As a result of the inspection, PEI was issued a Notice of Amendment on July 17, 2012. We received your follow-up letter dated September 17, 2012 along with attachments in response to the Notice of Amendment. As you are aware, Pennsylvania Legislature recently passed a law that expanded the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission authority to inspect and enforce intrastate transmission pipelines such as this pipeline. The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission has now assumed the responsibility for inspection and enforcement of your pipeline system. Accordingly, no further action is necessary in connection with this case. This case is now closed. Sincerely, Byron Coy, PE Director, Eastern Region Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration cc: Paul Metro, Program Manager/ Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission#
