Pipelines are the safest and most efficient way to hydrocarbons US Highlights: - More than 300,000 miles of natural gas transmission pipeline - More than 2.1 million miles of distribution pipeline - More than 25 Tcf natural gas moved via pipeline in 2017 - 72,000 miles of crude pipelines - 63,000 miles of refined product pipeline - US DOT regulates pipeline safety • Gathering – gather raw natural gas from production wells and transport it to large cross-country transmission pipelines • Transmission – transport natural gas thousands of miles from processing facilities across many parts of the continental United States • Distribution – distribute natural gas to homes and businesses through large distribution lines mains and service lines. Types of Pipelines Product Transportation System Tank Farm Rack Pipeline Tanker Refinery Gas Station US Pipelines Colonial Pipeline • Transports more than 3MMBBL of gasoline, diesel, and kerosene from the US Gulf Coast to the New York/New Jersey area. • More than 5,500 miles of pipeline, including mainline and offshoots • 4 Main lines • 40-inch Houston to Greensboro, NC – 1.5 MMBBL • 36-inch Houston to Greensboro, NC – 1.2 MMBBL • 33-inch Greensboro, NC to Baltimore – 885 MBBL • 32-inch Greensboro, NC to Baltimore – 700 MBBL • Major Spurs • Atlanta to Southern Georgia • Atlanta to Tennessee • Greensboro to Raleigh • Central Virginia to Richmond, Norfolk, and Roanoke • Product moves at 5 MPH • Can make it from Houston to New York in about 20 days Colonial Pipeline Product refined mainly in Houston, Beaumont, and the Lake Charles area. Main delivery point is the East Coast During hurricanes the whole East Coast is adversely affected Example: Hurricanes Rita, Ike, Harvey, Sandy Supply low Prices increase 20% of all liquid product delivered by pipelines utilize Colonial 70% of the liquid fuel supply to GA, SC, NC, TN, and VA Plantation Pipeline Starts in Baton Rouge; ends in Washington DC 700,000 barrels moved per day 3,180 miles; takes 20 days Cost: $0.03/gallon to move from Baton Rouge to DC Product is from 9 refineries in Louisiana and Mississippi Product includes gasoline, diesel, kerosene, and jet fuel Focuses on delivering to Virginia and North Carolina Fewer offloading points in Southeast than Colonial What’s Happening with Pipelines today? • By the end of 2018, EIA expects natural gas pipeline capacity into the South Central region of the United States to reach almost 19 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d). The region has shifted from being a source of natural gas supply to a source of growing demand, reversing the historical flows of natural gas in the Lower 48 states. Natural gas pipeline projects scheduled to come online in 2018 will bring additional supply to the Gulf Coast and support growing export markets. • Of the additional 6.4 Bcf/d of Northeast capacity planned to come online in 2018, more than 2.8 Bcf/d reaches the South Central region directly through three projects that transport natural gas through the Midwest and Southeast: Rayne Xpress, Gulf Xpress, and Atlantic Sunrise. Further west, Natural Gas Pipeline of America’s Gulf Coast Southbound Phase 1 is scheduled to enter service in October 2018. This pipeline will transport up to 0.46 Bcf/d of natural gas from Illinois into south Texas and Louisiana, where it will supply the Corpus Christi LNG export facility and pipelines into Mexico. The LNG export facilities scheduled to come online in 2018 and 2019 represent an additional 6.1 Bcf/d of LNG export capacity, requiring infrastructure to connect them to the interstate pipeline network and deliver large volumes of natural gas to the liquefaction terminals. The United States currently has two operational LNG export facilities, which have a combined export capacity of 3.5 Bcf/d: Sabine Pass Trains 1-4 (2.8 Bcf/d) and Cove Point (0.8 Bcf/d). In addition to Train 5 at Sabine Pass, four new LNG export facilities are under construction, three of which are located in the South Central region. All three of these facilities have associated pipeline projects that are scheduled to be completed this year: • Freeport LNG will be supplied in part by the Coastal Bend Header Project (1.5 Bcf/d) • Cameron LNG will be supplied in part by Columbia Gulf Transmission’s Cameron Access Project (0.8 Bcf/d) and Tennessee Gas Pipeline’s Southwest Louisiana Supply Project (0.9 Bcf/d) • Corpus Christi LNG will be supplied in part by the Cheniere Corpus Christi Pipeline Project (2.25 Bcf/d) Tellurian received FERC approval in January to start construction on a LNG facility which is scheduled to consume 4.0 Bcf/d. They are trying to vertically integrate the process, cutting out the middleman, owning the up-, mid-, and downstream processes. LNG – What is it? And why is it important? Security • Active Surveillance: • Ground patrol • Aerial patrol • Video surveillance • Excavation requests • Internal inspections 5 Measures DHS Recommends for Pipeline Operators Source: https://www.tsa.gov/sites/default/files/pipeline_security_guidelines.pdf • On April 4, 2018, there was a coordinated cyberattack on a shared data network which four of the natural gas pipelines utilize, shutting it down. • This attack did not interrupt service, but interrupted consumer transactions. • It has been theorized that Russia was behind the attack. • Testing the robustness of the pipeline companies’ security • Challenging Russia’s dominance of the European natural gas market with LNG • Attacks on Saudi Arabia and Ukraine have happened in the past Cybersecurity • Pipeline Security Initiative (PSI) launched to address growing threats • Most of the focus on energy has been on the grid, not pipelines Concerns Moving Forward • Pipelines are among the top targets of cyberterrorists • 33% of America’s top pipeline system admit to not having enough security • Too many organizations monitoring? (PHMSA, FERC, DHS, DOT, OPS + states) • Natural hazards (weather, climate change, earthquakes, floods).

