Crestwood Equity is a holding company and all of its consolidated operating assets are owned by or through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Crestwood Midstream, a Delaware limited partnership.

Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and include the accounts of all consolidated subsidiaries after the elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions. In management’s opinion, all necessary adjustments to fairly present our results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented have been made and all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Significant Accounting Policies

There were no material changes in our significant accounting policies from those described in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Below is an update of our accounting policies related to Goodwill and Unit-Based Compensation, and a description of Crestwood Equity's Long Term Incentive Plan.

Goodwill. The goodwill impairments recorded during the first quarter of 2016 primarily resulted from increasing the discount rates utilized in determining the fair value of the reporting units considering the significant, sustained decrease in the market price of our common units and the continued decrease in commodity prices and its impact on the midstream industry and our customers during that period. We utilized the income approach to determine the fair value of our reporting units given the limited availability of comparable market-based transactions as of March 31, 2016, and we utilized discount rates ranging from 10% to 19% in applying the income approach to determine the fair value of our reporting units with goodwill as of March 31, 2016.

15

The following table summarizes goodwill impairments of certain of our reporting units recorded during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 (in millions):

Gathering and Processing
Marcellus	$	8.6
Storage and Transportation
COLT	13.7
Marketing, Supply and Logistics
Supply and Logistics	65.5
Storage and Terminals	14.1
Trucking	7.8
Total	$	109.7

Unit-Based Compensation. Effective January 1, 2017, we adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including the classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and the presentation on the statement of cash flows. The adoption of this accounting standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Crestwood Equity Long Term Incentive Plan. As of September 30, 2017, Crestwood Equity had 404,847 performance units outstanding under the Crestwood Equity Partners LP Long Term Incentive Plan (Crestwood LTIP) that were issued in 2017. The performance units are designed to provide an incentive for continuous employment to certain key employees. The vesting of performance units is subject to the attainment of certain performance and market goals over a three-year period, and entitle a participant to receive common units of Crestwood Equity without payment of an exercise price upon vesting. As of September 30, 2017, we had total unamortized compensation expense of approximately $7.6 million related to these performance units, which we expect will be amortized during the next three years. We recognized compensation expense of approximately $0.9 million and $2.9 million under the Crestwood LTIP related to these performance units during the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017, which is included in general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statements of operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted

As of September 30, 2017, the following accounting standards had not yet been adopted by us:

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance. We anticipate utilizing the modified retrospective method to adopt the provisions of this standard effective January 1, 2018 and are currently applying the provisions of the standard to our aggregated listing of gathering and processing, storage and transportation, and marketing, supply and logistics revenue contracts that involve revenue generating activities that occur after January 1, 2018. We are also in the process of implementing appropriate changes to our processes, systems and controls to support the accounting and disclosure requirements of the new standard. We are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements, and currently believe that the standard will require us to begin classifying certain capital expenditure reimbursements received from our customers as deferred revenue rather than as reductions of property, plant and equipment in our consolidated financial statements.  We currently anticipate that approximately $60 million to $70 million of these net reimbursements will be reclassified to net deferred revenue on January 1, 2018, which would result in a $15 million to $25 million cumulative effect of accounting change being recorded as an increase to partners' capital on January 1, 2018.  In addition, we currently believe that the standard will require us to begin classifying service revenues on certain of our gathering and processing contracts as reductions of costs of product sold prospectively beginning January 1, 2018.  We continue to evaluate the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements, especially as it relates to non-cash consideration received under certain of our gathering, processing, storage and transportation contracts.

16

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which revises the accounting for leases by requiring certain leases to be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, and requiring companies to disclose additional information about their leasing arrangements. We expect to adopt the provisions of this standard effective January 1, 2019 and are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which clarifies how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. We expect to adopt the provisions of this standard effective January 1, 2018 and are currently evaluating the impact that this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which changes the annual quantitative goodwill impairment test to eliminate the current two step method and replace it with a single test to determine if goodwill is impaired and the amount of any impairment. We are required to adopt the provisions of this standard by January 1, 2020 and are currently evaluating the impact that this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 4 - Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

Crestwood Permian Basin Holdings LLC

In October 2016, Crestwood Infrastructure, our wholly-owned subsidiary, and an affiliate of First Reserve formed a joint venture, Crestwood Permian Basin Holdings LLC (Crestwood Permian), to fund and own the Nautilus gathering system (described below) and other potential investments in the Delaware Permian. As part of this transaction, we transferred to the Crestwood Permian joint venture 100% of the equity interests of Crestwood Permian Basin LLC (Crestwood Permian Basin), which owns the Nautilus gathering system. We manage and account for our 50% ownership interest in Crestwood Permian, which is a VIE, under the equity method of accounting as we exercise significant influence, but do not control Crestwood Permian and we are not its primary beneficiary due to First Reserve’s rights to exercise control over the entity.

Crestwood Permian Basin has a long-term agreement with SWEPI LP (SWEPI), a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell plc, to construct, own and operate a natural gas gathering system (the Nautilus gathering system) in SWEPI’s operated position in the Delaware Permian. SWEPI has dedicated to Crestwood Permian Basin approximately 100,000 acres and gathering rights for SWEPI’s gas production across a large acreage position in Loving, Reeves and Ward Counties, Texas. The Nautilus gathering system is designed to include 194 miles of low pressure gathering lines, 36 miles of high pressure trunklines and centralized compression facilities, which are expandable over time as production increases, providing gas gathering capacity of

17

approximately 250 MMcf/d. The initial build-out of the Nautilus gathering system was completed on June 6, 2017 and includes 20 receipt point meters, 60 miles of pipeline, a 24-mile high pressure header system, 10,800 horsepower of compression and a high pressure delivery point. Crestwood Permian Basin provides gathering, dehydration, compression and liquids handling services to SWEPI on a fixed fee basis. In October 2017, Shell Midstream Partners L.P. (Shell Midstream), a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell plc, purchased a 50% equity interest in Crestwood Permian Basin for approximately $37.9 million in cash.

CEQP issued a guarantee in conjunction with the Crestwood Permian Basin gas gathering agreement with SWEPI described above, under which CEQP has agreed to fund 100% of the costs to build the Nautilus gathering system (which is currently estimated to cost $180 million, of which approximately $72.7 million has been spent through September 30, 2017) if Crestwood Permian fails to do so. We do not believe this guarantee is probable of resulting in future losses based on our assessment of the nature of the guarantee, the financial condition of the guaranteed party and the period of time that the guarantee has been outstanding, and as a result, we have not recorded a liability on our balance sheet at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

On June 21, 2017, we contributed to Crestwood Permian 100% of theequity interest of Crestwood New Mexico Pipeline LLC (Crestwood New Mexico), our wholly-owned subsidiary that owns our Delaware Basin assets located in Eddy County, New Mexico. This contribution was treated as a transaction between entities under common control (because of our relationship with First Reserve), and accordingly we deconsolidated Crestwood New Mexico and our investment in Crestwood Permian was increased by the historical book value of these assets of approximately $69.4 million. In conjunction with this contribution, First Reserve has agreed to contribute to Crestwood Permian the first $151 million of capital cost required to fund the expansion of the Delaware Basin assets, which includes a new processing plant located in Orla, Texas and associated pipelines (Orla processing plant).

Pursuant to Crestwood Permian's limited liability company agreement, we will receive 100% of Crestwood New Mexico's available cash (as defined in the limited liability company agreement) until the earlier of the Orla processing plant in-service date or June 30, 2018, at which time the distributions will be based on the members respective ownership percentages. Because our ownership and distribution percentages will differ during this period, equity earnings from Crestwood Permian is determined using the Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (HLBV) method. Under the HLBV method, a calculation is prepared at each balance sheet date to determine the amount that we would receive if Crestwood Permian were to liquidate all of its assets, as valued in accordance with GAAP, and distribute that cash to the members. The difference between the calculated liquidation distribution amounts at the beginning and the end of the reporting period, after adjusting for capital contributions and distributions, is our share of the earnings or losses from the equity investment for the period, which approximates how earnings are allocated under the terms of the limited liability company agreement.

Stagecoach Gas Services LLC. In June 2016, we contributed to Stagecoach Gas Services LLC (Stagecoach Gas) the entities owning the Northeast storage and transportation assets. Additionally, Con Edison Gas Pipeline Storage Northeast, LLC (CEGP), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Consolidated Edison, Inc., contributed $945 million to Stagecoach Gas in exchange for a 50% equity interest in Stagecoach Gas, and Stagecoach Gas distributed to us the cash proceeds received (net of approximately $3 million of cash transferred to the joint venture) from CEGP. Pursuant to the Stagecoach Gas limited liability company agreement, we may be required to make payments of up to $57 million to CEGP after December 31, 2020 if certain criteria are not met by Stagecoach Gas by December 31, 2020, including achieving certain performance targets on growth capital projects. We do not believe that this provision is probable of resulting in future payments to CEGP, and as a result we have not recorded a liability on our balance sheet as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

We deconsolidated the Northeast storage and transportation assets as a result of this transaction discussed above and began accounting for our 50% equity interest in Stagecoach under the equity method of accounting. We recognized a loss on the deconsolidation of the Northeast storage and transportation assets of approximately $32.9 million.

During 2015, we recorded an impairment of our PRBIC equity investment as further discussed in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For the year ended December 31, 2016, PRBIC recorded a $41.3 million impairment of its goodwill and long-lived assets and as a result, we adjusted our excess basis in PRBIC by approximately $8.3 million to reflect our proportionate share of the fair value of PRBIC's net assets. Our PRBIC investment is included in our storage and transportation segment.

(5) As of September 30, 2017, our equity in the underlying net assets of Crestwood Permian exceeded our investment balance by approximately $22.0 million, which is entirely attributable to goodwill and, as such, is not subject to amortization.

Note 5 – Risk Management

We are exposed to certain market risks related to our ongoing business operations. These risks include exposure to changing commodity prices. We utilize derivative instruments to manage our exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices, which is discussed below. Additional information related to our derivatives is discussed in Note 6.

Commodity Derivative Instruments and Price Risk Management

Risk Management Activities

We sell NGLs and crude oil to energy related businesses and may use a variety of financial and other instruments including forward contracts involving physical delivery of NGLs, heating oil and crude oil. We periodically enter into offsetting positions to economically hedge against the exposure our customer contracts create. Certain of these contracts and positions are derivative instruments. We do not designate any of our commodity-based derivatives as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. Our commodity-based derivatives are reflected at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets, and changes in the fair value of these derivatives that impact the consolidated statements of operations are reflected in costs of product/services sold. During the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017, the impact to our consolidated statements of operations related to our commodity-based derivatives reflected in costs of product/services sold was a loss of $24.1 million and $22.6 million. During the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, the impact to the statement of operations related to our commodity-based derivatives reflected in costs of product/services sold was a gain of $2.1 million and $4.1 million. We attempt to balance our contractual portfolio in terms of notional amounts and timing of performance and delivery obligations. This balance in the contractual portfolio significantly reduces the volatility in costs of product/services sold related to these instruments.

