RE: Corrosion control on gathering systems in nonrural areas.
Dear Mr. Caldwell:
Having reviewed Subpart I of the Minimum Federal Safety Standards a question has been raised as to whether the requirements for Subpart I are applicable to gathering systems in nonrural areas. No mention is made in Subpart I of gathering systems and only transmission and distribution systems are mentioned.
Your prompt reply to this inquiry is appreciated.
Very truly yours,
JON F. JACQUOT

Dear Mr. Jacquot:
This responds to your letter of May 14, 1974, asking whether Subpart I of 49 CFR Part 192 applies to gathering systems in nonrural areas.
Subpart I applies to all pipelines subject to Part 192, including gathering lines in nonrural areas as described in section 192.1. Where certain requirements in Subpart I specifically relate to transmission lines, these requirements apply with equal force to gathering lines as provided in section 192.9.
We trust this satisfactorily answers your inquiry.
Sincerely,
Joseph C. Caldwell
Director
Office of Pipeline Safety
