Balances are presented net of historical accumulated impairment losses of $296 million for the Natural Gas Pipelines & Service segment and $1 million for the Petrochemical & Refined Products Services segment.  There have been no goodwill impairment charges recognized for the reporting units within the NGL Pipelines & Services and Crude Oil Pipelines & Services segments.
(2)
This amount represents the goodwill recognized in connection with our acquisition of Navitas Midstream in February 2022.  In general, we attribute this goodwill to our ability to leverage the acquired business with our existing NGL asset base to create future business opportunities.
