FINAL ORDER
On June 15, 2022, pursuant to 49 C.F.R. § 190.207, the Director, Western Region, Office of
Pipeline Safety (OPS), issued a Notice of Probable Violation (Notice) to SCM PR, LLC, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Silver Creek Midstream Holdings, LLC (Respondent). The Notice
proposed finding that Respondent had violated the pipeline safety regulations in 49 C.F.R. Part
195. The Notice also proposed certain measures to correct the violations. Respondent did not
contest the allegations of violation or corrective measures.
Based upon a review of all of the evidence, pursuant to § 190.213, I find Respondent violated the
pipeline safety regulation listed below, as more fully described in the enclosed Notice, which is
incorporated by reference:
49 C.F.R. § 195.446(e)(5) & (6) (Item 2) ─ Respondent failed to implement a
written alarm management plan that included provisions to monitor the content
and volume of the general activity of the controller to assure controllers have
sufficient time to analyze and react to incoming alarms.
This finding of violation will be considered a prior offense in any subsequent enforcement action
taken against Respondent.
Compliance Actions
The Director has indicated that Respondent completed the actions proposed in the Notice to
correct the violation. Therefore, it is not necessary to include the proposed compliance terms in
this Final Order.



Warning Items
With respect to Items 1 and 3, the Notice alleged probable violations of 49 C.F.R. §§
195.446(e)(4) and 195.446(f)(1), respectively, but did not propose a civil penalty or compliance
order for these items. Therefore, these are considered to be warning items. If OPS finds a
violation of these provisions in a subsequent inspection, Respondent may be subject to future
enforcement action.
The terms and conditions of this order are effective upon service in accordance with 49 C.F.R.
§ 190.5.
