SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PHMSA
received a special permit request on
March 24, 2023, from FGT seeking a
waiver from the requirements of 49 CFR
192.611(a)(3)(iii): Change in class
location: Confirmation or revision of
maximum allowable operating pressure.
Section 49 CFR 192.611(a)(3)(iii)
requires a pressure test of 0.667 times
the alternative maximum allowable
operating (Alternative MAOP) for a
Class 2 to Class 3 location change. The
requested pipeline segment extensions
are proposed to be added to special
permit Docket Number PHMSA–2020–
0044, due to the pipeline segments
being contiguous to existing special
permit segments.
This special permit is being requested
for extending class location changes in
lieu of pressure testing or pressure
reduction for five (5) special permit
segment extensions totaling 10,219 feet
(approximately 1.935 miles) of the FGT
pipeline system. The proposed special
permit segments have been previously
pressure tested to either 1,899 pounds
per square inch gauge (psig), 1,920 psig,
or 1,925 psig. The pipe wall thickness
and strength meet the requirements of
49 CFR 192.611(a)(1)(ii) for a Class 2 to
Class 3 location change. The pipeline
segments are as follows:

The FGT pipeline segments have not
been pressure tested to a high enough
pressure to meet the requirements in 49
CFR 192.611(a)(3)(iii). The special
permit segments are included in an
existing Alternative MAOP special
permit (PHMSA–2008–0077) that allows
the special permit segments to operate
at class location stress levels that meet
49 CFR 192.620(a)(1).
The special permit request, proposed
special permit with conditions, and
draft environmental assessment (DEA)
for the FGT pipelines are available for
review and public comment in Docket
No. PHMSA–2020–0044. We invite
interested persons to review and submit
comments on the special permit request,
proposed special permit with
conditions, and DEA in the docket.
Please submit comments on any
potential safety, environmental, and
other relevant considerations implicated
by the special permit request.
Comments may include relevant data.
Before issuing a decision on the
special permit request, PHMSA will
evaluate all comments received on or
before the comment closing date.
Comments received after the closing
date will be evaluated, if it is possible
to do so without incurring additional
expense or delay. PHMSA will consider
each relevant comment it receives in
making a decision to grant or deny this
request.

delegated in 49 CFR 1.97.
