NOTICE OF PROPOSED AGENCY ACTION
ORDER APPROVING AMENDMENT TO
TRANSPORTATION SERVICE AGREEMENT
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 	October 	29, 	2025, 	Peninsula 	Pipeline Company, 	Inc. 	(Peninsula), 	filed 	a 	petition
seeking 	approval 	of a 	second amendment 	to 	firm 	transportation 	service 	agreement between
Peninsula and Florida Public 	Utilities Company (FPUC), 	collectively the 	Parties. The proposed
second amendment to the agreement 	is included as Attachment A to this order.
Peninsula 	and FPUC 	are 	both 	wholly 	owned 	subsidiaries 	of 	Chesapeake 	Utilities
Corporation (Chesapeake). Peninsula operates as an 	intrastate natural gas transmission company
as defined by Section 368.103(4), Florida Statutes 	(F.S.). 1FPUC operates as a local distribution
company subject to our regulatory jurisdiction pursuant to Chapter 366, F.S.
1Order No. PSC-06-0023-DS-GP, issued January 9, 2006, in Docket No. 050584-GP, In re: Petition for declaratory
statement by Peninsula Pipeline Company, 	Inc. concerning recognition as a natural gas 	transmission company
under Section 368.101, F.S., etseq.

ORDER NO. PSC-2026-0021-PAA-GU
DOCKET NO. 20250132-GU

By Order No. PSC-07-1012-TRF-GP, Peninsula 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.2 The Parties are subsidiaries of Chesapeake, and
agreements between affiliated companies must be approved by us pursuant to Section 368.105,
F.S.
By Order No. PSC-2017-0498-PAA-GU, we approved the initial transportation service
agreement between Peninsula and FPUC (2017 Order).3 Pursuant to the 2017 Order, Peninsula
would construct and own a new pipeline in New Smyrna Beach and relocate an existing gate
station. The purpose of this construction project was to eliminate pressure issues FPUC was
facing at the time as well as to provide the opportunity for growth in the New Smyrna Beach
area.4
By Order No. PSC-2024-0072-PAA-GU, we approved Peninsula’s amended agreement
to include an additional source of gas, an additional interconnect, and four new delivery points.5
Peninsula stated the addition to the project was needed to ensure sufficient additional gas supply
and provide operational support to FPUC’s system. 6 In response to our staff’s data request,
Peninsula stated that the construction of this project is anticipated to be complete in 2026.7 This
petition for a second amendment arises out of the need for an additional delivery point.
During the evaluation of the petition, our staff issued one data request to the Parties for
which responses were received on December 2, 2025.8 We have jurisdiction over this matter
pursuant to Sections 368.104, and 368.105, F.S.
Decision
The purpose of this amendment is to revise certain provisions of the currently approved
firm transportation service agreement to reflect the construction of an additional point of
delivery. In response to our staff’s data request, Peninsula stated that the additional delivery
point is necessary to enhance reliability and to meet FPUC’s supply capacity design-day demand
due to additional growth in the New Smyrna Beach area.9 Currently, FPUC is using compressed
natural gas to supplement supply in the area during high demand months to ensure adequate
supply. The additional delivery point would be located at or near the intersection of Pioneer Trail

and Junonia Boulevard in Volusia County. In response to our staff’s data request, Peninsula
stated that the expected completion date of the new delivery point would be March 31, 2026.
In response to our staff’s data request, Peninsula stated that there would be no change in
the monthly reservation charge.10 The monthly reservation charge has been previously approved
in Order No. PSC-2024-0072-PAA-GU. The reservation charge to FPUC allows Peninsula to
recover the pipeline construction costs. Furthermore, Peninsula explained that it would be able to
construct the additional delivery point within the existing anticipated capital cost for the original
project.
Conclusion
Based on the petition and the Parties’ responses to our staff’s data request, we approve
the proposed second amendment to the firm transportation service agreement dated October 27,
2025, between Peninsula and FPUC. The proposed second amendment to the firm transportation
service agreement is reasonable and meets the requirements of Section 368.105, F.S.
Based on the foregoing, it is
ORDERED 	by 	the 	Florida 	Public 	Service 	Commission 	that 	the 	proposed 	second
amendment to the firm transportation service agreement dated October 27, 2025, between
Peninsula Pipeline Company, Inc. and Florida Public Utilities Company, attached hereto, is
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 in the event this Order becomes final, this docket shall be closed.
