History
Historically, EPNG's primary market was California, though the growth of competing pipelines into that market and lack of increased demand since 2001 has led to a decrease in its business there, especially in Southern California. At the same time, EPNG's shipping into Arizona has increased, largely because it was the only pipeline into the fast-growing Phoenix area until the TransWestern Phoenix Lateral came in service Q1 2009.
Its largest customers are Southern California Gas Company (a Sempra Energy subsidiary); Southwest Gas Corporation; and Pacific Gas and Electric Company. Its FERC code is 33.[1]
