Item 8.01 Other Events.

Summit Midstream Partners, LP ("SMLP" or the “Partnership”) is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to update certain items in the Partnership's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2017 (the "First Quarter 2017 Form 10-Q").

 

We evaluate our business operations each reporting period to determine whether any of our gathering system operating segments in which we internally report financial information are considered significant and would require us to separately disclose certain segment financial information in our external reporting. As a result of our evaluation for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2017, we determined that both the Summit Utica natural gas gathering system and the Ohio Gathering natural gas gathering system, each previously reported within the Utica Shale reportable segment, were and are expected to continue to be significant operating segments. As such, we modified our current segments such that the Utica Shale reportable segment includes the Summit Utica gathering system and the Ohio Gathering reportable segment includes our ownership interest in OGC and OCC. The following items of the First Quarter 2017 Form 10-Q have been recast to reflect the change in reportable segments:

 

 

These items replace the same items filed in the Partnership’s First Quarter 2017 Form 10-Q as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC) on May 5, 2017. We have not otherwise updated for activities or events occurring after the date these items were originally presented.

 

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with the other information included (but not replaced as described above) in the First Quarter 2017 Form 10-Q. More current information is contained in the Partnership’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2017 and the Partnership’s other filings with the SEC.
