EXPLANATORY NOTE



The sole purpose of this amendment is to file revised Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2, which are certifications of Kinder Morgan, Inc.s (the Company) Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer pursuant to Rule 13a-14(a) or 15d-14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). The only change in those exhibits is to include in paragraph 4 language regarding the Companys internal control over financial reporting that was inadvertently omitted from the exhibits as originally filed with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K on March 4, 2005.



Rule 12b-15 under the Exchange Act provides that any amendment to a report required to be accompanied by the certifications specified in Rule 13(a)-14(b) or 15d-14(b) must be accompanied by new certifications of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer. These certifications, which are unchanged from the certifications as originally filed with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K on March 4, 2005, are therefore also included as Exhibits 32.1 and 32.2.
