As a result of the inspection, the Southwest Regional Director, OPS, issued to Respondent, by letter dated May 13, 2002, a Notice of Amendment (NOA). The NOA alleged inadequacies in Respondent's integrity management program and proposed to require amendment of Respondent's procedures to comply with the requirements of 49 C.F.R. § 195.452(b)(2). Respondent responded to the NOA by letter dated June 10, 2002. Respondent did not contest the NOA and did not request a hearing, consequently Respondent waived its right to one. However, Respondent submitted amended integrity management program procedures to address the inadequacies cited in the NOA. The Southwest Region reviewed the revised procedures. Accordingly, based on the results of this review, I find that Respondent's original integrity management program procedures as described in the NOA were inadequate to ensure safe operation of its pipeline system, but that Respondent has corrected the identified inadequacies. Respondent need not take any further action with respect to the matters in this case. The terms and conditions of this Order Directing Amendment are effective upon receipt.
