ROSEWOOD HOMES, INC. P.O. Box 672 Leesville, LA 71446 Dear Ms. Edwards: A copy of your letter of January 2, 1974, to Mr. Rudy Langford, Director, Federal Housing Administration, was directed to this Office. You raised a question about cathodic protection requirements for aboveground piping. Though there are no cathodic protection requirements for aboveground piping, the operator must comply with appropriate portions of Sections 192.479 and 192.481 of Subpart I of the Federal standards to protect against atmospheric corrosion. In connection with underground copper piping, the operator must comply with Sections 192.455 and 192.457 a well as other pertinent sections. However, if in accordance with Section 192.455(c) the operator can demonstrate by tests, investigation, or experience that bare copper pipeline does not require corrosion control measures, then it is not required to provide them. It is noted in your letter that the copper piping is under concrete foundations. Your attention is called to the requirement of Section 192.361(f) for the protection of service lines under buildings. Thank you for you continued interest in pipeline safety. Sincerely, \signed\ Joseph C. Caldwell Director Office of Pipeline Safety dal\192\361\74-01-24 1 <<>> January 2, 1974 Mr. Rudy Langford, Director Shreveport I.O.
