    Why Pipeline Operators Choose Us

    Built for the Energy Sector's Compliance Demands

    We understand the regulatory pressure, documentation requirements, and timeline sensitivity of pipeline compliance mailings.

    Catdi Printing is a HUB (Historically Underutilized Business) Certified minority-owned business in Texas, qualifying for supplier diversity requirements on pipeline operator procurement contracts.

    Certificate of Mailing Provided

    Every compliance mailing includes USPS delivery documentation and a certificate of mailing — the paper trail your compliance team needs for PHMSA regulatory audits and pipeline safety program records.

    Corridor-Level Geographic Targeting

    We source property owner lists by county, parcel, and geographic corridor — not just ZIP code. Essential for pipeline notifications that must reach every landowner within a defined easement or buffer zone.

    Rush Production for Regulatory Deadlines

    Compliance mailings often have hard regulatory deadlines. Our Houston production facility offers same-day printing and 48-hour mailing turnaround for urgent PHMSA notification programs.

    Experienced with Energy Sector Mailings

    We serve pipeline operators, midstream companies, and E&P firms throughout Texas and the Gulf Coast. Our team understands the regulatory context and legal sensitivity of compliance correspondence.

    CASS-Certified, NCOA-Processed Lists

    All mailing lists are CASS-certified for address accuracy and NCOA-processed for move updates — reducing undeliverable mail and strengthening your documentation that notifications were properly distributed.

    How a Compliance Mailing Program Works

    From list sourcing to USPS drop-off and documentation — we handle every step.

    01

    Define Your Corridor & Recipient Universe

    We identify landowners, residents, municipalities, and first responders within your pipeline corridor using county assessor data, USPS carrier routes, and census geographies. You receive count estimates before committing.

    02

    List Processing & CASS Certification

    All addresses are CASS-certified for postal accuracy and NCOA-processed to capture recent moves. Address hygiene is critical for compliance mailings — undeliverables can create regulatory exposure.

    03

    Design & Variable Data Personalization

    We design or accept your print-ready files. Variable data technology personalizes each piece with recipient name, parcel ID, pipeline proximity, and emergency contact information unique to each geography.

    04

    Print & USPS-Compliant Production

    All pieces are printed, tabbed or inserted, and prepared to USPS specifications for the applicable mail class. We apply your permit imprint or meter postage at the most cost-effective presort level.

    05

    USPS Delivery & Documentation

    Mail is entered at the Destination Delivery Unit (DDU) serving your target area. We provide USPS postage statements, PS Form 3600 or 3602, and a certificate of mailing for your compliance files.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Under 49 CFR 192.616 (natural gas) and 195.440 (hazardous liquid), pipeline operators are required to maintain a continuing public education program. This includes annual mailings to affected residents, municipalities, emergency officials, and other stakeholders near the pipeline system notifying them of pipeline locations, emergency contacts, and what to do if they suspect a leak. We handle the full program: list sourcing, printing, USPS delivery, and certificate of mailing for your compliance documentation.
    811 damage prevention mailers reach excavators, contractors, and municipalities to remind them that they must call 811 before any ground disturbance near a pipeline corridor. We produce targeted postcards, letters, and brochures for these campaigns and can target recipients by geography, company type (construction, landscaping, utilities), and job title. These campaigns reduce third-party dig-in incidents and demonstrate good-faith damage prevention practices to PHMSA auditors.
    Yes. Every compliance mailing program includes a USPS postage statement (PS Form 3600 or 3602), and we can provide an affidavit or certificate of mailing that documents the date of mailing, recipient universe, mail class, and USPS entry point. This documentation is essential for PHMSA public education program recordkeeping requirements and state OPS audit preparation.
    We source property owner lists from county tax assessor and parcel data, allowing us to identify landowners and residents within a defined corridor or buffer zone around your pipeline. For broader community awareness programs, we supplement with USPS carrier route data to reach all deliverable addresses in affected geographic areas. All lists are CASS-certified and NCOA-processed before production.
    The PHMSA public education mailing (49 CFR 192.616 / 195.440) is a regulatory requirement with specific content requirements, defined stakeholder audiences (affected public, municipalities, emergency officials, excavators), and annual frequency mandates. Community awareness mailings are proactive communications — project introductions, construction notices, safety updates — that go beyond the regulatory minimum to build goodwill and maintain positive relationships with communities near your pipeline operations. We handle both programs.
    Yes. API RP 1162 provides recommended practices for pipeline public awareness programs that go beyond the 49 CFR minimum requirements. We can help operators develop comprehensive messaging frameworks for each stakeholder audience (affected public, local public officials, emergency responders, excavators), produce the corresponding mail pieces, and track the mailing program to support your annual program evaluation.
