Active Corrosion
-continuing corrosion
						which, unless controlled, could result in a condition that is detrimental to
						public safety or the environment.
Buried
-covered or in contact with
						soil.
Direct Assessment
- an integrity
						assessment method that utilizes a process to evaluate certain threats (i.e.,
						external corrosion, internal corrosion and stress corrosion cracking) to a
						pipeline segment's integrity. The process includes the gathering and
						integration of risk factor data, indirect examination or analysis to identify
						areas of suspected corrosion, direct examination of the pipeline in these
						areas, and post assessment evaluation.
Electrical Survey
-a series of closely
						spaced pipe-to-soil readings over a pipeline that are subsequently analyzed to
						identify locations where a corrosive current is leaving the pipeline.
External Corrosion Direct Assessment
						(ECDA)
- a four-step process that combines pre-assessment, indirect
						inspection, direct examination, and post-assessment to evaluate the threat of
						external corrosion to the integrity of a pipeline.
Pipeline Environment
-includes soil
						resistivity (high or low), soil moisture (wet or dry), soil contaminants that
						may promote corrosive activity, and other known conditions that could affect
						the probability of active corrosion.
You
-operator.

A. Upon determination that a probable
				  violation of
				  R.S.
				  30:701 et seq., or any rule, regulation or
				  order issued thereunder has occurred, the assistant secretary may institute
				  enforcement procedures by serving upon the hazardous liquid pipeline operator a
				  letter of non-compliance notifying said operator of said probable violation and
				  directing said operator to correct said violation within a designated period of
				  time to be determined by the assistant secretary or be subject to enforcement
				  action prescribed by §31311-31319 A copy of the field inspection report or
				  other evidence of violation shall be attached to the letter of non-compliance.
				  The letter of non-compliance may inform the operator of the time at which
				  reinspection of the facility will be conducted to confirm compliance and shall
				  inform the operator of the time delays and procedure available to said operator
				  for securing relief from said letter of non-compliance.
B. Except in cases of emergency action
				  instituted pursuant to §31315, within seven days of receipt of a letter of
				  non-compliance, the operator who believes himself to be in compliance with the
				  applicable statute and the rules, regulations or orders issued thereunder or
				  who believes the time limits imposed upon him for compliance to be burdensome,
				  may request a conference before the assistant secretary or his designated
				  agent. The operators request for said conference may be verbal or presented in
				  writing.
C. The conference before
				  the assistant secretary or his agent shall be informal without strict adherence
				  to rules of evidence. The operator may submit any relevant information and
				  materials which shall become part of the record and may examine the assistant

				  deemed appropriate by the assistant secretary and upon request of the operator,
				  this conference may be held by telephone conference.
D. Upon conclusion of the conference for
				  relief, the assistant secretary may issue to the operator a modified letter of
				  non-compliance extending the time for compliance or containing such other terms
				  and conditions as may be appropriate considering the nature of the probable
				  violation, the circumstances and exigency of the situation.
