FINAL ORDER
On December 12, 2024, pursuant to 49 C.F.R. § 190.207, the Director, Central Region, Office of
Pipeline Safety (OPS), issued a Notice of Probable Violation (Notice) to Aux Sable Liquid
Products (Respondent). Respondent is a joint venture company, and its assets are operated by
Pembina Pipeline Corporation. The Notice proposed finding that Respondent had violated the
pipeline safety regulations in 49 C.F.R. Part 195. The Notice also proposed certain measures to
correct the violation. Respondent did not contest the allegation of violation or corrective
measures.
Based upon a review of all of the evidence, pursuant to § 190.213, I find Respondent violated the
pipeline safety regulation listed below, as more fully described in the enclosed Notice, which is
incorporated by reference:
49 C.F.R. § 195.452(j)(2) (Item 1) ─ Respondent failed to complete continual
evaluation of its liquid pipeline system, including its pipeline facilities, affecting
high consequence areas in order to verify risk factors on at least an annual basis not
to exceed 15 months.
This finding of violation will be considered a prior offense in any subsequent enforcement
action taken against Respondent.
Compliance Actions
Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 60118(b) and 49 C.F.R. § 190.217, Respondent is ordered to take the
actions proposed in the enclosed Notice to correct the violation. The Director may grant an
extension of time to comply with any of the required items upon a written request timely
submitted by the Respondent and demonstrating good cause for an extension. Upon completion
of the ordered actions, Respondent may request that the Director close the case. Failure to
comply with this Order may result in the assessment of civil penalties under 49 C.F.R. § 190.223



or in referral to the Attorney General for appropriate relief in a district court of the United States.
The terms and conditions of this order are effective upon service in accordance with 49 C.F.R.
§ 190.5.
