Item 8.01 Other Events.
     On December 13, 2006, Williams Partners L.P. (the “Partnership”) acquired the remaining 74.9% member interest in Williams Four Corners LLC (“Four Corners”) that it did not own pursuant to an agreement with Williams Energy Services, LLC, Williams Field Services Group, LLC, Williams Field Services Company, LLC, Williams Partners Operating LLC and Williams Partners GP LLC, the Partnership’s general partner (the “General Partner”), for aggregate consideration of $1.223 billion.
     Because Four Corners was an affiliate of The Williams Companies, Inc. (“Williams”) at the time of the acquisition, the transaction was between entities under common control, and has been accounted for at historical cost. Accordingly, the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements and notes have been restated to reflect the consolidation of the historical results of Four Corners throughout the periods presented. The Partnership’s supplemental consolidated financial statements and notes are filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and are incorporated herein by reference.
     This current report on Form 8-K and the exhibits hereto (with the exception of the supplemental unaudited balance sheet of the General Partner as of September 30, 2006) are being filed as supplements to the Partnership’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, and the Partnership’s previously restated financial statements filed as Exhibits 99.1 an 99.2 to the Partnership’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 22, 2006. Except as required, the information in this current report on Form 8-K and the exhibits hereto has not been updated and is not intended to provide supplemental financial or other information with respect to any period subsequent to September 30, 2006. To update such information, please read the Partnership’s current reports on Form 8-K filed subsequent to September 30, 2006.
     The supplemental consolidated audited balance sheet of the General Partner as of December 31, 2005 and the supplemental unaudited balance sheet of the General Partner as of September 30, 2006 are filed as Exhibit 99.2 hereto and are incorporated herein by reference.
