1 Pipeline Safety Program Identify & Reduce Risks Before They Cause Harm Northwest Area Committee Meeting March 10, 2011 David Lykken Director of Pipeline Safety

2 Utilities & Transportation Commission Pipeline Safety Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Geographic Information Systems (GIS)

3 In 2000, following the Bellingham pipeline incident, the WA State Legislature passed the Pipeline Safety Act (Chapter RCW). This legislation required the Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC), Pipeline Safety Section to develop and implement a comprehensive pipeline safety program for gas and hazardous liquid pipelines including mapping of pipeline locations. The legislation specifically mandates that the UTC collect information from the pipeline operators “Sufficient to meet the needs of the First Responders, and to provide pipeline information and maps to local governments”. Establishment of the Utilities and Transportation Commission Pipeline GIS

4 UTC GIS Functions Developing mobile applications to increase the efficiency of pipeline inspections Developing pipeline map atlases for first responders Collecting data from pipeline operators & GIS data from other sources Increasing the accuracy of pipeline GIS data using GPS technology and ortho-photography The UTC Pipeline Safety GIS Program is : *** Not a substitute for Call Before You Dig. *** Mapping transmission pipelines, natural gas pipelines over 250psig, and hazardous liquid pipelines

5 Samples of Commission GIS Use New construction overview map The UTC Pipeline Safety Section uses the pipeline GIS for additional tasks such as: Mapping proposed new construction projects Environmental Analysis Public Awareness Community outreach City annexation map HCA map Reroutes Inspection tracking Incident Investigation

6 Landslide maps can give indications of historically active areas and their proximity to existing or proposed pipelines.

7 Areas of current landslide locations can be easily visualized in relationship to pipelines and the area’s location within the watershed shown to help decision makers mitigate hazards.

8 Bellevue Pipeline Incident Pipeline Safety GIS supports incident investigations and helps decision makers quickly understand unique characteristics of a remote location

9 Pipeline Map Atlas Map books can quickly inform a user where oil and gas pipelines are located, what’s around the pipeline, and help support more informed initial assessments for planning purposes or during a pipeline incident. Pipeline Map Atlas Specifications 8 ½ x 11” Rugged plastic cover with waterproof map sheets Areas divided by counties Distributed to fire districts and local governments near pipelines

10 NPMS : National Pipeline Mapping System NPMS Website: Provides general locations and selected attributes of major natural gas transmission lines, hazardous liquid pipelines, and liquefied natural gas facilities in the United States including offshore. The NPMS is a repository for pipeline GIS data from pipeline operators U.S. Department of Transportation PHMSA/OPS GIS Program

11 U.S. Department of Transportation PHMSA/OPS GIS Program Users can only view one county at a time for security reasons. A Web-based program that provides up-to-date information on pipeline locations and their proximity to safety sensitive areas. GIS data can be viewed but not downloaded.

20 Pipeline Reportable Significant Incidents Rates Actual Number of Incidents Key Performance Measure Analysis To what goal is this measure linked? Increase Public Safety Our goal is zero reportable incidents each year in Washington. How does the measure support the goal? Compares our incident rate with the overall national rate, and with the rate of the four other states which have similar jurisdictions and operations. Compare and explain target versus the actual measure. Washington’s experience is equal to or better than the comparison incident rates. Indicates equal or better pipeline safety environment. What needs to be done as a result of this analysis? We need to continue monitoring, assessing the highest risk situations leading to incidents and work with operators and communities to identify and reduce the seriousness of precursor events.

22 Internal Measure: Reportable Event Call Causes ( ) Key Performance Measure Analysis To what goal is this measure linked? Increase Public Safety How does the measure support the goal? In order to reduce risk and increase public safety, data must be used to focus our limited resources on the causes of unexpected natural gas and hazardous liquid releases. Discussion: Excavation third party damage is the leading contributor to unexpected natural gas and hazardous liquid releases. What needs to be done as a result of this analysis? Continue to monitor and verify causes of event calls. Increase accuracy of our recordkeeping and monitoring. Long term develop plans of action to minimize causes of the highest risk events. * from Pipeline Database
