Dear Mr. Coughlin:

Your letter of December 28, 1990, to the Secretary of Transportation was referred to this Office for response. The issue you raise involves Peoples Gas, which is an intrastate natural gas utility company, and as such is under the jurisdiction of the Illinois Commerce Commission (ILCC).

Specifically, the ILCC adopted and enforces the pipeline drug regulation 49 CFR Part 199 (which includes 40 CFR Part 40) with respect to intrastate natural gas pipeline operators in Illinois.

We have requested that the ILCC investigate and advise you and this Office of the results of their investigation.

Sincerely,

George W. Tenley, Jr

Associate Administrator for

Pipeline Safety
