INFORMATION AVAILABLE
	By clicking on the individual platforms, a table will pop up with the following information: Operator:  The operator of the platform Area/Block:  The administrative area (abbreviation) and lease block location Diameter:  Diameter of pipeline in inches Product:  Primary entity moving through pipeline Status as of 1/19/06:  Status of pipeline as listed in report
IT'S WORTH NOTING...
	· The map symbol was placed at the center point of the pipeline segment: it doesn't imply that the damage was at that specific point. · Comparisons with the overlay of all pipelines may be confusing since the overlay includes only active pipelines while some pipelines in this layer were already abandoned.
