Request, that Peoples selected
the SeaCoast project because it provides Peoples with the best option to achieve long-term
system supply, reliability, pressure support, and cost effectiveness for the customers in Lee and
Collier Counties.
Peoples’ Cost Recovery of Payments to SeaCoast
Peoples' payments to SeaCoast would be included in the calculation of the Purchased Gas
Adjustment (PGA) clause factor. Consistent with the methodology approved by us in Docket No.
20000810-GU, a portion of the costs would be paid by transportation customers taking service

under Peoples' Natural Choice Transportation Service program via the swing service charge
mechanism.12 	Swing service charge revenues collected from transportation customers would
then be credited back to the PGA. Sales customers purchase their gas from Peoples and are
subject to Peoples' PGA charge.
Based on the Petition and the Parties' responses to Staff’s Data Requests, the Parties have
supported the importance of the need for pipeline extensions to service customers in Lee and
Collier Counties. 	Therefore, we find that the proposed Agreement, dated May 20, 2026, is
approved because it is cost-effective, reasonable, meets the requirements of Section 368.105,
F.S., and benefits Peoples’ customers.
Based on the foregoing, is
ORDERED by the Florida Public Service Commission that the Petition for Approval of
Firm Service Agreement with Peoples Gas System, Inc. by SeaCoast Gas Transmission, LLC
filed on June 5, 2026, is hereby granted. It is further
ORDERED that the Firm Service Agreement, dated May 20, 2026, contained in
Attachment A to this order, is hereby approved. It is further
ORDERED that the service map contained in Attachment B to this order is hereby
approved. It is further
ORDERED that the provisions of this Order, issued as proposed agency action, shall
become final and effective upon the issuance of a Consummating Order unless an appropriate
petition, in the form provided by Rule 28-106.201, Florida Administrative Code, is received by
the Commission Clerk, 2540 Shumard Oak Boulevard, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0850, by the
close of business on the date set forth in the “Notice of Further Proceedings” attached hereto. It
is further
ORDERED that if no protest is filed by a person whose substantial interests are affected
within 21 days of the issuance of the Order, this docket should be closed upon the issuance of a
Consummating Order.
12 The swing service charge mechanism is designed to recover the estimated costs incurred by the Company to
provide swing service (i.e., manage the level of gas and interstate pipeline capacity nominated for delivery to
Peoples' system) to transportation customers. The revenue derived from the charge is credited to the Purchased Gas
Adjustment clause.

modification shall be sought. A change in (a) the place to which notices pursuant to this

or authority.
16. SEVERABILITY
If any provision of this Agreement becomes or 	is declared by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force

20. ASSIGNMENT AND TRANSFER
No assignment of this Agreement by either party may be made without the prior written
approval of the other party (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and unless
the assigning or transferring party's assignee or transferee shall expressly assume, in
writing, the duties and obligations under this Agreement of the assigning or transferring

21. GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORIZATIONS; COMPLIANCE WITH LAW
This Agreement shall be subject to all valid applicable state, local and federal laws, orders,

execute any documents required by any duly constituted federal or state regulatory
authority in connection with the performance of this Agreement. Each party shall proceed

authorizations necessary to carry out its obligations under this Agreement. In the event
this Agreement or any provisions herein shall be found contrary to or in conflict with any
applicable law, order, directive, rule or regulation, the latter shall be deemed to control,
but nothing in this Agreement shall prevent either party from contesting the validity of any
such law, order, directive, rule, or regulation, nor shall anything 	in this Agreement be
construed to require either party to waive 	its respective rights to assert the lack of
jurisdiction of any governmental agency other than the Commission, over this Agreement
or any part thereof. In the event of such contestation, and unless otherwise prohibited from
doing so under this Section 21, Company shall continue to transport and Shipper shall
continue to take Gas pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. In the event any law, order,
directive, rule, or regulation shall prevent either party from performing hereunder, then
neither party shall have any obligation to the other during the period that performance
under the Agreement is precluded.
22. APPLICABLE LAW AND VENUE
This Agreement and any dispute arising hereunder shall be governed by and interpreted
in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida. The venue for any action, at law or in
equity, commenced by either party against the other and arising out of or in connection
with this Agreement shall be in a court of the State of Florida having jurisdiction.
