                    CP08-466-000, a prior notice request pursuant to sections 157.205, 157.208, and 157.216 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's regulations under the Natural Gas Act for authorization to decrease the Maximum Allowable Operating Pressures (MAOP) of the Lakes Meter Station Line (Line No. 20108) and the Chandler Line (Line No. 2029) and to thereafter operate the lines at the lower MAOP, and abandon capacity on Line No. 2029, located in Maricopa County, Arizona, all as more fully set forth in the application, which is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection. The filing may also be viewed on the Web at                     *http://www.ferc.gov*                     using the “eLibrary” link.

Specifically, EPNG proposes to decrease the existing MAOP of Line No. 20108 from 715 psig to 266 psig and Line No. 2029 from 650 psig to 430 psig. EPNG also proposes to decrease the existing design capacity on Line No. 2029 from 34 MMcf/d to 27 MMcf/d.
