Re: Request for Information Regarding Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) From 

Gulfstream Natural Gas System, L.L.C. 

Docket: EP A-HQ-OPPT -2009-0757 

Dear Sir or Madam: 

Gulfstream Natural Gas System, L.L.C. (Gulfstream) received the U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency's (USEPA's) October 25,2011 information request seeking knowledge or experiences 

regarding migration of PCBs through natural gas pipelines pursuant to the regulatory conditions 

for authorized use of PCBs in natural gas pipeline systems provided in 40 C.F.R. 

§761.30(i)(1)(iii)(C). The following is Gulfstream's response to the subject information request. 

The Gulfstream pipeline system was placed into service in May 2002 with no known sources of 

PCBs at concentrations greater than 50 ppm within the company's natural gas transmission 

system; nor does Gulfstream receive gas or pipeline liquids from other pipelines that contain 

PCBs at known concentrations greater than 50 ppm. It should be noted that the Gulfstream 

pipeline manages natural gas pipeline liquids as part of our routine operations and laboratory 

analyses for waste disposal profiling purposes was performed on six samples collected between 

2005 and 2010 and showed that PCBs were not present in these liquids at a detection limit of 1 

ppm. Accordingly, the provisions of 40 C.F.R. §761.30(i)(1)(iii)(C) do not apply to Gulfstream. 

Should you require further information, please do not hesitate to contact me at (941) 723-7101. 

Sincerely, 

Albert R. Taylor