20

Commodity Price and Credit Risk

Notional Amounts and Terms

The notional amounts and terms of our derivative financial instruments include the following:

	September 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
	Fixed Price Payor	Fixed Price Receiver	Fixed Price Payor	Fixed Price Receiver
Propane, crude and heating oil (MMBbls)	19.7	22.7	13.1	15.1
Natural gas (MMBTU’s)	0.9	0.6	—	—

Notional amounts reflect the volume of transactions, but do not represent the amounts exchanged by the parties to the financial instruments. Accordingly, notional amounts do not reflect our monetary exposure to market or credit risks.

All contracts subject to price risk had a maturity of 35 months or less; however, 87% of the contracted volumes will be delivered or settled within 12 months.

Credit Risk

Inherent in our contractual portfolio are certain credit risks. Credit risk is the risk of loss from nonperformance by suppliers, customers or financial counterparties to a contract. We take an active role in managing credit risk and have established control procedures, which are reviewed on an ongoing basis. We attempt to minimize credit risk exposure through credit policies and periodic monitoring procedures as well as through customer deposits, letters of credit and entering into netting agreements that allow for offsetting counterparty receivable and payable balances for certain financial transactions, as deemed appropriate. The counterparties associated with our price risk management activities are primarily energy marketers and propane retailers, resellers and dealers.

Certain of our derivative instruments have credit limits that require us to post collateral. The amount of collateral required to be posted is a function of the net liability position of the derivative as well as our established credit limit with the respective counterparty. If our credit rating were to change, the counterparties could require us to post additional collateral. The amount of additional collateral that would be required to be posted would vary depending on the extent of change in our credit rating as well as the requirements of the individual counterparty. The aggregate fair value of all commodity derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $30.1 million and $13.9 million. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we posted less than $0.1 million of collateral for our commodity derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features. In addition, at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had a New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) related net derivative asset position of $30.7 million and $14.3 million, for which we posted $25.2 million and $4.2 million of cash collateral in the normal course of business. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we also received collateral of $5.7 million and $4.3 million in the normal course of business. All collateral amounts have been netted against the asset or liability with the respective counterparty and are reflected in our consolidated balance sheets as assets and liabilities from price risk management activities.

Note 6 – Fair Value Measurements

The accounting standard for fair value measurement establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

• Level 1—Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, listed equities and US government treasury securities.

• Level 2—Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various

21

assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as over the counter (OTC) forwards, options and physical exchanges.

• Level 3—Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value based on the short-term nature of these instruments.

Credit Facility

The fair value of the amounts outstanding under our CMLP credit facility approximates the carrying amounts as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, due primarily to the variable nature of the interest rate of the instrument, which is considered a Level 2 fair value measurement.

Senior Notes

We estimate the fair value of our senior notes primarily based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issuances (representing a Level 2 fair value measurement). The following table reflects the carrying value (reduced for deferred financing costs associated with the respective notes) and fair value of our senior notes (in millions):

	September 30, 2017				December 31, 2016
	Carrying  Amount		Fair Value		Carrying  Amount		Fair Value
2020 Senior Notes	$	—	$	—	$	340.6	$	350.2
2022 Senior Notes	$	—	$	—	$	429.3	$	447.3
2023 Senior Notes	$	691.7	$	724.7	$	690.6	$	722.6
2025 Senior Notes	$	492.1	$	511.5	$	—	$	—

Financial Assets and Liabilities

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we held certain assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, which include our derivative instruments related to heating oil, crude oil, and NGLs. Our derivative instruments consist of forwards, swaps, futures, physical exchanges and options.

Our derivative instruments that are traded on the NYMEX have been categorized as Level 1.

Our derivative instruments also include OTC contracts, which are not traded on a public exchange. The fair values of these derivative instruments are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. These instruments have been categorized as Level 2.

Our OTC options are valued based on the Black Scholes option pricing model that considers time value and volatility of the underlying commodity. The inputs utilized in the model are based on publicly available information as well as broker quotes. These options have been categorized as Level 2.

Our financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

Credit Facility

At September 30, 2017, Crestwood Midstream had $548.7 million of available capacity under its credit facility considering the most restrictive debt covenants in its credit agreement. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, Crestwood Midstream's outstanding standby letters of credit were $63.6 million and $64.0 million. Borrowings under the credit facility accrue interest at prime or Eurodollar based rates plus applicable spreads, which resulted in interest rates between 3.49% and 5.50% at September 30, 2017 and 3.21% and 5.25% at December 31, 2016. The weighted-average interest rate as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was 3.50% and 3.23%.

Crestwood Midstream is required under its credit agreement to maintain a net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio (as defined in its credit agreement) of not more than 5.50 to 1.0, a consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense ratio (as defined in its credit agreement) of not less than 2.50 to 1.0, and a senior secured leverage ratio (as defined in its credit agreement) of not more than 3.75 to 1.0. At September 30, 2017, the net debt to consolidated EBITDA was approximately 4.13 to 1.0, the consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense was approximately 4.08 to 1.0, and the senior secured leverage ratio was 1.11 to 1.0.

The CMLP credit facility allows Crestwood Midstream to increase its available borrowings under the facility by $350.0 million, subject to lender approval and the satisfaction of certain other conditions, as described in the credit agreement.

Senior Notes

Repayments. During the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017, Crestwood Midstream paid approximately $457.8 million to purchase, redeem and/or cancel all of the principal amount outstanding under the 2022 Senior Notes and approximately $349.9 million to redeem all of the principal amount outstanding under the 2020 Senior Notes. Crestwood Midstream funded the repayments with a combination of net proceeds from the issuance of the 2025 Senior Notes described below and borrowings under the credit facility. In conjunction with these note repayments, Crestwood Midstream (i) recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $37.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 (including the write off of approximately $6.8 million of deferred financing costs associated with the 2022 Senior Notes); and (ii) paid $5.1 million and $1.0 million of accrued interest on the 2020 Senior Notes and 2022 Senior Notes, respectively, on the date they were tendered.

In June 2016, Crestwood Midstream paid approximately $312.9 million to purchase and cancel approximately $161.2 million and $163.6 million of the principal amounts outstanding under its 2020 Senior Notes and 2022 Senior Notes, respectively, utilizing a portion of the proceeds received from Stagecoach Gas, as further discussed in Note 4. Crestwood Midstream recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt of approximately $10 million in conjunction with the early tender of these notes.

2025 Senior Notes. In March 2017, Crestwood Midstream issued $500 million of 5.75% unsecured senior notes due 2025 (the 2025 Senior Notes) in a private offering. The 2025 Senior Notes will mature on April 1, 2025, and interest is payable

24

semiannually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning October 1, 2017. The net proceeds from this offering of approximately $492 million were used to repay amounts outstanding under the 2020 Senior Notes and the 2022 Senior Notes.

In May 2017, Crestwood Midstream filed a registration statement with the SEC under which it offered to exchange new senior notes for any and all outstanding 2025 Senior Notes. Crestwood Midstream completed the exchange offer in July 2017. The terms of the exchange notes are substantially identical to the terms of the 2025 Senior Notes, except that the exchange notes are freely tradable.

At September 30, 2017, Crestwood Midstream was in compliance with all of its debt covenants applicable to the CMLP credit facility and its senior notes.

Note 8 - Earnings Per Limited Partner Unit

Our net income (loss) attributable to Crestwood Equity Partners is allocated to the subordinated and limited partner unitholders based on their ownership percentage after giving effect to net income attributable to the Preferred Units. We calculate basic net income per limited partner unit using the two-class method. Diluted net income per limited partner unit is computed using the treasury stock method, which considers the impact to net income attributable to Crestwood Equity Partners and limited partner units from the potential issuance of limited partner units.

We exclude potentially dilutive securities from the determination of diluted earnings per unit (as well as their related income statement impacts) when their impact on net income attributable to Crestwood Equity Partners per limited partner unit is anti-dilutive. During the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017, we excluded a weighted-average of 7,125,744 and 6,968,210 common units (representing preferred units), a weighted-average of 7,277,340 common units in both periods (representing Crestwood Niobrara's preferred units), and a weighted-average of 438,789 common units in both periods (representing subordinated units). During the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we excluded a weighted-average of 6,502,907 and 6,358,626 common units (representing preferred units), and a weighted-average of 8,669,633 common units in both periods (representing Crestwood Niobrara's preferred units) and a weighted-average of 438,789 common units in both periods (representing subordinated units). See Note 9 for additional information regarding the potential conversion of our preferred units and Crestwood Niobrara's preferred units to common units.

Note 9 – Partners’ Capital

Preferred Units

Subject to certain conditions, the holders of the Preferred Units have the right to convert their Preferred Units into (i) common units on a 1-for-10 basis or (ii) a number of common units determined pursuant to a conversion ratio set forth in Crestwood Equity's partnership agreement upon the occurrence of certain events, such as a change in control. The Preferred Units have voting rights that are identical to the voting rights of the common units and will vote with the common units as a single class, with each Preferred Unit entitled to one vote for each common unit into which such Preferred Unit is convertible, except that the Preferred Units are entitled to vote as a separate class on any matter on which all unitholders are entitled to vote that adversely affects the rights, powers, privileges or preferences of the Preferred Units in relation to Crestwood Equity's other securities outstanding.

Common Units

On August 4, 2017, we entered into an equity distribution agreement with certain financial institutions (each, a Manager), under which we may offer and sell from time to time through one or more of the Managers, common units having an aggregate offering price of up to $250 million. Common units sold pursuant to this at-the-market (ATM) equity distribution program are issued under a registration statement that became effective on April 12, 2017. We will pay the Managers an aggregate fee of up to 2.0% (which totaled $0.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017) of the gross sales price per common unit sold under our ATM equity distribution program. The table below shows the units issued and the net proceeds from the issuances:

Issuance Dates	Common Units	Net Proceeds(1) (in millions)
Third Quarter 2017	437,518	$	10.6

(1) The net proceeds from sales under the ATM program are used for general partnership purposes, which may include debt repayment and capital expenditures.

May 6, 2016	May 13, 2016	0.60		41.4
August 5, 2016	August 12, 2016	0.60		41.4
				$	178.4

On October 19, 2017,we declared a distribution of $0.60 per limited partner unit to be paid on November 14, 2017, to unitholders of record on November 7, 2017 with respect to the third quarter of 2017.

Preferred Unit Holders. We are required to make quarterly distributions to our preferred unitholders. During the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, we issued 4,724,030 and 4,311,143 Preferred Units to our preferred unitholders in lieu of paying cash distributions of $43.1 million and $39.3 million, respectively. On October 19, 2017, the board of directors of our general partner authorized a cash distribution to our preferred unitholders of approximately $15.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 in lieu of issuing additional preferred units, and beginning with the quarter ending December 31, 2017, we will be required to make all future quarterly distributions to our preferred unitholders in cash.

