CPF 2-2011-1011H
Dear Mr. Hjalmarson:
On December 13, 2012, you wrote to the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety
Administration (PHMSA) Southern Region, Office of Pipeline Safety requesting closure of
the Corrective Action Order (CAO) (CPF 2-2011-1011H) PHMSA issued to Williams Gas
Pipeline-Transco (Williams-Transco) on December 6, 2011. The CAO was issued after a
December 3, 2011, failure on the Williams-Transco Main Line C near Sweet Water, AL.
This letter is to inform you that the Southern Region has reviewed all the actions taken by
Williams-Transco with respect to the CAO and we find that Williams-Transco has complied
with the terms of the CAO. No further actions are necessary with regards to the CAO. This
case is now closed. Accordingly, all pressure restrictions established by the CAO are
withdrawn.
Please be advised that this letter refers only to the CAO (CPF 2-2011-1011H) and not to any
other PHMSA pending cases. Also be advised that nothing herein states or implies that the
above described pipeline meets the requirements of the federal pipeline safety regulations.
The pipeline system remains subject to inspection by PHMSA.
Sincerely,
Wayne T. Lemoi
Director, Office of Pipeline Safety
PHMSA Southern Region
