March 29, 2007.
Take notice that on March 27, 2007,
El Paso Natural Gas Company (EPNG),
Post Office Box 1087, Colorado Springs,
Colorado 80944, filed in Docket No.
CP07–116–000, a prior notice request
pursuant to §§ 157.205 and 157.208 of
the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission’s regulations under the
Natural Gas Act for authorization to
increase the maximum allowable
operating pressure (MAOP) of the
Slaughter Plant Line (Line No. 3000),
originating in Cochran County, Texas
and terminating in Hockley County,
Texas, 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 https://
www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link.

FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or call
toll-free, (886) 208–3676 or TYY, (202)
502–8659.
Specifically, EPNG proposes to
increase the MAOP on Line No. 3000,
consisting of approximately 2.74 miles
of 123⁄4 inch diameter pipeline, from a
current MAOP of 744 psig to 780 psig
and to thereafter operate Line No. 3000
at pressures up to and including the
higher MAOP. EPNG states that the
increase of the MAOP will allow EPNG
certain operational flexibility and will
have a de minimus effect on the current
capacity of Line No. 3000. EPNG asserts
that the cost of increasing the MAOP
will be zero because existing test data
for Line No. 3000 derived from a past
pressure test and other historical
information met the requirements to
increase the MAOP to 780 psig.
Any questions regarding the
application should be directed to
Richard Derryberry, Director, Regulatory
Affairs Department, El Paso Natural Gas
Company, Post Office Box 1087,
Colorado Springs, Colorado 80944, or
call at (719) 520–3782.
Any person or the Commission’s Staff
may, within 60 days after the issuance
of the instant notice by the Commission,
file pursuant to Rule 214 of the
Commission’s Procedural Rules (18 CFR

In accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and
the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (Commission or FERC)
regulations contained in the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) (18 CFR Part
380) [FERC Order No. 486, 52 FR
47897], the Office of Energy Project’s
staff (staff) reviewed a proposal to
surrender the license for the Old
Columbia Dam Project, and prepared an
environmental assessment (EA) for this
proposed surrender. In this EA, staff
evaluates potential effects of the
proposed surrender and finds that there
would be no effects to aquatic or
terrestrial resources, threatened or
endangered species, recreation
resources, or land use. The Commission
also determined that the proposed
surrender may adversely affect
properties listed in the National Register
due to the loss of Federal jurisdiction,
and executed a Memorandum of