Crestwood Midstream

During the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, Crestwood Midstream paid cash distributions of $119.5 million and $185.0 million to Crestwood Equity.

Non-Controlling Partners

Crestwood Niobrara issued a preferred interest to a subsidiary of General Electric Capital Corporation and GE Structured Finance, Inc. (collectively, GE) in conjunction with the acquisition of its investment in Jackalope, which is reflected as non-controlling interest in our consolidated financial statements. During the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017, net income attributable to non-controlling partners was approximately $6.4 million and $18.8 million. During the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, net income attributable to non-controlling partners was approximately $6.1 million and $18.0 million. During both the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, Crestwood Niobrara paid cash distributions of $11.4 million to GE. In October 2017, Crestwood Niobrara paid a cash distribution of $3.8 million to GE for the quarter ended September 30, 2017.

Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

We are periodically involved in litigation proceedings. If we determine that a negative outcome is probable and the amount of loss is reasonably estimable, then we accrue the estimated amount. The results of litigation proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. We could incur judgments, enter into settlements or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of certain matters, and such developments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or cash flows in the period in which the amounts are paid and/or accrued. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, both CEQP and CMLP had less

26

than $0.1 million accrued for outstanding legal matters. Based on currently available information, we believe it is remote that future costs related to known contingent liability exposures for which we can estimate will exceed current accruals by an amount that would have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. As we learn new facts concerning contingencies, we reassess our position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures.

Any loss estimates are inherently subjective, based on currently available information, and are subject to management's judgment and various assumptions. Due to the inherently subjective nature of these estimates and the uncertainty and unpredictability surrounding the outcome of legal proceedings, actual results may differ materially from any amounts that have been accrued.

Regulatory Compliance

In the ordinary course of our business, we are subject to various laws and regulations. In the opinion of our management, compliance with current laws and regulations will not have a material effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Environmental Compliance

Our operations are subject to stringent and complex laws and regulations pertaining to worker health, safety, and the environment. We are subject to laws and regulations at the federal, state, regional and local levels that relate to air and water quality, hazardous and solid waste management and disposal and other environmental matters. The cost of planning, designing, constructing and operating our facilities must incorporate compliance with environmental laws and regulations and safety standards. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may trigger a variety of administrative, civil and potentially criminal enforcement measures.

During 2014, we experienced three releases totaling approximately 28,000 barrels of produced water on our Arrow water gathering system located on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in North Dakota. We immediately notified the National Response Center, the Three Affiliated Tribes and numerous other regulatory authorities, and thereafter contained and cleaned up the releases completely and placed the impacted segments of these water lines back into service. In May 2015, we experienced a release of approximately 5,200 barrels of produced water on our Arrow water gathering system, immediately notified numerous regulatory authorities and other third parties, and thereafter contained and cleaned up the releases. 

In October 2014, we received data requests from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) related to the 2014 water releases and we responded to the requests during the first half of 2015.  In April 2015, the EPA issued a Notice of Potential Violation (NOPV) under the Clean Water Act relating to the largest of the 2014 water releases. We responded to the NOPV in May 2015, and in April 2017, we entered into an Administrative Order on Consent (the Order) with the EPA. The Order requires us to continue to remediate and monitor the impacted area for no less than four years unless all goals of the Order are satisfied earlier. The Order does not preclude the EPA from seeking to impose fines and penalties as a result of the water releases.

On March 3, 2015, we received a grand jury subpoena from the United States Attorney’s Office in Bismarck, North Dakota, seeking documents and information relating to the largest of the three 2014 water releases. We provided the requested information during the second quarter of 2015 and key employees were interviewed by the United States’ Attorney in December 2015. On September 13, 2017, we received a notice from the United States Department of Justice that it completed the investigation with no charges being filed against us. In August 2015, we received a notice of violation from the Three Affiliated Tribes' Environmental Division related to our 2014 produced water releases on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation. The notice of violation imposes fines and requests reimbursements exceeding $1.1 million; however, the notice of violation was stayed on September 15, 2015, upon our posting of a performance bond for the amount contemplated by the notice and pending the outcome of ongoing settlement discussions with the regulatory agencies asserting jurisdiction over the 2014 produced water releases.

We will continue our remediation efforts to ensure the impacted lands are restored to their prior state. We believe these releases are insurable events under our policies, and we have notified our carriers of these events. We have not recorded an insurance receivable as of September 30, 2017.

27

At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our accrual of approximately $2.7 million and $2.1 million is based on our undiscounted estimate of amounts we will spend on compliance with environmental and other regulations, and any associated fines or penalties. We estimate that our potential liability for reasonably possible outcomes related to our environmental exposures (including the Arrow water releases described above) could range from approximately $2.7 million to $4.2 million at September 30, 2017.

Self-Insurance

We utilize third-party insurance subject to varying retention levels of self-insurance, which management considers prudent. Such self-insurance relates to losses and liabilities primarily associated with medical claims, workers' compensation claims and general, product, vehicle and environmental liability. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, CEQP's self-insurance reserves were $15.8 million and $15.6 million. We estimate that $10.6 million of this balance will be paid subsequent to September 30, 2018. As such, CEQP has classified $10.6 million in other long-term liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2017. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, CMLP's self insurance reserves were $12.9 million and $12.2 million. CMLP estimates that $8.0 million of this balance will be paid subsequent to September 30, 2018. As such, CMLP has classified $8.0 million in other long-term liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2017.

Guarantees and Indemnifications. We are involved in various joint ventures that sometimes require financial and performance guarantees. In a financial guarantee, we are obligated to make payments if the guaranteed party fails to make payments under, or violates the terms of, the financial arrangement. In a performance guarantee, we provide assurance that the guaranteed party will execute on the terms of the contract. If they do not, we are required to perform on their behalf. We also periodically provide indemnification arrangements related to assets or businesses we have sold. For a further description of our guarantees associated with our joint ventures, see Note 4, and for a further description of our guarantees associated with our assets or businesses we have sold, see our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our potential exposure under guarantee and indemnification arrangements can range from a specified amount to an unlimited dollar amount, depending on the nature of the claim, specificity as to duration, and the particular transaction. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we have no amounts accrued for these guarantees.

Note 11 – Related Party Transactions

Crestwood Holdings indirectly owns both CEQP's and CMLP's general partner. The affiliates of Crestwood Holdings and its owners are considered CEQP's and CMLP's related parties, including Sabine Oil and Gas LLC (Sabine) and Arsenal Resources. CEQP and CMLP enter into transactions with their affiliates within the ordinary course of business, including gas gathering and processing services under long-term contracts, product purchases and various operating agreements.

Note 12 – Segments

Financial Information

We have three operating and reportable segments: (i) gathering and processing operations; (ii) storage and transportation operations; and (iii) marketing, supply and logistics operations. Our corporate operations include all general and administrative expenses that are not allocated to our reportable segments. We assess the performance of our operating segments based on EBITDA, which is defined as income before income taxes, plus debt-related costs (interest and debt expense, net and gain (loss) on modification/extinguishment of debt) and depreciation, amortization and accretion expense.

Note 13 – Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

Crestwood Midstream is a holding company (Parent) and owns no operating assets and has no significant operations independent of its subsidiaries. Obligations under Crestwood Midstream's senior notes and its credit facility are jointly and severally guaranteed by substantially all of its subsidiaries, except for Crestwood Infrastructure Holdings LLC, Crestwood Niobrara, Crestwood Pipeline and Storage Northeast LLC (Crestwood Northeast), PRBIC and Tres Holdings and their respective subsidiaries (collectively, Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries). Crestwood Midstream Finance Corp., the co-issuer of its senior notes, is Crestwood Midstream's 100% owned subsidiary and has no material assets, operations, revenues or cash flows other than those related to its service as co-issuer of the Crestwood Midstream senior notes.

The tables below present condensed consolidating financial statements for Crestwood Midstream as Parent on a stand-alone, unconsolidated basis, and Crestwood Midstream's combined guarantor and combined non-guarantor subsidiaries as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, and for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016.  The financial information may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations, cash flows or financial position had the subsidiaries operated as independent entities.

The condensed consolidating financial statements for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 include reclassifications that were made to conform to the current year presentation, none of which impacted previously reported net income (loss) or partners’ capital. In particular, the condensed consolidating statement of operations was modified to consider the impact of net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling partners in subsidiaries in arriving at equity in net income (loss) of subsidiaries in the parent and eliminations columns of those statements.

Note 14– Subsequent Event

In October 2017, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with an affiliate of Kissner Group Holdings LP to sell 100% of our equity interests in US Salt, LLC (US Salt) for approximately $225 million. US Salt is a solution mining and salt production company located on the shores of Seneca Lake near Watkins Glen in Schuyler County, New York. US Salt is included in our marketing, supply and logistics segment. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement (including customary closing conditions and purchase price adjustments), we expect to close the transaction during the fourth quarter of 2017. The impact of this transaction has not been reflected in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Our Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying footnotes and Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

This report, including information included or incorporated by reference herein, contains forward-looking statements concerning the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of our company and its subsidiaries. These forward-looking statements include:

• statements that are not historical in nature, including, but not limited to: (i) our belief that anticipated cash from operations, cash distributions from entities that we control, and borrowing capacity under our credit facility will be sufficient to meet our anticipated liquidity needs for the foreseeable future; and (ii) our belief that we do not have material potential liability in connection with legal proceedings that would have a significant financial impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows; and

• statements preceded by, followed by or that contain forward-looking terminology including the words “believe,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend” or the negation thereof, or similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to, among others, the following factors:

• our ability to successfully implement our business plan for our assets and operations;

• governmental legislation and regulations;

• industry factors that influence the supply of and demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs;

• industry factors that influence the demand for services in the markets (particularly unconventional shale plays) in which we provide services;

• weather conditions;

• the availability of crude oil, natural gas and NGLs, and the price of those commodities, to consumers relative to the price of alternative and competing fuels;

• economic conditions;

• costs or difficulties related to the integration of our existing businesses and acquisitions;

• environmental claims;

• operating hazards and other risks incidental to the provision of midstream services, including gathering, compressing, treating, processing, fractionating, transporting and storing energy products (i.e., crude oil, NGLs and natural gas) and related products (i.e., produced water);

• interest rates;

• the price and availability of debt and equity financing; and

• the ability to sell or monetize assets in the current market, to reduce indebtedness or for other general partnership purposes.

For additional factors that could cause actual results to be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements, see Part I, Item IA. Risk Factors of our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Outlook and Trends

Our business objective is to create long-term value for our unitholders. We expect to create long-term value by consistently generating stable operating margin and improved cash flows from operations by prudently financing our investments, maximizing throughput on our assets, and effectively controlling our operating and administrative costs. Our business strategy depends, in part, on our ability to provide increased services to our customers at competitive fees, including opportunities to expand our services resulting from expansions, organic growth projects and acquisitions that can be financed appropriately.

