| COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Crimson Legal Proceedings
As a transporter of crude oil, the Company is subject to various environmental regulations that could subject the Company to future monetary obligations. Crimson has received notices of violations and potential fines under various federal, state and local provisions relating to the discharge of materials into the environment or protection of the environment. Management believes that if any one or more of these environmental proceedings were decided against Crimson, it would not be material to the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Additionally, the Company maintains insurance coverage for environmental liabilities in amounts that management believes are appropriate and customary for the Company's business.
The Company is also subject to various other claims and legal proceedings covering a wide range of matters that arose in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, all such matters are without merit or are of such kind, or involve such amounts, as would not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
Restructuring Costs
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company approved a restructuring plan associated with changes in management structure and the corresponding reorganization of Crimson management. The Company recognized restructuring expense of $324 thousand and $2.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. These costs are recorded in transportation and distribution and in general and administrative within the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company does not anticipate additional restructuring-related costs over the remainder of 2023 related to this plan. As of June 30, 2023, the remaining liability related to these restructuring costs was $815 thousand, which is recorded in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Long Term Incentive Awards
On March 15, 2023, the Company awarded $2.1 million in "Cash Units" under the Omnibus Plan (as defined below) 2023 Annual Long Term Incentive Awards. Each Cash Unit represents the right to receive $1 at a future date with such amount not tied to the Company’s operating performance or stock price. The Cash Units vest over three years, with 1/3 vesting on March 15th each year. The expense related to these awards was $198 thousand for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
California Bonds Indemnification
The Company maintains certain agreements for indemnity and surety bonds with various California regulatory bodies. The total annual premium paid for the bonds currently outstanding is approximately $148 thousand, recorded in general and administrative expense.
