Before acting on these special permit requests, PHMSA will evaluate all comments received on or before the closing date.

PHMSA will consider each relevant comment we receive in 34459 making our decision to grant or deny the requests. PHMSA has received the following special permit requests: Docket No. Requester Regulation(s) affected Nature of special permit PHMSA–2011–0344 .... Norgasco, Inc ............. 49 CFR 192.121 ......... The special permit request from Norgasco, Inc. (‘‘NI’’) seeks permission to use Fiberspar pipe up to the hydrostatic design basis as listed by ASTM D 2517, to construct and operate a three mile long natural gas pipeline located in the Deadhorse area of Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. The pipeline is intended to transport natural gas from the oil and gas producers on the Alaskan North Slope to the existing Deadhorse natural gas distribution utility, Norgasco, Inc. The main portion is 2.76 miles long. All portions of the pipeline are located within the Alaskan North Slope Prudhoe Bay area. The entire pipeline is in a largely unpopulated area (Class 1) area. The pipeline will be constructed of a thermoset composite pipe that is manufactured by Fiberspar LinePipe, LLC. The pipeline is expected to be constructed during the 2012/2013 Winter construction season. PHMSA–2011–0343 .... BreitBurn Energy Company LP. 49 CFR 192.53(c), 192.121, 192.123, 192.619(a). The special permit request from BreitBurn Energy Company LP (‘‘BreitBurn’’), seeks permission to use composite, reinforced thermoplastic (‘‘RTP’’) for the replacement of a segment of steel pipeline located in the city of Los Angeles, California. BreitBurn plans to insert a 6-inch OD Smart Pipe system into the current 12-inch OD segment of the existing steel gas gathering line. The line is in need of replacement due to the age of the pipeline and the recently discovered presence of internal corrosion. In August 2011, a leak developed from a threaded connection of pipe. On further examination of a cut out section, internal corrosion was found. The normal operating pressure for this line is 220 psig and the MAOP is 245 psig. This line is a Type B line as specified in 49 CFR § 192.8. The entire area through which this pipeline travels, and indeed the general area of the City of Los Angeles, is a densely populated and utilized, Class 4 location as defined in 49 CFR § 192.5. Authority: 49 U.S.C. 60118 (c)(1) and 49 CFR 1.53. Issued in Washington, DC on June 7, 2012. Jeffrey D. Wiese, Associate Administrator for Pipeline Safety.
