CERTIFIED MAIL - RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED
November 15 , 2010
Mr. Randy Ziebarth
President
Torch Energy Services, Inc.
1331 Lamar. Suite 1450
Houston, TX 77010
CPF 4-2010-1004M
Dear Mr. Ziebarth:
On December 17 through December 30, 2009, a representative of the Pipeline and Hazardous
Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) inspected Torch Energy Services (TES), Inc.’s Mardi
Gras pipeline system in Bogalusa, LA., pursuant to Chapter 601 of 49 United States Code. As a
result of the inspection, TES was issued a Notice of Amendment on July 9, 2010. This Notice
proposed amendment of your procedures to assure safe operation of your pipeline facility.
TES submitted its amended procedures on November 4, 2010. My staff reviewed the amended
procedures, and it appears that the inadequacies outlined in this Notice of Amendment have been
corrected.
This letter is to inform you no further action is necessary and this case is now closed. Thank you
for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
R. M. Seeley
Director, Southwest Region
Pipeline and Hazardous
Materials Safety Administration
