Houston, Texas 77027

Dear Mr. Russell:

We were recently asked to respond to your letter of August 11, 1978, to Mr. Robert F. Aubry, Chief, Southwest Region, asking whether a 6 5/8 inch pipeline running between EHI platforms "A" and "B" is subject to 49 CFR Part 192.

Since the pipeline lies downstream from platform "b"; which is a production facility where produced hydrocarbons are first separated, dehydrated, or otherwise processed, then in accordance with Section 192.1, the pipeline is subject to Part 192.

Sincerely,

/signed/

Cesar DeLeon

Associate Director for

Pipeline Safety Regulation
