of Operations,

1. We note your response to comment one. The presentation of Total Segment
Adjusted
EBITDA in any context other than the ASC 280 required reconciliation in
the footnote is
the presentation of a non-GAAP measure. Because the non-GAAP measure on a
consolidated basis includes amounts for unconsolidated affiliates based
on the
Partnership's proportionate ownership, it does not comply with the
guidance in Question
100.04 of the Non-GAAP Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations. Please
revise to
exclude this presentation or tell us why you do not believe the
consolidated measure
conflicts with this guidance.
