Changes in Carrying Amount of Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction.  Goodwill is not amortized; however, it is subject to annual impairment testing at the end of each fiscal year, and more frequently, if circumstances indicate it is probable that the fair value of goodwill is below its carrying amount.  The following table presents changes in the carrying amount of goodwill during the periods presented:

(1)   The total carrying amount of goodwill at January 1, 2010 is net of $1.3 million of accumulated impairment charges incurred prior to 2010. No goodwill impairment charges were recorded during the three years ended December 31, 2012.
(2)   Amount presented for Petrochemical & Refined Products Services includes $5.5 million of goodwill that was part of the drop down of trucking assets from EPCO (see Note 15).
(3)   The goodwill we recorded in connection with a marine business acquisition completed in November 2010 was subsequently reduced in May 2011 due to a purchase price adjustment.
(4)   In December 2011, we disposed of our ownership interests in Crystal (see Note 8), including related goodwill.
