Pipeline integrity and safety have risen to new levels of public concern.
In the aftermath of the incidents at Bellingham, Washington and Carlsbad, New Mexico new pipeline safety regulations and legislation will require increased focus on pipeline integrity programs.
As a proactive approach to address these concerns, ETS Operations is establishing a Pipeline Integrity Program Management Group.
This group will be responsible for pipeline integrity issues for EOTT and ETS and financial reporting of EOTT's environmental and remediation projects.
The group will include the following functions:  corrosion, pipeline safety and pipeline integrity.
I am pleased to announce that Mike Nelson will relocate to Houston to lead this new initiative, as Vice President Pipeline Integrity Program Management.
Reporting directly to Mike are Max Brown and Dave Johnson.
The establishment of this new function, along with Mike's move, has given us the opportunity to rotate key staff, allowing us to achieve a broader knowledge base for the future of ETS Operations.
I am pleased to announce the following additional changes:                                                                                    Rick Craig - Vice President Southeast Operations                                                                                   Dan Pribble - Vice President Southwest Operations                                                                                  Randy Rice - Senior Director North Operations    Rick Craig and Dan Pribble will continue to office in Houston.
