El Paso Corporation’s vision to be the place to work, the neighbor to have, and the company to own provides the framework for this report. In it, we describe the economic, social, and environmental impact of our business using the most current information available for calendar year 2007. The report was prepared with reference to the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) G3 guidelines.

Scope

Our reporting covers assets operated directly by El Paso Corporation. When it is helpful to give more detail, information may be discussed by business unit (Pipeline, Exploration & Production, or Corporate). For social measures, our impact is reported for El Paso as a whole.

This report has not been evaluated by a third party for external assurance; however several mechanisms were put in place to validate the information and support transparency. An employee advisory committee, made up of staff from across the organization, was assembled to provide input and review this report. The Health, Safety & Environmental committee of the company’s Board of Directors also provided oversight.

Data regarding the company’s financial performance and some of the environmental data have been verified by an external third party as noted.
