CERTIFIED MAIL - RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED
March 7, 2013
Mr. Troy Valenzuela
Vice President, Environmental Health & Safety
Plains Pipeline, L.P.
333 Clay Street, Suite 1600
Houston, Texas 77002
CPF 4-2012-5035M
Dear Mr. Valenzuela:
In April 2012, a representative from the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration
(PHMSA), pursuant to chapter 601 of 49 United States Code, inspected Plains Pipeline L.P.’s
procedures for Telephonic Notification for Reportable Accidents following an accident that
occurred on November 13, 2011, in Hermleigh, Texas. As a result of the inspection, Plains was
issued a Notice of Amendment on November 6, 2012, which proposed amendment of your
procedures.
Plains submitted its amended procedures on February 4, 2013. 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
