Inergy, L.P. (NASDAQ: NRGY) announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Inergy Midstream, LLC (“Inergy”), is conducting two non-binding Open Seasons. The first Open Season is for the “MARC I Hub Line Project,” and the second is for the “North-South Project.” Together, these projects would allow shippers to wheel gas bi-directionally on a firm basis to and from the Millennium Pipeline in Tioga County, New York, approximately 75 miles to and from Transcontinental Gas Pipeline Corporation’s (“Transco”) Leidy Line near its compressor station 517, and to and from all points in between.

MARC I Hub Line Project

The MARC I Hub Line Project seeks to gauge interest for Northeast shippers that desire to move gas bi-directionally between the South Lateral of Inergy’s Stagecoach Gas Storage Facility (“Stagecoach”), Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company’s (“TGP”) 300 Line near its compressor station 319, and Transco’s Leidy Line near its compressor station 517.

The Marc I Hub Line Project includes approximately 43 miles of lateral piping, compression, and interconnect facilities connecting Inergy’s Stagecoach South Lateral to Transco. The Marc I Hub Line Project, when placed in-service, will allow Inergy to wheel volumes to and from Stagecoach’s South Lateral, TGP, Transco, and the Millennium Pipeline.

North-South Project

The North-South Project seeks to gauge interest for shippers that desire to wheel gas on a firm basis through Inergy’s existing North and/or South Laterals of Stagecoach to and from TGP’s 300 Line, Inergy’s proposed MARC I Hub Line, and the Millennium Pipeline.

The North-South Project includes setting additional compression and expanded measurement facilities at Inergy’s existing Millennium and TGP interconnects.

The proposed projects are targeting Northeast shippers seeking: (i) additional market supply flexibility and reliability; (ii) access to additional gas supplies in the market area; (iii) liquid points of sale for locally produced gas from the Marcellus Shale and Trenton-Black River plays, among others; (iv) additional storage opportunities; and (v) capture of pricing differentials between the various interconnected market pipelines.

Rates, including fuel retention, for both projects will be determined after the conclusion of this non-binding Open Season and are dependent upon the final scope of the facilities and firm service commitments. Indicative rates are provided for both projects in each of the non-binding Open Season Packages.

Non-binding Open Seasons for both projects will close August 21, 2009, at 5:00 p.m. CT.

The anticipated in-service date for both projects is September 1, 2011.

This news release contains forward-looking statements, which are statements that are not historical in nature such as the expectation that Marc I Hub Line project will add additional transportation capacity in the northeast, the proposed hub line will interconnect with Tennessee Gas Pipeline and Transcontinental Gas Pipeline Corporation’s (Transco) Leidy Line, and the expectation that commercial operations will commence in 2011. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or any underlying assumption proves incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, or projected. Among the key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those referred to in the forward-looking statements are: weather conditions that vary significantly from historically normal conditions; the demand for high deliverability natural gas storage capacity in the Northeast; the general level of petroleum product demand and the availability of natural gas and the price of natural gas to the consumer compared to the price of alternative and competing fuels; our ability to successfully implement our business plan with respect to our continued expansion of our midstream operations; our ability to generate available cash for distribution to unitholders; the outcome of rate decisions levied by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission; and the costs and effects of legal, regulatory, and administrative proceedings against us or which may be brought against us.