We have positioned the Company to generate consistent results in a low commodity price environment without sacrificing revenue upside. For example, many of our G&P assets are supported by long-term, core acreage dedications in shale plays that are economic to varying degrees based upon natural gas, NGL and crude oil prices, the availability of infrastructure to flow production to market, and the operational and financial condition of our diverse customer base. We believe the diversity of our asset portfolio, the risk and cost sharing nature of our strategic joint ventures, the wide range of services provided by our

42

investments, and our extensive customer portfolio collectively position us to be successful in the current market, which has been impacted by prolonged low commodity prices. In addition, a substantial portion of our midstream investments are based on fixed fee, take-or-pay or minimum volume commitment agreements that ensure a minimum level of cash flow regardless of actual commodity prices or volumetric throughput.

For the remainder of 2017 and beyond, we will continue to execute on our plan to better position the Company to emerge from this challenging market environment as a stronger, better capitalized company that can sustainably resume growing its distributions. We will remain focused on efficiently allocating capital expenditures, eliminating costs (through increased operating efficiencies and cost discipline) and strengthening our balance sheet. We expect to focus on expansion and greenfield opportunities in the Delaware Permian and the Bakken shale as further described in "Segment Highlights" below.

Regulatory Matters

Many aspects of the energy midstream sector, such as crude-by-rail activities and pipeline integrity, have experienced increased regulatory oversight over the past few years. Prior to the 2016 presidential election, we expected the trend of greater regulatory oversight to continue for the foreseeable future, However, the election results and anticipated changes in policy could lessen the degree of regulatory scrutiny we face in the near term.

Segment Highlights

Below is a discussion of events that highlight our core business and financing activities.

Gathering and Processing

Bakken. In the Bakken, we are expanding and upgrading our Arrow system water handling facilities, increasing natural gas capacity on the system, and constructing a 30 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) natural gas processing facility and associated pipelines that we expect to place into service in late 2017. We believe the installation of a gas processing solution on the Arrow system will, among other things, spur greater development activity around the Arrow system, allow us to provide greater flow assurance to our producer customers, and reduce the downstream constraints currently experienced by producers on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation. The anticipated cost of this natural gas processing facility and associated pipeline is approximately $115 million.In conjunction with this project, we are negotiating various amendments and extensions with several of our producer customers, and the impact of these contract negotiations is not expected to have a material impact to our 2017 results of operations.

Delaware Permian. In the Delaware Permian, we have identified gathering and processing and transportation opportunities in and around our existing assets, including our joint ventures. Through our Crestwood Permian joint venture, we are expanding both our processing capacity in the region, which includes the construction of a 200 MMcf/d natural gas processing facility in Orla, Texas, and associated pipelines, as well as our interconnection capacity to accommodate greater takeaway options for residue gas and NGLs. The initial cost of the expansion project is expected to cost approximately $170 million with an in-service date in the second half of 2018. We are also developing a crude oil and condensate storage terminal near Orla, Texas that would offer condensate stabilization, truck loading/unloading options and connections to third party pipelines. In addition, we are developing a produced water gathering, disposal and recycling facility in the Delaware Permian. We continue to believe that we are positioned well to benefit from the continued build-out of this world-class resource.

On June 21, 2017, we contributed to Crestwood Permian 100% of theequity interest of Crestwood New Mexico Pipeline LLC (Crestwood New Mexico), our wholly-owned subsidiary that owns our Delaware Basin assets located in Eddy County, New Mexico. This contribution was treated as a transaction between entities under common control, and accordingly we deconsolidated Crestwood New Mexico and our investment in Crestwood Permian was increased by the historical book value of these assets of approximately $69.4 million. In conjunction with this contribution, First Reserve has agreed to contribute to Crestwood Permian the first $151 million of capital costs required to fund the expansion of the Delaware Basin assets, which includes the Orla processing plant and associated pipelines. In October 2017, CPB Subsidiary Holdings LLC, a wholly-subsidiary of Crestwood Permian, entered into a credit agreement with certain lenders. The five year term credit agreement allows for revolving loans, letters of credit and swingline loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $150 million. Borrowings under the credit agreement will be used to fund expansion projects and for general corporate purposes.

Crestwood Permian Basin has a long-term agreement with SWEPI to construct, own and operate a natural gas gathering system in SWEPI's operated position in the Delaware Permian. SWEPI has dedicated to Crestwood Permian Basin approximately 100,000 acres and gathering rights for SWEPI's gas production across a large acreage position in Loving, Reeves, Ward and Culberson Counties, Texas. The Nautilus gathering system is designed to include 194 miles of low pressure gathering lines, 36

43

miles of high pressure trunklines and centralized compression facilities which are expandable over time as production increases, producing gas gathering capacity of approximately 250 MMcf/d. The initial build-out of the Nautilus gathering system was completed on June 6, 2017 and includes 20 receipt point meters, 60 miles of pipeline, a 24-mile high pressure header system, 10,800 horsepower of compression and a high pressure delivery point. Crestwood Permian Basin provides gathering, dehydration, compression and liquids handling services to SWEPI on a fixed fee basis. In October 2017, Shell Midstream purchased a 50% equity interest in Crestwood Permian Basin for approximately $37.9 million in cash. See Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 4 for additional information regarding Crestwood Permian Basin.

During the first half of 2017, we terminated an agreement with a large producer to develop a three-stream gathering system in Reeves County, Texas. We continue to work with this producer and other producers in the area for the potential development of future expansion projects.

Marketing, Supply and Logistics

During 2017, we commenced an in-depth assessment of our trucking and transportation operations to evaluate the markets in which our trucking and transportation business operates, its operating cost structure, customer service levels and organizational efficiencies. Based on this assessment, we, along with our Board of Directors, determined that our trucking and transportation operations should be realigned, including leadership changes, cost reductions, sizing of our fleet and the implementation of rate and profitability key performance indicators. Certain of these changes were implemented during 2017 and will continue throughout the remainder of the year, and we believe these changes will result in improved profitability for this business. Additionally, management plans to realign our trucking operations service capability to be more coordinated with our NGL, crude and water operations and less reliant on third party transportation services. This commercial realignment should allow us to optimize the use of available capacity and position us to reevaluate our trucking and transportation operations in future periods. We anticipate that these realignment efforts will be completed before the end of 2017, which includes the consolidation and relocation of our three corporate offices into two offices located in Houston and Kansas City.

In October 2017, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with an affiliate of Kissner Group Holdings LP to sell 100% of our equity interests in US Salt, LLC (US Salt) for approximately $225 million. US Salt is a solution mining and salt production company located on the shores of Seneca Lake near Watkins Glen in Schuyler County, New York. We intend to use the proceeds from the divestiture to reduce borrowings under the CMLP credit facility and reinvest in on-going organic growth projects in the Bakken and Delaware Basin discussed above in our Gathering and Processing Segment Highlights. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement (including customary closing conditions and purchase price adjustments), we expect to close the transaction during the fourth quarter of 2017.

Through the execution of the strategic efforts described above, we expect to increase the stability and strength of the Company through a continued challenging and competitive market environment, which will position us to achieve our chief business objective to create long-term value for our unitholders.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our critical accounting estimates are consistent with those described in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

How We Evaluate Our Operations

We evaluate our overall business performance based primarily on EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. We do not utilize depreciation, amortization and accretion expense in our key measures because we focus our performance management on cash flow generation and our assets have long useful lives.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA - We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are widely accepted financial indicators of a company's operational performance and its ability to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures and make distributions. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to our investors because it allows them to use the same performance measure analyzed internally by our management to evaluate the performance of our businesses and investments without regard to the manner in which they are financed or our capital structure. EBITDA is defined as income before income taxes, plus debt-related costs (interest and debt expense, net and gain (loss) on modification/extinguishment of debt) and depreciation, amortization and accretion expense. Adjusted EBITDA considers the adjusted earnings impact of our unconsolidated affiliates by adjusting our equity earnings or losses from our unconsolidated affiliates to reflect our proportionate share (based on the distribution percentage) of their EBITDA, excluding impairments. Adjusted EBITDA also considers the impact of certain significant items, such as unit-based compensation charges, losses on long-lived assets, impairments of goodwill, third party costs incurred related to potential and completed acquisitions, certain environmental remediation costs, the change in fair value

44

of commodity inventory-related derivative contracts, costs associated with our 2017 realignment of our Marketing, Supply and Logistics operations and related consolidation and relocation of our corporate offices, and other transactions identified in a specific reporting period. The change in fair value of commodity inventory-related derivative contracts is considered in determining Adjusted EBITDA given that the timing of recognizing gains and losses on these derivative contracts differs from the recognition of revenue for the related underlying sale of inventory to which these derivatives relate. Changes in the fair value of other derivative contracts is not considered in determining Adjusted EBITDA given the relatively short-term nature of those derivative contracts. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, as they do not include deductions for items such as depreciation, amortization and accretion, interest and income taxes, which are necessary to maintain our business. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating cash flow or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA calculations may vary among entities, so our computation may not be comparable to measures used by other companies.

See our reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in Results of Operations below.

Below is a discussion of the factors that impacted EBITDA by segment for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016.

Gathering and Processing

EBITDA for our gathering and processing segment increased by approximately $5.8 million and $23.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, our gathering and processing segment's revenues increased by approximately $160.2 million and $438.8 million compared to the same periods in 2016, partially offset by an increase in costs of product/services sold of approximately $152.5 million and $417.7 million. These increases were primarily driven by our Arrow operations, which experienced a $176.1 million and $442.3 million increase in revenues and a $166.1 million and $419.7 million increase in costs of product/services sold during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016. The increase in Arrow's revenues and costs was primarily driven by higher average prices on Arrow's agreements under which it purchases and sells crude oil. In addition, our crude, gas and water volumes increased by 31%, 12% and 29%, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, due to the connection of 78 wells on our Arrow system during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to 31 wells during the same period in 2016, and higher initial production rates experienced on those connected wells in 2017 compared to 2016.

Partially offsetting the increase in our gathering and processing segment's revenues and costs from our Arrow operations during the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, were lower revenues and costs of approximately $16.1 million and $11.4 million, respectively, from our Permian operations as a result of the deconsolidation of Crestwood New Mexico in June 2017 due to the contribution of these assets to Crestwood Permian. For a further discussion of this transaction, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 4.

Our gathering and processing segment's operations and maintenance expenses decreased approximately $1.2 million and $4.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016 due to continued cost-reduction efforts undertaken in our operations and the deconsolidation of Crestwood New Mexico.

The comparability of our G&P segment's EBITDA was impacted by an $8.6 million goodwill impairment recorded during the first quarter of 2016 related to our Marcellus operations. For a further discussion of our goodwill impairments recorded during 2016, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 2.

