Forward Looking Statements
This presentation includes “forward looking statements” within the meaning of federal securities laws. All statements, other
than statements of historical fact, included in this presentation are forward looking statements, including statements
regarding the Partnership’s future results of operations or ability to generate income or cash flow, make acquisitions, or
make distributions to unitholders. Words such as “anticipate,” “project,” “expect,” “plan,” “goal,” “forecast,” “intend,” “could,”
“believe,” “may” and similar expressions and statements are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Although
management believes that the expectations on which such forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, neither
the Partnership nor its general partner can give assurances that such expectations will prove to be correct. Forward
looking statements rely on assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a number of uncertainties, factors and
risks, many of which are outside of management’s ability to control or predict. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties
materialize, or if underlying assumptions prove incorrect, the Partnership’s actual results may vary materially from those
anticipated, estimated, projected or expected.
Additional information concerning these and other factors that could impact the Partnership can be found in Part I, Item 1A,
“Risk Factors” of the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014 and in the other reports
it files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation, which
reflect management’s opinions only as of the date hereof. Except as required by law, the Partnership undertakes no
obligation to revise or publicly update any forward-looking statement.

Water Treatment and Processing
Operational Model
 Treatment and Disposal
– Company-owned disposal facilities provide producers affordable well-disposal of wastewater generated from oil
and natural gas production and drilling activities
– Water treatment process separates solids and hydrocarbons from water prior to disposal
– 24 x 7 operations, truck bay loading/unloading
– Certain facilities are pipeline connected, providing stronger customer relationship with the producers
– Proprietary well maintenance programs enhance injection-rates and service lives of the wells
 Solids Processing
– Significant new revenue stream through installation of supplemental equipment at existing salt water disposal
facilities
– Provides producers with in-field disposal alternative for Gels, High Solids Content Water, Water and Oil based
Mud, and Tank Bottoms generated from oil and natural gas production and drilling activities
– Generates attractive margin per barrel for NGL while providing substantial cost savings to producers through
reduced transportation and landfill disposal costs
– 24 x 7 operations, truck bay unloading
 Discharge Water
– Multi-patented 14-step water treatment process
– Cleans water to a better than drinking water quality
– Continued R&D investments to employ latest technologies in various basins

Retail Propane
Overview
Area of Operation
Segment Operations

Sell propane and petroleum distillates to
end-users consisting of residential,
agricultural, commercial and industrial
customers

Geographic diversity mitigates weather
risk

Less volatility from warm weather as
margins increase when demand falls
and vice versa

Liquids Logistics segment provides 75%
of Retail Propane segment demand

Cost plus margins allow immediate
pass-through of wholesale price
increases

The Retail Propane business is
seasonal
 ~70% of retail propane volume is sold
during the peak heating season from
October through March

Retail Propane
Operational Area

Retail Propane
What Sets Us Apart
Geographic Focus
Customer Base
Retention
Leverage Acquisition
Brand Names
Empower Local
Management
 Operational focus on regions with the highest number of degree days – North East, Upper Midwest
and Pacific NW
 In warmer weather, gross margins temporarily expand to recoup a portion of revenues lost to
volume declines
 Retain and grow customer base by pricing product competitive with other regional retailers

Acquisition model assumes independent / “mom-and-pop” margins continue
 Retain local brand - no change to uniforms, invoices, signs or trucks
 Ownership change is seamless to customers while simultaneously saving on capital expenditures
and expenses
 Decisions regarding pricing, advertising, vehicles and other expenses are made at the regional and
district levels
 Fosters swift decision making by leadership attuned to the local or regional market
 Daily price changes at supply points are communicated to local management
 Efforts are made to retain employees of acquired businesses
Employee Retention
Quickly Implement
Operational
Improvements
 Aides in preservation of customer relationships, safeguarding knowledge of local market dynamics,
and prevents the creation of ex-employees investing in competitive propane assets
▪ History of successful acquisitions with demonstrated track record of improving profitability through
operational efficiencies, not margin enhancement

Improved vehicle routing, consolidated back office functions, less expensive insurance, etc.
