The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) Spill Control Association of America 2014 Annual Meeting and Conference March 20, 2014 Cynthia Quarterman PHMSA Administrator

DOT LEADERSHIP Anthony Foxx Secretary of Transportation Victor Mendez Acting Deputy Secretary PHMSA Leadership: Cynthia Quarterman Administrator Timothy Butters Deputy Administrator Stephen Domotor Assistant Administrator/ Chief Safety Officer Jeffrey Wiese Associate Administrator for Pipeline Safety Dr. Magdy El-Sibaie Associate Administrator for Hazmat Safety

Our Mission To protect people and the environment from the risks of hazardous materials transportation.

What We Do Investigate Research Fund Educate Regulate

Pipelines in the United States Over 2.6 million miles of hazardous liquid and gas pipelines.

Pipeline Oil Spill Response Plans Implementing the Oil Pollution Act of Improving our plan approval process. Posting the plans publicly.

Hazmat Transportation in the United States Over 1 million shipments of hazmat.

Our Stakeholders

Unconventional Oil and Gas

US Unconventional Energy Production

Changing Pipeline Industry Increased domestic production. Population expansion. New practices and technologies:  Higher pressure gathering lines  High density of wells  Increasing pipeline diameters 11

Recent Hazardous Liquid Pipeline Incidents Marshall, MI Yellowstone River, MT Mayflower, AK Tioga, ND

Safety of Hazardous Liquid Pipelines Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM):  High Consequence Areas (HCAs)  Leak Detection  Repair Criteria  Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC)  Piggability  Gathering Lines  Gravity Lines 13

Rail Crude Oil Transport Increasing transportation Declining rail accidents Increasing use of unit trains

Rise in Crude Oil Shipments by Rail

Recent Bakken Crude Oil Derailments Plaster Rock, NB Casselton, ND Aliceville, AL Lac-Megantic, QE

Operation Safe Delivery Comprehensive approach to address risks: – Prevention – Mitigation – Response

Operation Safe Delivery: Rulemaking September 6, 2013: (ANPRM) issued. December 5, 2013: 150,000+ comments. March 2014: NPRM being drafted.

Operation Safe Delivery: Nonregulatory Actions August 2013: FRA issued an emergency order. August 2013: PHMSA and FRA issued a safety advisory. August 2013: PHMSA and FRA held a Hazmat workshop. August 2013: Held emergency RSAC meeting. November 2013: PHMSA and FRA issued a safety advisory. January 2014: PHMSA issued a safety alert. February 2014: Secretary of Transportation issued an Emergency Order.

Operation Safe Delivery: Enhanced Enforcement Operation Classification Coordination with other Entities Notice of Proposed Violations (NOPV)

Call to Action In January 2014, Secretary Foxx issued a Call to Action. Met with petroleum and railroads industry. 30-day proposed changes focused on:  Prevention  Mitigation  Response Identified immediate actions in February Continuously engaging with stakeholders.

Industry Actions Association of American Railroads:  Rail Inspection and Maintenance Improvements  HazMat Routing  Speed Restrictions  Braking Enhancements  Emergency Response Assessment and Training American Petroleum Institute:  Development of Classification Best Practices  Sharing Crude Oil Testing Data

Operation Safe Delivery: Next Steps Consider other regulatory actions. Continue to work with stakeholders. Continue Operation Classification. Enhance outreach efforts.