Our gathering and processing segment's EBITDA was also impacted by a decrease in earnings from our unconsolidated affiliates of approximately $1.2 million and $8.8 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016. The decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in revenues at our Jackalope equity investment as a result of the restructuring of its contracts with Chesapeake Energy Corporation (Chesapeake) effective January 1, 2017. Jackalope and Chesapeake replaced the cost-of-service based contract with a fixed-fee gathering and processing contract that includes minimum revenue guarantees for a five to seven year period. Partially offsetting the decrease in equity earnings from our Jackalope equity investment was an increase in equity earnings from our Crestwood Permian equity investment of approximately $2.8 million and $2.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 primarily due to the

49

contribution of Crestwood New Mexico to Crestwood Permian in June 2017, and the Nautilus system coming online in June 2017.

Storage and Transportation

EBITDA for CMLP's storage and transportation segment decreased by approximately $11.1 million and $30.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016. The comparability of our storage and transportation segment's results was impacted by a $32.9 million loss recognized on the deconsolidation of our Northeast storage and transportation assets as a result of the contribution of these assets to Stagecoach Gas in June 2016. The deconsolidation of the Northeast storage and transportation assets resulted in lower revenues and costs of product/services sold of approximately $74.1 million and $4.6 million, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016. We also experienced lower operations and maintenance expenses of approximately $11.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, primarily as a result of the deconsolidation of the Northeast storage and transportation assets.

Our storage and transportation segment's revenues was also impacted by lower revenues of approximately $11.6 million and $31.0 million from our COLT Hub operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in our rail throughput revenues resulting from lower rail loading volumes as a result of two rail loading contracts that expired in late 2016 and the in-service of the Dakota Access Pipeline system.

The comparability of our storage and transportation segment's EBITDA was also impacted by a $13.7 million goodwill impairment recorded during the first quarter of 2016 related to our COLT Hub operations. For a further discussion of our goodwill impairments recorded during 2016, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 2.

Our storage and transportation segment's EBITDA was impacted by an increase in earnings from our unconsolidated affiliates. As discussed above, in June 2016, we deconsolidated our Northeast storage and transportation assets as a result of the Stagecoach Gas transaction and began accounting for our 50% equity interest in Stagecoach Gas under the equity method of accounting. We recognized equity earnings from Stagecoach Gas of approximately $19.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Earnings from our Tres Holdings equity investment increased by approximately $2.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to property tax accruals recorded by Tres Holdings during 2016.

EBITDA for CEQP's storage and transportation segment decreased by approximately $11.6 million and $27.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016. The change in CEQP's storage and transportation segment's EBITDA period over period was due to all the factors as discussed above for CMLP. In addition, in June 2016, the Matagorda County court issued a final judgment related to Tres Palacios' 2012 and 2013 property tax years which resulted in CEQP recording additional net property taxes (including interest and penalties) of approximately $2.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Marketing, Supply and Logistics

EBITDA for our marketing, supply and logistics segment decreased by approximately $23.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, while we experienced an increase in EBITDA of approximately $81.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016. The comparability of our marketing, supply and logistics segment's results was impacted by goodwill impairments of approximately $87.4 million recorded during 2016. For a further discussion of our goodwill impairments recorded during the first quarter of 2016, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 2.

Our supply and logistics operations experienced an increase in revenues of approximately $105.3 million and $302.8 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016, and an increase in costs of product/services sold of approximately $117.8 million and $297.3 million during those same periods. During 2016, we experienced unseasonably warm weather which resulted in lower demand for NGLs compared to 2017. The costs of product/services sold increases include a loss of $24.1 million and $22.6 million on our commodity-based derivative contracts during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and a $2.1 million and $4.1 million gain on commodity-based derivative contracts during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. The loss on our commodity-based derivative contracts during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 resulted from higher average NGL prices during the third quarter of 2017 compared to the prior periods, which resulted in an increase in our liabilities from price risk management activities associated with contracts that provide fixed prices on future sales of our NGL inventory.

50

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, our storage and terminals operations (including our West Coast operations) experienced a $39.0 million and $104.1 million increase in revenues compared to the same periods in 2016 and a $45.1 million and $109.4 million increase in costs of product/services sold during those same periods. These increases were primarily driven by increases in NGL prices during the three months ended September 30, 2017, and the increase in our costs of product/services sold more than offset the increase in our revenues due to decreasing demand from our refinery customers primarily on the West Coast.

Revenues from our crude marketing operations increased by approximately $76.5 million and $172.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016. In addition, we experienced an increase in our costs of product/services sold of approximately $76.0 million and $172.0 million. These increases were driven by higher crude marketing volumes due to increased marketing activity surrounding our crude-related operations.

Our NGL and crude trucking operations continued to experience a decline in demand for their services due to lower supply volumes, increased competition, excess trucking capacity in the marketplace and lower commodity prices during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016, resulting in a $2.8 million and $12.3 million decrease in revenues and a $1.1 million and $5.0 million decrease in costs of product/services sold period over period.

Our marketing, supply and logistics segment's operations and maintenance expenses increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016 primarily due to a $3.1 million property tax refund received during the third quarter of 2016 related to our West Coast operations.

Other EBITDA Results

General and Administrative Expenses. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, our general and administrative expenses increased compared to the same periods in 2016, primarily due to an increase in unit-based compensation charges based on higher average awards outstanding in 2017 compared to 2016 and the impact of performance units granted during 2017 under the Crestwood Equity LTIP. For a further discussion of Crestwood Equity's Long Term Incentive Plan, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 2. In addition, we incurred additional costs during the third quarter of 2017 as a result of the relocation of Crestwood's Houston corporate headquarters.

Items not affecting EBITDA include the following:

Depreciation, Amortization and Accretion Expense. Depreciation, amortization and accretion expense decreased during the nine months September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to the deconsolidation of the Northeast storage and transportation assets in June 2016 and Crestwood New Mexico operations in June 2017.

Interest and Debt Expense, Net. Interest and debt expense, net decreased by approximately $3.3 million and $23.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016, primarily due to the repayments of Crestwood Midstream's 2020 Senior Notes and 2022 Senior Notes.

The following table provides a summary of interest and debt expense (in millions):

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	September 30,				September 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
Credit facility	$	5.5	$	2.9	$	13.3	$	16.0
Senior notes	18.2		22.8		58.3		77.1
Other debt-related costs	1.7		1.9		5.4		5.4
Gross interest and debt expense	25.4		27.6		77.0		98.5
Less: capitalized interest	1.2		0.1		2.2		0.6
Interest and debt expense, net	$	24.2	$	27.5	$	74.8	$	97.9

Loss on Modification/Extinguishment of Debt. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $37.7 million in conjunction with the tender of the remaining principal amounts of Crestwood Midstream's 2020 Senior Notes and 2022 Senior Notes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we

51

recognized a gain of $10 million on the early tender of principal amounts under Crestwood Midstream's 2020 Senior Notes and 2022 Senior Notes. For a further discussion of these repayments, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 7.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

Crestwood Equity is a holding company that derives all of its operating cash flow from its operating subsidiaries.  Our principal sources of liquidity include cash generated by operating activities from our subsidiaries, distributions from our joint ventures, borrowings under the CMLP credit facility, and sales of equity and debt securities. Our operating subsidiaries use cash from their respective operations to fund their operating activities, maintenance and growth capital expenditures, and service their outstanding indebtedness. We believe our liquidity sources and operating cash flows are sufficient to address our future operating, debt service and capital requirements.

We pay quarterly distributions of approximately $15 million to our preferred unitholders. In November 2017, we will pay the distribution related to the quarter ended September 30, 2017 to our preferred unitholders in cash in lieu of issuing additional preferred units, and beginning with the quarter ending December 31, 2017, we will be required to make all future quarterly distributions to our preferred unitholders in cash. We believe our operating cash flows will well exceed our quarterly distributions at the current level and cash distributions to our preferred unitholders.

As described in Segment Highlights - Marketing, Supply and Logistics above, we have entered into an agreement to sell our US Salt operations for approximately $225 million. We intend to use the proceeds from the divestiture to reduce borrowings under the CMLP credit facility and reinvest in on-going organic growth projects in the Bakken and Delaware Basin discussed above in our Gathering and Processing Segment Highlights, and we expect the proceeds from this divestiture will eliminate the need to access the equity capital markets to fund our current 2017 and 2018 capital programs.

As of September 30, 2017, Crestwood Midstream had $548.7 million of available capacity under its credit facility considering the most restrictive debt covenants in its credit agreement. At September 30, 2017, Crestwood Midstream was in compliance with all of its debt covenants applicable to its credit facility and senior notes.

We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Cash Flows

The following table provides a summary of Crestwood Equity's cash flows by category (in millions):

	Nine Months Ended
	September 30,
	2017			2016
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	228.2		$	244.5
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities	(144.3		)	866.8
Net cash used in financing activities	(84.1		)	(1,110.8		)

Operating Activities

Our operating cash flows decreased approximately $16.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to an increase in costs of product/services sold of approximately $964.8 million primarily from our gathering and processing and marketing, supply and logistics segments' operations discussed above, partially offset by a $908.5 million increase in operating revenues from these segments' operations. In addition, we experienced lower operations and maintenance expenses of approximately $16.5 million primarily due to the deconsolidation of our Northeast storage and transportation assets in June 2016. The decrease in our net operating cash flows described above was partially offset by a $18.4 million net cash inflow from working capital primarily resulting from lesser working capital requirements from our NGL and crude trucking operations.

52

Investing Activities

The energy midstream business is capital intensive, requiring significant investments for the acquisition or development of new facilities. We categorize our capital expenditures as either:

• growth capital expenditures, which are made to construct additional assets, expand and upgrade existing systems, or acquire additional assets; or

• maintenance capital expenditures, which are made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets, to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets, extend their useful lives or comply with regulatory requirements.

We anticipate that our growth capital expenditures for the remainder of 2017 will increase the operating efficiencies of our systems and generate meaningful contributions to our results of operations beginning in 2018. We expect to finance our growth and maintenance capital expenditures with a combination of cash generated by our operating subsidiaries, distributions received from our joint ventures and borrowings under the CMLP credit facility.

We have identified additional growth capital project opportunities for each of our reporting segments. Additional commitments or expenditures will be made at our discretion, and any discontinuation of the construction of these projects will likely result in less future cash flows and earnings. The following table summarizes our capital expenditures for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017 (in millions).

Growth capital	$	97.5
Maintenance capital	16.1
Other (1)	20.8
Purchases of property, plant and equipment	134.4
Reimbursements of property, plant and equipment	(18.8		)
Net	$	115.6

(1) Represents gross purchases of property, plant and equipment that are reimbursable by third parties.

