CERTIFIED MAIL - RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED
June 30, 2010
Mr. Michael J. McGonagill
Chief Operation Officer
Alliance Pipeline L.P.
6385 Old Shady Oak Road, Ste. 150
Eden Prairie, Minnesota 55344
Re: CPF 3-2006-1020M
Dear Mr. McGonagill:
On August 8-12 and August 22-26, 2005, representatives from the Pipeline and Hazardous
Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), the Iowa Utilities Board, and the Minnesota
Office of Pipeline Safety, pursuant to chapter 601 of 49 United States Code, conducted an on-
site pipeline safety inspection of the Alliance Pipeline L.P. (Alliance) integrity management
procedures in Eden Prairie, Minnesota. As a result of the inspection, Alliance was issued a
Notice of Amendment on September 26, 2006, which proposed amendment of your
procedures.
Alliance submitted its proposed revisions on November 21, 2006 and its amended procedures
on November 12, 2007. My staff reviewed the amended procedures, and it appears that the
inadequacies outlined in this Notice of Amendment have been corrected.
This letter is to inform you no further action is necessary and this case is now closed. Thank
you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
David Barrett
Director, Central Region
Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration
