PROJECT DESCRIPTION:  The applicant proposes to decommission-in-place 6-inch bulk gas Pipeline Segment Number 12084.  In accordance with the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) 30 CFR 250.1750 pipeline decommissioning requirements, the applicant proposes to:  1) disconnect from previously serviced Well A, Galveston Block 151 and Platform A, High Island Block 179; 2) flush by pigging and filling with seawater to equalize the line pressure; 3) remove pipeline end risers and plug; and 4) confirm depth of cover at the pipeline ends and cover endpoints with protective sand/cement bags.  Jetting will be used to expose pipeline riser endpoints and allow pipe “cold cuts.”  There will be no dredged or fill materials involved in these operations.  No structures will be installed.  The applicant’s plans are enclosed in 6 sheets.