Financing Activities

Significant items impacting our financing activities during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, included the following:

Equity Transactions

• Beginning in 2016, we declared a decrease in distributions paid per limited partner unit from $1.375 to $0.60. This

reduction resulted in a decrease in distributions paid to partners of approximately $53.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016;

• $10.6 million of net proceeds from the issuances of CEQP common units during the nine months ended September 30, 2017; and

• Increase in taxes paid for unit-based compensation vesting of approximately $4.5 million primarily due to higher vesting of unit-based compensation awards during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016.

Debt Transactions

• During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, our debt-related transactions resulted in net proceeds of approximately $49.6 million compared to net repayments of $918.8 million during the same period in 2016. This variance is primarily due to repayments of amounts outstanding under our Credit Facility with the proceeds from our Stagecoach Gas transaction and repayments of Crestwood Midstream's 2020 Senior Notes and 2022 Senior Notes. For a further discussion of these transactions, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Notes 4 and 7.

53

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our interest rate risk and commodity price and market risks are discussed in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K and there have been no material changes in those exposures from December 31, 2016 to September 30, 2017.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2017, Crestwood Equity and Crestwood Midstream carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of their respective management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of their General Partners, as to the effectiveness, design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Crestwood Equity and Crestwood Midstream maintain controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in their respective reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC, and that information is accumulated and communicated to their respective management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of their General Partners, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Such management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of their General Partners, do not expect that the disclosure controls and procedures or the internal controls will prevent and/or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Crestwood Equity's and Crestwood Midstream's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of their General Partners concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2017.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to Crestwood Equity's or Crestwood Midstream's internal control over financial reporting during the three months endedSeptember 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect Crestwood Equity's or Crestwood Midstream's internal control over financial reporting.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and include the accounts of all consolidated subsidiaries after the elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions. In management’s opinion, all necessary adjustments to fairly present our results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented have been made and all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Significant Accounting Policies

There were no material changes in our significant accounting policies from those described in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Below is an update of our accounting policies related to Goodwill and Unit-Based Compensation, and a description of Crestwood Equity's Long Term Incentive Plan.

Goodwill. The goodwill impairments recorded during the first quarter of 2016 primarily resulted from increasing the discount rates utilized in determining the fair value of the reporting units considering the significant, sustained decrease in the market price of our common units and the continued decrease in commodity prices and its impact on the midstream industry and our customers during that period. We utilized the income approach to determine the fair value of our reporting units given the limited availability of comparable market-based transactions as of March 31, 2016, and we utilized discount rates ranging from 10% to 19% in applying the income approach to determine the fair value of our reporting units with goodwill as of March 31, 2016.

The following table summarizes goodwill impairments of certain of our reporting units recorded during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 (in millions):

Gathering and Processing
Marcellus	$	8.6
Storage and Transportation
COLT	13.7
Marketing, Supply and Logistics
Supply and Logistics	65.5
Storage and Terminals	14.1
Trucking	7.8
Total	$	109.7

Unit-Based Compensation. Effective January 1, 2017, we adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including the classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and the presentation on the statement of cash flows. The adoption of this accounting standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Crestwood Equity Long Term Incentive Plan. As of September 30, 2017, Crestwood Equity had 404,847 performance units outstanding under the Crestwood Equity Partners LP Long Term Incentive Plan (Crestwood LTIP) that were issued in 2017. The performance units are designed to provide an incentive for continuous employment to certain key employees. The vesting of performance units is subject to the attainment of certain performance and market goals over a three-year period, and entitle a participant to receive common units of Crestwood Equity without payment of an exercise price upon vesting. As of September 30, 2017, we had total unamortized compensation expense of approximately $7.6 million related to these performance units, which we expect will be amortized during the next three years. We recognized compensation expense of approximately $0.9 million and $2.9 million under the Crestwood LTIP related to these performance units during the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017, which is included in general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statements of operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted

As of September 30, 2017, the following accounting standards had not yet been adopted by us:

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance. We anticipate utilizing the modified retrospective method to adopt the provisions of this standard effective January 1, 2018 and are currently applying the provisions of the standard to our aggregated listing of gathering and processing, storage and transportation, and marketing, supply and logistics revenue contracts that involve revenue generating activities that occur after January 1, 2018. We are also in the process of implementing appropriate changes to our processes, systems and controls to support the accounting and disclosure requirements of the new standard. We are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements, and currently believe that the standard will require us to begin classifying certain capital expenditure reimbursements received from our customers as deferred revenue rather than as reductions of property, plant and equipment in our consolidated financial statements.  We currently anticipate that approximately $60 million to $70 million of these net reimbursements will be reclassified to net deferred revenue on January 1, 2018, which would result in a $15 million to $25 million cumulative effect of accounting change being recorded as an increase to partners' capital on January 1, 2018.  In addition, we currently believe that the standard will require us to begin classifying service revenues on certain of our gathering and processing contracts as reductions of costs of product sold prospectively beginning January 1, 2018.  We continue to evaluate the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements, especially as it relates to non-cash consideration received under certain of our gathering, processing, storage and transportation contracts.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which revises the accounting for leases by requiring certain leases to be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, and requiring companies to disclose additional information about their leasing arrangements. We expect to adopt the provisions of this standard effective January 1, 2019 and are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which clarifies how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. We expect to adopt the provisions of this standard effective January 1, 2018 and are currently evaluating the impact that this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which changes the annual quantitative goodwill impairment test to eliminate the current two step method and replace it with a single test to determine if goodwill is impaired and the amount of any impairment. We are required to adopt the provisions of this standard by January 1, 2020 and are currently evaluating the impact that this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements.

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

Crestwood Permian Basin Holdings LLC

In October 2016, Crestwood Infrastructure, our wholly-owned subsidiary, and an affiliate of First Reserve formed a joint venture, Crestwood Permian Basin Holdings LLC (Crestwood Permian), to fund and own the Nautilus gathering system (described below) and other potential investments in the Delaware Permian. As part of this transaction, we transferred to the Crestwood Permian joint venture 100% of the equity interests of Crestwood Permian Basin LLC (Crestwood Permian Basin), which owns the Nautilus gathering system. We manage and account for our 50% ownership interest in Crestwood Permian, which is a VIE, under the equity method of accounting as we exercise significant influence, but do not control Crestwood Permian and we are not its primary beneficiary due to First Reserve’s rights to exercise control over the entity.

Crestwood Permian Basin has a long-term agreement with SWEPI LP (SWEPI), a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell plc, to construct, own and operate a natural gas gathering system (the Nautilus gathering system) in SWEPI’s operated position in the Delaware Permian. SWEPI has dedicated to Crestwood Permian Basin approximately 100,000 acres and gathering rights for SWEPI’s gas production across a large acreage position in Loving, Reeves and Ward Counties, Texas. The Nautilus gathering system is designed to include 194 miles of low pressure gathering lines, 36 miles of high pressure trunklines and centralized compression facilities, which are expandable over time as production increases, providing gas gathering capacity of approximately 250 MMcf/d. The initial build-out of the Nautilus gathering system was completed on June 6, 2017 and includes 20 receipt point meters, 60 miles of pipeline, a 24-mile high pressure header system, 10,800 horsepower of compression and a high pressure delivery point. Crestwood Permian Basin provides gathering, dehydration, compression and liquids handling services to SWEPI on a fixed fee basis. In October 2017, Shell Midstream Partners L.P. (Shell Midstream), a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell plc, purchased a 50% equity interest in Crestwood Permian Basin for approximately $37.9 million in cash.

CEQP issued a guarantee in conjunction with the Crestwood Permian Basin gas gathering agreement with SWEPI described above, under which CEQP has agreed to fund 100% of the costs to build the Nautilus gathering system (which is currently estimated to cost $180 million, of which approximately $72.7 million has been spent through September 30, 2017) if Crestwood Permian fails to do so. We do not believe this guarantee is probable of resulting in future losses based on our assessment of the nature of the guarantee, the financial condition of the guaranteed party and the period of time that the guarantee has been outstanding, and as a result, we have not recorded a liability on our balance sheet at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

On June 21, 2017, we contributed to Crestwood Permian 100% of theequity interest of Crestwood New Mexico Pipeline LLC (Crestwood New Mexico), our wholly-owned subsidiary that owns our Delaware Basin assets located in Eddy County, New Mexico. This contribution was treated as a transaction between entities under common control (because of our relationship with First Reserve), and accordingly we deconsolidated Crestwood New Mexico and our investment in Crestwood Permian was increased by the historical book value of these assets of approximately $69.4 million. In conjunction with this contribution, First Reserve has agreed to contribute to Crestwood Permian the first $151 million of capital cost required to fund the expansion of the Delaware Basin assets, which includes a new processing plant located in Orla, Texas and associated pipelines (Orla processing plant).

Pursuant to Crestwood Permian's limited liability company agreement, we will receive 100% of Crestwood New Mexico's available cash (as defined in the limited liability company agreement) until the earlier of the Orla processing plant in-service date or June 30, 2018, at which time the distributions will be based on the members respective ownership percentages. Because our ownership and distribution percentages will differ during this period, equity earnings from Crestwood Permian is determined using the Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (HLBV) method. Under the HLBV method, a calculation is prepared at each balance sheet date to determine the amount that we would receive if Crestwood Permian were to liquidate all of its assets, as valued in accordance with GAAP, and distribute that cash to the members. The difference between the calculated liquidation distribution amounts at the beginning and the end of the reporting period, after adjusting for capital contributions and distributions, is our share of the earnings or losses from the equity investment for the period, which approximates how earnings are allocated under the terms of the limited liability company agreement.

Stagecoach Gas Services LLC. In June 2016, we contributed to Stagecoach Gas Services LLC (Stagecoach Gas) the entities owning the Northeast storage and transportation assets. Additionally, Con Edison Gas Pipeline Storage Northeast, LLC (CEGP), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Consolidated Edison, Inc., contributed $945 million to Stagecoach Gas in exchange for a 50% equity interest in Stagecoach Gas, and Stagecoach Gas distributed to us the cash proceeds received (net of approximately $3 million of cash transferred to the joint venture) from CEGP. Pursuant to the Stagecoach Gas limited liability company agreement, we may be required to make payments of up to $57 million to CEGP after December 31, 2020 if certain criteria are not met by Stagecoach Gas by December 31, 2020, including achieving certain performance targets on growth capital projects. We do not believe that this provision is probable of resulting in future payments to CEGP, and as a result we have not recorded a liability on our balance sheet as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

We deconsolidated the Northeast storage and transportation assets as a result of this transaction discussed above and began accounting for our 50% equity interest in Stagecoach under the equity method of accounting. We recognized a loss on the deconsolidation of the Northeast storage and transportation assets of approximately $32.9 million.

Risk Management - Notional Amounts and Terms of Companys Derivative Financial Instruments [Abstract]

Risk Management

Risk Management

We are exposed to certain market risks related to our ongoing business operations. These risks include exposure to changing commodity prices. We utilize derivative instruments to manage our exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices, which is discussed below. Additional information related to our derivatives is discussed in Note 6.

