El Paso Natural Gas Company; Notice of Application

    On April 26, 2011, El Paso Natural Gas Company (El Paso), P.O. Box 
1087, Colorado Springs, CO 80944, filed with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission (Commission) an application under section 7(b) of 
the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157.5 of the Commission's 
regulations, requesting authorization to abandon in place a compressor 
unit, with appurtenances, at El Paso's Monument Compressor Station 
located in Lea County, New Mexico. Specifically, El Paso is seeking to 
abandon Unit 2B since it has become functionally obsolete and is no 
longer needed to provide natural gas transportation service. The filing 
is available for review at the Commission in the Public Reference Room 
or may be viewed on the Commission's Web site 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, contact FERC at FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or call toll-
free, (866) 208-3676 or TTY, (202) 502-8659.
    Questions regarding the application may be directed to Susan C.

    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 seven 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.
    The Commission encourages electronic submission of protests and 
interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should submit an 
original and seven copies of the protest or intervention to the Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 
20426. There is an ``eSubscription'' link on the Web site that enables 
subscribers to receive e-mail notification when a document is added to 
a subscribed docket(s).
    Comment Date: 5 p.m. Eastern Time on May 27, 2011.

    Dated: May 6, 2011.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
