Notice of Receipt of Application for a
Presidential Permit To Operate and
Maintain Pipeline Facilities on the
Border of the United States
Notice is hereby given that the
Department of State has received an
application from Dome Petroleum Corp.,
a North Dakota corporation (‘‘Dome
Petroleum’’), with its principal address
at 4101 Winfield Road, Warrenville,
Illinois 60555, and Kinder Morgan
Cochin, LLC, (‘‘Kinder Morgan’’), a
Delaware limited liability company with
its principal office at 500 Dallas Street
Suite 1000, Houston, TX 77002, for
Presidential permits, pursuant to
Executive Order 13337 of April 30,
2004, to operate and maintain two crossborder pipelines they recently acquired
from Dome Pipeline Corporation
(‘‘Dome Pipeline’’) to transport
petroleum, petroleum products, and
other liquid hydrocarbons between the
United States and Canada, crossing the
international boundary line underneath
the Detroit River between Detroit,
Michigan and Windsor, Canada.
A Permit for these pipelines was
originally issued to American Brine, Inc.
on October 23, 1957. The permit granted
American Brine the authority to
construct, connect, operate, and
maintain two pipelines (collectively, the
‘‘Pipelines’’) to carry liquid brine
between the United States and Canada,
crossing underneath the Detroit River
between Detroit, Michigan and Windsor,
Canada. This permit was superseded by
a new permit issued to American Brine
on March 13, 1969. Following the sale
of these pipelines to Dome Pipeline in
1972, this superseding permit was
amended to reflect Dome Pipeline as the
new owner, and to permit the pipelines
to transport petroleum, petroleum
products and other liquid hydrocarbons.
On March 15, 2007 Dome Petroleum
sold Dome Pipeline, its former
subsidiary, to Kinder Morgan Energy
Partners LP, a master limited
partnership with its principal office in
Houston, Texas. Following the sale,
Dome Pipeline was merged into Kinder
Morgan Cochin (‘‘Kinder Morgan’’), a
Delaware limited liability company and
subsidiary of Kinder Morgan Energy
Partners with its principal office in
Houston, Texas.
Under the terms of the all-stock sale,
ownership of the Pipelines was to be
transferred to Dome Petroleum and
Kinder Morgan. Dome Petroleum shall
be the sole owner of the pipeline
common referred to as the Eastern
Delivery System South Pipeline System
