SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PHMSA 

received a special permit request from 

GTN dated March 27, 2024, seeking a 

waiver from the federal pipeline safety 

regulations in 49 CFR 192.611 and 

192.619, where gas transmission 

pipeline segments have undergone 

changes from Class 2 to Class 3 

locations. The special permit request is 

for two segments of GTN’s 36-inch 

diameter Mainline A natural gas 

transmission pipeline, approximately 

2.075 miles (10,954 feet) in length, in 

Idaho. This special permit request, if 

granted, would allow GTN to operate 

the two segments at the current 

operating pressure of 911 pounds per 

square inch gauge by implementing 

enhanced integrity management 

procedures in lieu of confirming or 

revising the maximum allowable 

operating pressure of the affected 

segments when there is a class location 

change under 49 CFR 192.611. 

The special permit request, proposed 

special permit with conditions, and 

draft environmental assessment (DEA) 

for the above described GTN pipeline 

segments are available for review and 

public comment in Docket No. PHMSA– 

2024–0055. PHMSA invites interested 

persons to review and submit comments 

on the special permit request 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 its decision to grant or deny this 

special permit request. 

Issued in Washington, DC, under authority 

delegated in 49 CFR 1.97.

Associate Administrator for Pipeline Safety.