Commodity Derivative Instruments and Price Risk Management

Risk Management Activities

We sell NGLs and crude oil to energy related businesses and may use a variety of financial and other instruments including forward contracts involving physical delivery of NGLs, heating oil and crude oil. We periodically enter into offsetting positions to economically hedge against the exposure our customer contracts create. Certain of these contracts and positions are derivative instruments. We do not designate any of our commodity-based derivatives as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. Our commodity-based derivatives are reflected at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets, and changes in the fair value of these derivatives that impact the consolidated statements of operations are reflected in costs of product/services sold. During the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017, the impact to our consolidated statements of operations related to our commodity-based derivatives reflected in costs of product/services sold was a loss of $24.1 million and $22.6 million. During the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, the impact to the statement of operations related to our commodity-based derivatives reflected in costs of product/services sold was a gain of $2.1 million and $4.1 million. We attempt to balance our contractual portfolio in terms of notional amounts and timing of performance and delivery obligations. This balance in the contractual portfolio significantly reduces the volatility in costs of product/services sold related to these instruments.

Commodity Price and Credit Risk

Notional Amounts and Terms

The notional amounts and terms of our derivative financial instruments include the following:

	September 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
	Fixed Price Payor	Fixed Price Receiver	Fixed Price Payor	Fixed Price Receiver
Propane, crude and heating oil (MMBbls)	19.7	22.7	13.1	15.1
Natural gas (MMBTU’s)	0.9	0.6	—	—

Notional amounts reflect the volume of transactions, but do not represent the amounts exchanged by the parties to the financial instruments. Accordingly, notional amounts do not reflect our monetary exposure to market or credit risks.

All contracts subject to price risk had a maturity of 35 months or less; however, 87% of the contracted volumes will be delivered or settled within 12 months.

Credit Risk

Inherent in our contractual portfolio are certain credit risks. Credit risk is the risk of loss from nonperformance by suppliers, customers or financial counterparties to a contract. We take an active role in managing credit risk and have established control procedures, which are reviewed on an ongoing basis. We attempt to minimize credit risk exposure through credit policies and periodic monitoring procedures as well as through customer deposits, letters of credit and entering into netting agreements that allow for offsetting counterparty receivable and payable balances for certain financial transactions, as deemed appropriate. The counterparties associated with our price risk management activities are primarily energy marketers and propane retailers, resellers and dealers.

Certain of our derivative instruments have credit limits that require us to post collateral. The amount of collateral required to be posted is a function of the net liability position of the derivative as well as our established credit limit with the respective counterparty. If our credit rating were to change, the counterparties could require us to post additional collateral. The amount of additional collateral that would be required to be posted would vary depending on the extent of change in our credit rating as well as the requirements of the individual counterparty. The aggregate fair value of all commodity derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $30.1 million and $13.9 million. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we posted less than $0.1 million of collateral for our commodity derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features. In addition, at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had a New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) related net derivative asset position of $30.7 million and $14.3 million, for which we posted $25.2 million and $4.2 million of cash collateral in the normal course of business. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we also received collateral of $5.7 million and $4.3 million in the normal course of business. All collateral amounts have been netted against the asset or liability with the respective counterparty and are reflected in our consolidated balance sheets as assets and liabilities from price risk management activities.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value, Assets, Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity Measured on Recurring Basis [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

The accounting standard for fair value measurement establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

• Level 1—Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, listed equities and US government treasury securities.

• Level 2—Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as over the counter (OTC) forwards, options and physical exchanges.

• Level 3—Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value based on the short-term nature of these instruments.

Credit Facility

The fair value of the amounts outstanding under our CMLP credit facility approximates the carrying amounts as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, due primarily to the variable nature of the interest rate of the instrument, which is considered a Level 2 fair value measurement.

Senior Notes

We estimate the fair value of our senior notes primarily based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issuances (representing a Level 2 fair value measurement). The following table reflects the carrying value (reduced for deferred financing costs associated with the respective notes) and fair value of our senior notes (in millions):

	September 30, 2017				December 31, 2016
	Carrying  Amount		Fair Value		Carrying  Amount		Fair Value
2020 Senior Notes	$	—	$	—	$	340.6	$	350.2
2022 Senior Notes	$	—	$	—	$	429.3	$	447.3
2023 Senior Notes	$	691.7	$	724.7	$	690.6	$	722.6
2025 Senior Notes	$	492.1	$	511.5	$	—	$	—

Financial Assets and Liabilities

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we held certain assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, which include our derivative instruments related to heating oil, crude oil, and NGLs. Our derivative instruments consist of forwards, swaps, futures, physical exchanges and options.

Our derivative instruments that are traded on the NYMEX have been categorized as Level 1.

Our derivative instruments also include OTC contracts, which are not traded on a public exchange. The fair values of these derivative instruments are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. These instruments have been categorized as Level 2.

Our OTC options are valued based on the Black Scholes option pricing model that considers time value and volatility of the underlying commodity. The inputs utilized in the model are based on publicly available information as well as broker quotes. These options have been categorized as Level 2.

Our financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

The following tables set forth by level within the fair value hierarchy, our financial instruments that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 (in millions):

Credit Facility

At September 30, 2017, Crestwood Midstream had $548.7 million of available capacity under its credit facility considering the most restrictive debt covenants in its credit agreement. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, Crestwood Midstream's outstanding standby letters of credit were $63.6 million and $64.0 million. Borrowings under the credit facility accrue interest at prime or Eurodollar based rates plus applicable spreads, which resulted in interest rates between 3.49% and 5.50% at September 30, 2017 and 3.21% and 5.25% at December 31, 2016. The weighted-average interest rate as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was 3.50% and 3.23%.

Crestwood Midstream is required under its credit agreement to maintain a net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio (as defined in its credit agreement) of not more than 5.50 to 1.0, a consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense ratio (as defined in its credit agreement) of not less than 2.50 to 1.0, and a senior secured leverage ratio (as defined in its credit agreement) of not more than 3.75 to 1.0. At September 30, 2017, the net debt to consolidated EBITDA was approximately 4.13 to 1.0, the consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense was approximately 4.08 to 1.0, and the senior secured leverage ratio was 1.11 to 1.0.

The CMLP credit facility allows Crestwood Midstream to increase its available borrowings under the facility by $350.0 million, subject to lender approval and the satisfaction of certain other conditions, as described in the credit agreement.

Senior Notes

Repayments. During the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017, Crestwood Midstream paid approximately $457.8 million to purchase, redeem and/or cancel all of the principal amount outstanding under the 2022 Senior Notes and approximately $349.9 million to redeem all of the principal amount outstanding under the 2020 Senior Notes. Crestwood Midstream funded the repayments with a combination of net proceeds from the issuance of the 2025 Senior Notes described below and borrowings under the credit facility. In conjunction with these note repayments, Crestwood Midstream (i) recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $37.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 (including the write off of approximately $6.8 million of deferred financing costs associated with the 2022 Senior Notes); and (ii) paid $5.1 million and $1.0 million of accrued interest on the 2020 Senior Notes and 2022 Senior Notes, respectively, on the date they were tendered.

In June 2016, Crestwood Midstream paid approximately $312.9 million to purchase and cancel approximately $161.2 million and $163.6 million of the principal amounts outstanding under its 2020 Senior Notes and 2022 Senior Notes, respectively, utilizing a portion of the proceeds received from Stagecoach Gas, as further discussed in Note 4. Crestwood Midstream recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt of approximately $10 million in conjunction with the early tender of these notes.

2025 Senior Notes. In March 2017, Crestwood Midstream issued $500 million of 5.75% unsecured senior notes due 2025 (the 2025 Senior Notes) in a private offering. The 2025 Senior Notes will mature on April 1, 2025, and interest is payable semiannually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning October 1, 2017. The net proceeds from this offering of approximately $492 million were used to repay amounts outstanding under the 2020 Senior Notes and the 2022 Senior Notes.

In May 2017, Crestwood Midstream filed a registration statement with the SEC under which it offered to exchange new senior notes for any and all outstanding 2025 Senior Notes. Crestwood Midstream completed the exchange offer in July 2017. The terms of the exchange notes are substantially identical to the terms of the 2025 Senior Notes, except that the exchange notes are freely tradable.

At September 30, 2017, Crestwood Midstream was in compliance with all of its debt covenants applicable to the CMLP credit facility and its senior notes.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Limited Partner Unit

Earnings Per Limited Partner Unit

Our net income (loss) attributable to Crestwood Equity Partners is allocated to the subordinated and limited partner unitholders based on their ownership percentage after giving effect to net income attributable to the Preferred Units. We calculate basic net income per limited partner unit using the two-class method. Diluted net income per limited partner unit is computed using the treasury stock method, which considers the impact to net income attributable to Crestwood Equity Partners and limited partner units from the potential issuance of limited partner units.

We exclude potentially dilutive securities from the determination of diluted earnings per unit (as well as their related income statement impacts) when their impact on net income attributable to Crestwood Equity Partners per limited partner unit is anti-dilutive. During the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017, we excluded a weighted-average of 7,125,744 and 6,968,210 common units (representing preferred units), a weighted-average of 7,277,340 common units in both periods (representing Crestwood Niobrara's preferred units), and a weighted-average of 438,789 common units in both periods (representing subordinated units). During the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we excluded a weighted-average of 6,502,907 and 6,358,626 common units (representing preferred units), and a weighted-average of 8,669,633 common units in both periods (representing Crestwood Niobrara's preferred units) and a weighted-average of 438,789 common units in both periods (representing subordinated units). See Note 9 for additional information regarding the potential conversion of our preferred units and Crestwood Niobrara's preferred units to common units.

Preferred Units

Subject to certain conditions, the holders of the Preferred Units have the right to convert their Preferred Units into (i) common units on a 1-for-10 basis or (ii) a number of common units determined pursuant to a conversion ratio set forth in Crestwood Equity's partnership agreement upon the occurrence of certain events, such as a change in control. The Preferred Units have voting rights that are identical to the voting rights of the common units and will vote with the common units as a single class, with each Preferred Unit entitled to one vote for each common unit into which such Preferred Unit is convertible, except that the Preferred Units are entitled to vote as a separate class on any matter on which all unitholders are entitled to vote that adversely affects the rights, powers, privileges or preferences of the Preferred Units in relation to Crestwood Equity's other securities outstanding.

