Kinder Morgan Interstate Gas Transmission LLC; Notice of 
Application

December 19, 2006.
    Take notice that on December 13, 2006, Kinder Morgan Interstate Gas 
Transmission LLC (KMIGT), 370 Van Gordon Street, Lakewood, Colorado 
80228-8304, filed in Docket No. CP07-33-000 an application pursuant to 
section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for permission and approval 
to abandon, by removal, the Otis Compressor Station located in Rush 
County, Kansas, all as more fully set forth in the application.
    Copies of this filing are on file with the Commission and are 
available for public inspection. This filing may also be viewed on the 
web at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the 

docket number excluding the last three digits in the docket number 
field to access the document. For assistance, please contact FERC 
Online Support at FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or toll-free at (866) 208-
3676, or for TTY, contact (202) 502-8659.
    Any questions concerning this request may be directed to Skip 
George, Manager of Regulatory, Kinder Morgan Interstate Gas 
Transmission LLC, P.O. Box 281304, Lakewood, Colorado 80228-8304, or 
call (303) 914-4969.
    Specifically, KMIGT proposes to abandon One 660 hp Worthington 
SLHC-7 compressor unit and one 300 hp Worthington LCE-8 compressor 
unit, with appurtenances.
    KMIGT states that the Otis Compressor Station has not been utilized 
since 1994 and it is uneconomical for KMIGT to continue to operate this 
Compressor Station. KMIGT states further that the abandonment would 
have no material impact on KMIGT's cost of service nor would it result 
in or cause any interruption, reduction, or termination of the 
transportation service presently rendered by KMIGT.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of 
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by 
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or 
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a 
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person 
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by 
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all 
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must 
submit 14 copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a 
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only 
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders 
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have 
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with 
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and 
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. 
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the 
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will 
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's 
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project 
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly 
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of 
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments 
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commenters will be 
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive 
copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings 
associated with the Commission's environmental review process. 
Environmental commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed 
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commenters will 
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by 
the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents 
issued by the Commission) and will not have the right

[[Page 78175]]

to seek court review of the Commission's final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages filings of comments, protests 
and interventions electronically via the Internet in lieu of paper. 
See, 18 CFR385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's 
web site under the ``e-filing'' link.
    If the Commission decides to set the application for a formal 
hearing before an Administrative Law Judge, the Commission will issue 
another notice describing that process. At the end of the Commission's 
review process, a final Commission order approving or denying a 
certificate will be issued.
    Comment Date: January 8, 2007.

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