Since that time, the shutdowns of several Gulf area petroleum refineries and widespread power outages in the Louisiana area caused by Hurricane Gustav have resulted in the curtailment in the production and delivery of low volatility gasoline to the fuel pipelines originating in the Gulf area that serve each of your states. On September 4' and 5', I received requests made by you, or on your behalf, for a waiver mder theClem &Act (CAA) to address a fuel supply--y------- emergency caused by Hurricane Gustav. In response to those requests, EPA has determined, and the Umted States Department of Energy (DOE) concurs, that it is necessary to take action to minimize or prevent disruption of an adequate supply of gasoline in those portions of Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and North Carolina in which low volatility gasoline is required. By this letter, I am granting a waiver of those low volatility requirements, as described below.

    Midwest and Rocky Mountain Transportation Fuels Markets March 2017 Independent Statistics & Analysis U.S. Department of Energy www.eia.gov Washington, DC 20585 This report was prepared by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), the statistical and analytical agency within the U.S. Department of Energy. By law, EIA’s data, analyses, and forecasts are independent of approval by any other officer or employee of the United States Government. The views in this report therefore should not be construed as representing those of the U.S. Department of Energy or other federal agencies. U.S. Energy Information Administration | Midwest and Rocky Mountain Transportation Fuels Markets i March 2017 Introduction A new study commissioned by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), find that changes in North American energy markets over the past decade have strengthened the supply of transportation fuels including motor gasoline, distillates, and jet fuel in the Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions. The development of Canadian oil sands crude and the emergence of light, tight crude oil in the United States have provided refiners in the Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions with access to abundant, cost-advantaged crude supply, providing opportunities to optimize crude slates and expand refinery capacity and utilization. Increased refinery production, combined with moderating demands for transportation fuels, has enabled suppliers in the Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions to reduce their dependence on inbound transportation fuels supply from the Gulf Coast, and has enhanced the redundancy and resiliency of their transportation fuels supply chains. Refinery capacity and production of transportation fuels in the Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions grew significantly between 2005 and 2015, and fuels markets and supply chains in these regions have become increasingly self-sufficient.

Lone Star Project Docket No. CP16-496-000 TO THE PARTY ADDRESSED: The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or Commission) has prepared an environmental assessment (EA) for the Lone Star Project, proposed by Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company, LLC (Tennessee) in the above-referenced docket. Tennessee requests authorization to construct and operate two new compressor stations in San Patricio and Jackson Counties, Texas. The EA assesses the potential environmental effects of construction and operation of the Lone Star Project in accordance with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act. The FERC staff concludes that approval of the proposed project, with appropriate mitigating measures, would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. The proposed Lone Star Project includes the following facilities: • one new bi-directional enclosed Compressor Station 3A in San Patricio County, Texas, consisting of one 10,915 horsepower (hp) International Organization for Standardization (ISO) rated Solar Taurus 70 turbine/compressor unit and associated appurtenances; and • one new bi-directional enclosed Compressor Station 11A in Jackson County, Texas, consisting of one 20,500-hp ISO rated Solar Titan 130 turbine/compressor unit and appurtenances.
