    Take notice that on May 15, 2008, Natural Gas Pipeline Company of 
America LLC (Natural), 3250 Lacey Road, Suite 700, Downers Grove, 
Illinois 60515, filed in Docket No. CP08-402-000, a prior notice 
request pursuant to sections 157.205, 157.208, 157.211, and 157.212 of 
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's regulations under the 
Natural Gas Act for authorization to construct and operate facilities 
to connect Natural's pipeline system to Kinder Morgan Louisiana 
Pipeline LLC (KMLP) in Cameron Parish, Louisiana in order to receive 
re-vaporized liquefied natural gas (LNG) or to deliver natural gas, 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

    Natural proposes to construct and operate facilities necessary to 
establish a bi-directional interconnect with KMLP at a new interconnect 
point in Cameron Parish, Louisiana. The facilities include two 30-inch 
taps, and appurtenances, on Natural's existing Louisiana No. 1 and No. 
2 pipelines located south of Highway 82 in Cameron Parish, Louisiana. 
The facilities will interconnect with Natural's system to Leg 2 of KMLP 
(a one mile 36-inch pipe) and will support Natural's lease of capacity 
to KMLP previously approved in Docket No. CP06-448-000. This 
interconnect will allow Natural to receive re-vaporized LNG from KMLP 
or to deliver natural gas to KMLP. KMLP will install and own bi-
directional ultrasonic meters, a gas filter, electronic flow 
measurement equipment, and monitoring devices. The estimated cost of 
the project is approximately $1.03 million and all costs associated 
with the project will be reimbursed by KMLP. The proposed in-service 
date for the interconnect facilities is September 1, 2008.
    Any questions regarding the application should be directed to 
Norman Watson, Director, Business Development, Natural Gas Pipeline 
Company of America LLC, 500 Dallas Street, Suite 1000, Houston, Texas

Pipeline Company of America LLC, 3250 Lacey Road, Suite 700, Downers

    Any person may, within 60 days after the issuance of the instant 
notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule 214 of the Commission's

proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the day 
after the time allowed for protest. If a protest is filed and not 
withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a protest,

CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web
