The undersigned hereby constitutes and appoints Joel C. Lambert, Michael K.

        1.     Execute for and on behalf of the undersigned (a) any Form 3,
               Form 4 and Form 5 (including amendments thereto) in accordance

               the extent each form or schedule relates to the undersigned's
               beneficial ownership of securities of Crestwood Equity Partners
               LP or any of its subsidiaries;

        2.     Do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the
               undersigned that may be necessary or desirable to complete and
               execute any Form 3, Form 4, Form 5, Form 144, Schedule 13D or
               Schedule 13G (including amendments thereto) and timely file the

               required by law or advisable to such persons as the attorney-in-
               fact deems appropriate; and

        3.     Take any other action in connection with the foregoing that, in
               the opinion of the attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to, in
               the best interest of or legally required of the undersigned, it
               being understood that the documents executed by the attorney-in-
               fact on behalf of the undersigned pursuant to this Power of
               Attorney shall be in the form and shall contain the terms and
               conditions as the attorney-in-fact may approve in the attorney-
               in-fact's discretion.

The undersigned hereby grants to the attorney-in-fact full power and authority
to do and perform all and every act requisite, necessary or proper to be done
in the exercise of any of the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all
intents and purposes as the undersigned might or could do if personally
present, with full power of substitution or revocation, hereby ratifying and
confirming all that the attorney-in-fact shall lawfully do or cause to be done
by virtue of this Power of Attorney and the rights and powers granted herein.
The undersigned acknowledges that the attorneys-in-fact, in serving in such
capacity at the request of the undersigned, are not assuming (nor is Crestwood
Equity Partners LP assuming) any of the undersigned's responsibilities to
comply with Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

The undersigned agrees that the attorney-in-fact may rely entirely on
information furnished orally or in writing by or at the direction of the
undersigned to the attorney-in-fact. The undersigned also agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless Crestwood Equity Partners LP and the attorney-in-fact against
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in these respects) that
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statements or omissions of necessary
facts in the information provided by or at the direction of the undersigned, or
upon the lack of timeliness in the delivery of information by or at the
direction of the undersigned, to the attorney-in fact for purposes of
executing, acknowledging, delivering or filing a Form 3, Form 4, Form 5, Form
144, Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G (including amendments thereto) and agrees to
reimburse Crestwood Equity Partners LP and the attorney-in-fact on demand for
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action.

This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the
undersigned is no longer required to file Form 3, Form 4, Form 5, Form 144,
Schedule 13D and Schedule 13G (including amendments thereto) with respect to
the undersigned's holdings of and transactions in securities issued by
Crestwood Equity Partners LP, unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a
signed writing delivered to the attorney-in-fact. This Power of Attorney does
not revoke any other power of attorney that the undersigned has previously
granted.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney to be
executed as of the date written below.
