Spurgeon\nRegulatory Affairs Agent\nPhillips Alaska Natural Gas Company\nP.O. Box 1967\nHouston, TX 77251-1967\nDear Mr. Spurgeon:\nThis is in response to your letter of April 10, 1996, concerning the proposed addition of a liquefied\nnatural gas (LNG) storage tank to be constructed at the Phillips/Marathon Oil Company Kenai LNG\nPlant. You asked whether the siting of an additional LNG storage tank within the existing facility would\nviolate Subpart B of 49 CFR Part 193.\nRules governing the applicability of the siting, design, installation, and construction standards are set\nforth in §193.2005. Under that section, the addition of a new LNG storage tank to an existing LNG plant\nwould not subject the existing LNG facilities at the plant to the siting, design, installation, or construction\nstandards of Part 193.\nThe additional LNG storage tank would, however, be subject to the applicable siting, design, installation,\nand construction requirements of Part 193 (i.e., Subpart B-D).\nIf we can be of further assistance in this matter, please contact me or Mr. Mike Israni of my staff at\n(202) 366-4046.\nSincerely,\nCesar DeLeon\nDeputy Associate Administrator\nfor Pipeline Safety\n96-05-10 (Part 193).doc (sw/05/20/99) 193.2005","truncated":false,"body_characters":1348}
