Dear Mr. Shoaf: 
On December 3 1,2003, the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA)' 
issued to Alyeska Pipeline Service Company (Alyeska) a Final Order. The Final Order made 
findings of violation, specified actions to be taken to comply with the pipeline safety regulations, 
and assessed a civil penalty of $62,500.~ 
Based on the recommendation of the Director, Western Region, PHMSA, it has been determined 
that you have complied with the Final Order by satisfying the requirements of the compliance 
term specified by Item 2 of the Final Order and by payment of the civil penalty. Your 
compliance with the remaining compliance term, specified by Item 8 of the Final Order, was 
resolved by a May 19,2006 Consent Order, incorporating a Consent Agreement between us. 
Accordingly, this case is now closed and no further enforcement action is contemplated with 
respect to the matters involved in this case. 
Sincerely, 
3-

I Effective February 20, 2005, the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) succeeded 
Research and Special Programs Administration (RSPA) as the agency responsible for regulating safety in pipeline 
transportation. See, section 108 of the Norman Y. Mineta Research and Special Programs Improvement Act (Public 
Law 108-426, 1 18 Stat. 2423-2429 (November 30,2004)). See also, 70 Fed. Keg. 8299 (February 18,2005) 
redelegating the pipeline safety authorities and functions to the PHMSA Administrator. 
Due to a mailing mix up, the Final Order was resent and deemed received January 14,2004. Upon Alyeska's 
January 28,2004 request, the Region, by letter dated February 12,2004, granted an extension of time to submit a 
Petition for Reconsideration until February 27, 2004. On February 26,2004, Alyeska submitted a Petition for 
Reconsideration of the Final Order. On June 23, 2004, PHMSA issued a Decision on the Petition for 
Reconsideration denying the relief sought. On August 6, 2004, Alyeska paid the $62,500 civil penalty in full.
