Why Are Pipelines Important? Benefits and Risks

Benefits and Risks of Pipelines Benefits Safe, secure, cost efficient transportation Fuel for: Motor vehicles, ships and airplanes Heating, water heat, cooking, drying Commercial – Bakery, dry cleaner, generators Industrial – glass and aluminum manufacturing Agricultural – corn dryer Power plants Military – largest single buyer in the world Feedstock for food products, pharmaceuticals, plastics and resins Risks Life Safety (health effects, injury, fatality) Environmental Property (repairable/non- repairable) Cultural/historical Economic disruption or cessation Loss of confidence in government/operator Fear

Pipeline Failures – Gas Transmission

Natural gas transmission pipeline fire in San Bruno, CA.

Pipeline Failures - Natural Gas Distribution Natural gas distribution explosion, Chantilly, VA.

Pipeline Failures – Hazardous Liquid Virginia Hazardous Liquid: YTD

Risk Factors: Influence the likelihood of pipeline failure (frequency) Development’s effect on pipeline (e.g. cause stray current, run-off) Excavation activity/practices/laws Intensity of natural force activity Terrorism/vandalism Physical condition of the pipe in its environment (programmatically addressed by pipeline safety regulations – integrity management, corrosion control, patrolling, surveying, construction and installation specifications, physical barriers to aboveground structures) Operator personnel (OQ, drug testing)

Risk factors: Influence the consequence of pipeline failure (magnitude) Distance of structure from centerline of pipeline. Fire endurance of the structures Ability for persons to move away from the impact area (e.g. prison, hospital) Preparedness of emergency responders Size of the fire or explosion Pipeline failures resulting from natural force damage Local conditions – topography, waterways, drinking water sources, environmental areas, highly concentrated population, vegetation, structures. Criticality of the supply (e.g. airport, power plant, corn dryer). Product transported Time it takes to shut in the pipeline. Pipeline characteristics: pipeline size, pipeline strength, condition of the pipeline, operating pressure, potential spill volume, valve spacing

Choosing Better Options

About the PIPA Report Created by a stakeholder group of ~130 participants representing a wide range of interests, organizations, and viewpoints on pipelines and community planning. Scope: Existing Gas Transmission & Hazardous Liquid Pipelines Stakeholders: Local Government, Property Developer/Owner, Pipeline Operator, Real Estate Commission Scenarios: Baseline (implement in preparation for future) and New Development (Implement when use/development is proposed) 43 Recommended Practices

Obtain Transmission Pipeline Mapping Data BL01 Obtain Transmission Pipeline Mapping Data

National Pipeline Mapping System Contains Pipelines, operator name/contact information Product transported Diameter (optional) Accuracy (+/-500 feet) Password Needed Does not contain: Pump/compressor stations Valves Capacity Operating Pressures Limited to Federal, State, and Local Government Officials

NPMS Public Viewer – Open Access

Incorporate Pipeline Maps on Internal GIS Maps

Local governments should define a “consultation zone” to provide a mechanism for communication between property developers/owners and operators of nearby transmission pipelines when new land uses and property developments are being planned. Absent site-specific information: Natural Gas Pipelines = 660’-1,000’ Hazardous Liquid Pipelines = 1,000’-1,500’ BL05 – Consultation Zone Consultation Zone Pipeline Distance defined by local ordinance

ND11 – Placing New Parking Lots Reduce Transmission Pipeline Risk through Design and Location of New Parking Lots and Parking Structures

…Evacuation routes should…have a safe means of egress with exits located where they would not be made inaccessible by the impacts of a pipeline incident… ND22 Reduce Transmission Pipeline Risk through Design and Location of New Places of Mass Public Assembly

… cul-de-sac streets should not be designed crossing a transmission pipeline as the only route of ingress or egress… ND18 Reduce Transmission Pipeline Risk in New Development for Residential, Mixed-Use, and Commercial Land Use

Consider: Locate structures away from ROW Design alternate escape routes Require more stringent fire protection e.g. automatic sprinklers, water screens, air handling/ventilation systems) and fire endurance (e.g. non-combustible construction, window limitation) Avoid interference with pipeline operations and maintenance Allow access for emergency response Model fire, explosion, or toxic release impacts ND17 Reduce Transmission Pipeline Risk in New Development for Residential, Mixed-Use, and Commercial Land Use

Examples: Pre-excavation meeting on site with the operator and contractor “Pot hole“ to verify utility locates or mark-outs Operator onsite during all excavation BL 15 Enhance Damage Prevention Practices near High-Priority Subsurface Facilities

Transmission pipeline operators should have procedures and established contacts with local enforcement personnel in order to act appropriately to halt dangerous excavation activities that may damage their pipelines and potentially cause an immediate threat to life or property BL 16 Halt Dangerous Excavation Activities Near Transmission Pipelines

ND24 Temporary Markers for Construction Install Temporary Markers on Edge of Transmission Pipeline Right-of-Way Prior to Construction Adjacent to Right-of-Way

ND 23 Consider Site Emergency Response Plans in Land Use Development Access to shutoff valves Access for emergency response personnel/equipment Location/capacity of water supply/fire hydrants Potential ICS, triage, and staging areas …review of existing ROW can illustrate the benefit of land planning practices & identify locations for enhance emergency preparedness…

Existing Local Plan Use and Development Practices near Transmission Pipeline in Virginia In 1995, the County amended its comprehensive plan, zoning, and subdivision ordinances: To strictly limit allowable land uses within gas and liquid pipeline easements To prohibit the use of pipeline easements in calculating minimum lot sizes, thus encouraging the placement of buildings farther away from pipelines; To require developers to identify the location of pipelines and easements on all major site plans, generalized development plans, and commercial building permit applications; and To require developers to forward copies of their proposed site and subdivision plans to affected pipeline operators for review and comment. Over a two-year period following a 1993 hazardous liquid spill, Virginia’s Fairfax County undertook a comprehensive review of its land use regulations to see what local steps could be taken to reduce the risk of future pipeline spills. The resulting actions were chronicled in 1996 by James Pates, City Attorney, Fredericksburg, VA in the report, “Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind: What Every Local Government Should Know About Pipeline Safety”. The report states: Download the report at: s/psf_doc23.pdf s/psf_doc23.pdf

Next Steps for Local Governments Locate pipelines in you jurisdiction (NPMS) Read the PIPA Report & Tools Assess your communities level of risk tolerance for land use/development near pipelines Put a plan in place to address your community’s needs using PIPA recommended practices Contact the pipeline operators in your area to inform them of the actions