Common Units

On August 4, 2017, we entered into an equity distribution agreement with certain financial institutions (each, a Manager), under which we may offer and sell from time to time through one or more of the Managers, common units having an aggregate offering price of up to $250 million. Common units sold pursuant to this at-the-market (ATM) equity distribution program are issued under a registration statement that became effective on April 12, 2017. We will pay the Managers an aggregate fee of up to 2.0% (which totaled $0.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017) of the gross sales price per common unit sold under our ATM equity distribution program. The table below shows the units issued and the net proceeds from the issuances:

Issuance Dates	Common Units	Net Proceeds(1) (in millions)

During the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, we issued 4,724,030 and 4,311,143 Preferred Units to our preferred unitholders in lieu of paying cash distributions of $43.1 million and $39.3 million, respectively. On October 19, 2017, the board of directors of our general partner authorized a cash distribution to our preferred unitholders of approximately $15.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 in lieu of issuing additional preferred units, and beginning with the quarter ending December 31, 2017, we will be required to make all future quarterly distributions to our preferred unitholders in cash.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

We are periodically involved in litigation proceedings. If we determine that a negative outcome is probable and the amount of loss is reasonably estimable, then we accrue the estimated amount. The results of litigation proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. We could incur judgments, enter into settlements or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of certain matters, and such developments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or cash flows in the period in which the amounts are paid and/or accrued. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, both CEQP and CMLP had less than $0.1 million accrued for outstanding legal matters. Based on currently available information, we believe it is remote that future costs related to known contingent liability exposures for which we can estimate will exceed current accruals by an amount that would have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. As we learn new facts concerning contingencies, we reassess our position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures.

Any loss estimates are inherently subjective, based on currently available information, and are subject to management's judgment and various assumptions. Due to the inherently subjective nature of these estimates and the uncertainty and unpredictability surrounding the outcome of legal proceedings, actual results may differ materially from any amounts that have been accrued.

Regulatory Compliance

In the ordinary course of our business, we are subject to various laws and regulations. In the opinion of our management, compliance with current laws and regulations will not have a material effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Environmental Compliance

Our operations are subject to stringent and complex laws and regulations pertaining to worker health, safety, and the environment. We are subject to laws and regulations at the federal, state, regional and local levels that relate to air and water quality, hazardous and solid waste management and disposal and other environmental matters. The cost of planning, designing, constructing and operating our facilities must incorporate compliance with environmental laws and regulations and safety standards. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may trigger a variety of administrative, civil and potentially criminal enforcement measures.

During 2014, we experienced three releases totaling approximately 28,000 barrels of produced water on our Arrow water gathering system located on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in North Dakota. We immediately notified the National Response Center, the Three Affiliated Tribes and numerous other regulatory authorities, and thereafter contained and cleaned up the releases completely and placed the impacted segments of these water lines back into service. In May 2015, we experienced a release of approximately 5,200 barrels of produced water on our Arrow water gathering system, immediately notified numerous regulatory authorities and other third parties, and thereafter contained and cleaned up the releases. 

In October 2014, we received data requests from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) related to the 2014 water releases and we responded to the requests during the first half of 2015.  In April 2015, the EPA issued a Notice of Potential Violation (NOPV) under the Clean Water Act relating to the largest of the 2014 water releases. We responded to the NOPV in May 2015, and in April 2017, we entered into an Administrative Order on Consent (the Order) with the EPA. The Order requires us to continue to remediate and monitor the impacted area for no less than four years unless all goals of the Order are satisfied earlier. The Order does not preclude the EPA from seeking to impose fines and penalties as a result of the water releases.

On March 3, 2015, we received a grand jury subpoena from the United States Attorney’s Office in Bismarck, North Dakota, seeking documents and information relating to the largest of the three 2014 water releases. We provided the requested information during the second quarter of 2015 and key employees were interviewed by the United States’ Attorney in December 2015. On September 13, 2017, we received a notice from the United States Department of Justice that it completed the investigation with no charges being filed against us. In August 2015, we received a notice of violation from the Three Affiliated Tribes' Environmental Division related to our 2014 produced water releases on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation. The notice of violation imposes fines and requests reimbursements exceeding $1.1 million; however, the notice of violation was stayed on September 15, 2015, upon our posting of a performance bond for the amount contemplated by the notice and pending the outcome of ongoing settlement discussions with the regulatory agencies asserting jurisdiction over the 2014 produced water releases.

We will continue our remediation efforts to ensure the impacted lands are restored to their prior state. We believe these releases are insurable events under our policies, and we have notified our carriers of these events. We have not recorded an insurance receivable as of September 30, 2017.

At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our accrual of approximately $2.7 million and $2.1 million is based on our undiscounted estimate of amounts we will spend on compliance with environmental and other regulations, and any associated fines or penalties. We estimate that our potential liability for reasonably possible outcomes related to our environmental exposures (including the Arrow water releases described above) could range from approximately $2.7 million to $4.2 million at September 30, 2017.

Self-Insurance

We utilize third-party insurance subject to varying retention levels of self-insurance, which management considers prudent. Such self-insurance relates to losses and liabilities primarily associated with medical claims, workers' compensation claims and general, product, vehicle and environmental liability. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, CEQP's self-insurance reserves were $15.8 million and $15.6 million. We estimate that $10.6 million of this balance will be paid subsequent to September 30, 2018. As such, CEQP has classified $10.6 million in other long-term liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2017. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, CMLP's self insurance reserves were $12.9 million and $12.2 million. CMLP estimates that $8.0 million of this balance will be paid subsequent to September 30, 2018. As such, CMLP has classified $8.0 million in other long-term liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2017.

Guarantees and Indemnifications. We are involved in various joint ventures that sometimes require financial and performance guarantees. In a financial guarantee, we are obligated to make payments if the guaranteed party fails to make payments under, or violates the terms of, the financial arrangement. In a performance guarantee, we provide assurance that the guaranteed party will execute on the terms of the contract. If they do not, we are required to perform on their behalf. We also periodically provide indemnification arrangements related to assets or businesses we have sold. For a further description of our guarantees associated with our joint ventures, see Note 4, and for a further description of our guarantees associated with our assets or businesses we have sold, see our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our potential exposure under guarantee and indemnification arrangements can range from a specified amount to an unlimited dollar amount, depending on the nature of the claim, specificity as to duration, and the particular transaction. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we have no amounts accrued for these guarantees.

Segments

Financial Information

We have three operating and reportable segments: (i) gathering and processing operations; (ii) storage and transportation operations; and (iii) marketing, supply and logistics operations. Our corporate operations include all general and administrative expenses that are not allocated to our reportable segments. We assess the performance of our operating segments based on EBITDA, which is defined as income before income taxes, plus debt-related costs (interest and debt expense, net and gain (loss) on modification/extinguishment of debt) and depreciation, amortization and accretion expense.

Note 14– Subsequent Event

In October 2017, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with an affiliate of Kissner Group Holdings LP to sell 100% of our equity interests in US Salt, LLC (US Salt) for approximately $225 million. US Salt is a solution mining and salt production company located on the shores of Seneca Lake near Watkins Glen in Schuyler County, New York. US Salt is included in our marketing, supply and logistics segment. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement (including customary closing conditions and purchase price adjustments), we expect to close the transaction during the fourth quarter of 2017. The impact of this transaction has not been reflected in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.

There were no material changes in our significant accounting policies from those described in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

New Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted

New Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted

As of September 30, 2017, the following accounting standards had not yet been adopted by us:

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance. We anticipate utilizing the modified retrospective method to adopt the provisions of this standard effective January 1, 2018 and are currently applying the provisions of the standard to our aggregated listing of gathering and processing, storage and transportation, and marketing, supply and logistics revenue contracts that involve revenue generating activities that occur after January 1, 2018. We are also in the process of implementing appropriate changes to our processes, systems and controls to support the accounting and disclosure requirements of the new standard. We are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements, and currently believe that the standard will require us to begin classifying certain capital expenditure reimbursements received from our customers as deferred revenue rather than as reductions of property, plant and equipment in our consolidated financial statements.  We currently anticipate that approximately $60 million to $70 million of these net reimbursements will be reclassified to net deferred revenue on January 1, 2018, which would result in a $15 million to $25 million cumulative effect of accounting change being recorded as an increase to partners' capital on January 1, 2018.  In addition, we currently believe that the standard will require us to begin classifying service revenues on certain of our gathering and processing contracts as reductions of costs of product sold prospectively beginning January 1, 2018.  We continue to evaluate the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements, especially as it relates to non-cash consideration received under certain of our gathering, processing, storage and transportation contracts.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which revises the accounting for leases by requiring certain leases to be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, and requiring companies to disclose additional information about their leasing arrangements. We expect to adopt the provisions of this standard effective January 1, 2019 and are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which clarifies how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. We expect to adopt the provisions of this standard effective January 1, 2018 and are currently evaluating the impact that this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which changes the annual quantitative goodwill impairment test to eliminate the current two step method and replace it with a single test to determine if goodwill is impaired and the amount of any impairment. We are required to adopt the provisions of this standard by January 1, 2020 and are currently evaluating the impact that this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements.

Total	$	1,198.5	$	1,115.4		$	11.5	$	13.4	$	29.2	$	26.1

(1) As of September 30, 2017, our equity in the underlying net assets of Stagecoach Gas exceeded our investment balance by approximately $51.4 million. This excess amount is entirely attributable to goodwill and, as such, is not subject to amortization. Our Stagecoach Gas investment is included in our storage and transportation segment.

(2) As of September 30, 2017, our equity in the underlying net assets of Jackalope Gas Gathering Services, L.L.C. (Jackalope) exceeded our investment balance by approximately $0.8 million. We amortize this amount over 20 years, which represents the life of Jackalope’s gathering agreement with Chesapeake Energy Corporation (Chesapeake), and we reflect the amortization as an increase in our earnings from unconsolidated affiliates. Our Jackalope investment is included in our gathering and processing segment.

(3) As of September 30, 2017, our equity in the underlying net assets of Tres Palacios Holdings LLC (Tres Holdings) exceeded our investment balance by approximately $26.9 million. We amortize this amount over the life of the Tres Palacios Gas Storage LLC (Tres Palacios) sublease agreement, and we reflect the amortization as an increase in our earnings from unconsolidated affiliates. Our Tres Holdings investment is included in our storage and transportation segment.

(4) As of September 30, 2017, our equity in the underlying net assets of Powder River Basin Industrial Complex, LLC (PRBIC) exceeded our investment balance by approximately $6.5 million. We amortize a portion of this amount over the life of PRBIC's property, plant and equipment and its agreement with Chesapeake, and we reflect the amortization as an increase in our earnings from unconsolidated affiliates. During 2015, we recorded an impairment of our PRBIC equity investment as further discussed in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For the year ended December 31, 2016, PRBIC recorded a $41.3 million impairment of its goodwill and long-lived assets and as a result, we adjusted our excess basis in PRBIC by approximately $8.3 million to reflect our proportionate share of the fair value of PRBIC's net assets. Our PRBIC investment is included in our storage and transportation segment.

(5) As of September 30, 2017, our equity in the underlying net assets of Crestwood Permian exceeded our investment balance by approximately $22.0 million, which is entirely attributable to goodwill and, as such, is not subject to amortization. Our Crestwood Permian investment is included in our gathering and processing segment

and $1.2 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016.
