DC 20590\nIn the Matter of\nJayhawk Pipeline, L.L.C.,\nRespondent.\nCPF No. 3-2002-5009M\nORDER DIRECTING AMENDMENT\nOn January 23-24,20}2,pursuant to 49 U.S.C. $ 60117, representatives of the Central and Eastern\nRegions, Office of Pipeline Safety (OPS), inspected Jayhawk Pipeline L.L.C.'s (Respondent's)\nintegnty management progr.rm at Respondent's facility in McPherson, Kansas. As a result,of the\ninspection, the Central,Regiondl Director, OPS, issued to Respondent, by,letter:datedMay.22,2002,\na Notice of Amendment,(NOA). The,NOA alleged inadequacies:rn ResPsndentfs: integrity\nmanagement program and proposed to require amendment of Respondent's.pr,ogedures to comply\nwith the requirements of a9 C,F,R. $ 195:452(b). .\n. .' i: :\nRespondent responded to the NOA by letter dated June 11,2002. Respondent did not contest the\nNOA and did not request a hearing, consequently Respondent waived its right to one. However,\nRespondent submitted amended integrity management program procedures to address the\ninadequacies cited in the NOA. The Central Region reviewed the amended procedures. In its\nResponse letter, Respondent explained in detail the process it now uses to identifi pipeline segments\nthat could affect high consequence areas. How€ver, the revised procedures Respondent submitted\nare swnmary in nature and do not adequately delineate this detailed process. Respondent's\nprocedures need to fully incorporate the detailed models described in the Response letter.\nAccordingly, I find that Respondent's integrity management program procedures are inadequate to\nensnre safe operation of its pipeline system. Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. $ 60108(a) and 49 C.F.R.\n5190.237, Respondent is ordered to make the following changes to its integrity management\nprogram procedures:\nl. Amend its procedures to provide adequate technical justification for determining the\nextent of the buffer zone used to identiff pipeline segments that could affect high\nconsequence areas by including a systematic, technically sound land flow analysis\nincorporating factors, such as topological gradients, that could stretch the spill pool\nfootprint beyond that associated with uniform distribution.\n\n\n\n2\n2. Amend its procedures to provide adequate technical justification for determining the\nextent of the buffer zone used to identiff pipeline segments that could affect high\nconsequence areas to account for longer range paths, such as minor steams and\nwaterways, that can transport releases of commodity to a high consequence area.\n3 . . Submit the amended procedures within 30 days following receipt ofthis Order Directing\nAmendment. Submit all procedures and technical justifications demonstrating\ncompliance with this Order to the Director, Central Region, Office of Pipeline Safety,\n901 Locust Street, Suite 462, Kansas City, MO 64106-2641.\nThe Director, Central Region, OPS, may grant an extension of time to comply with any of the\nrequired items upon a request by the Respondent demonstrating good cause for an extension.\nFailure to comply with this Order Directing Amendment may result in the assessment of civil\npenalties of up to $25,000 per violation per day, or in the referral of the case for judicial\nenforcement. The ter,ms and conditions of this Order are effective upon receipt.\nl ' r l . - r - r ' \\ t\nUtL J I JIiU,I\nDate Issued\nln\nAssociate Administrator\nfor Pipeline Safety","truncated":false,"body_characters":4983}
