Response to Secretary’s Call to Action

NAPSR The National Association of Pipeline Safety Representatives (NAPSR) is a non-profit organization of state pipeline safety directors, managers, inspectors and technical personnel who serve to support, encourage, develop and enhance pipeline safety. The Association was founded on December 2, 1982.

Pipeline Safety Oversight NAPSR members are responsible for: - 96% of 49 C.F.R. Part 192 jurisdictional intrastate gas facilities - 32% of 49 C.F.R. Part 195 jurisdictional intrastate hazardous liquid and carbon-dioxide facilities - Act as interstate agents for PHMSA - 9 states for gas - 6 states for liquid - State inspectors comprise over 75% of the federal-state pipeline safety workforce.

NAPSR’s Response to the “Call to Action” Investigated jurisdictional accidents. Where appropriate, took enforcement action and required remedial measures; Prepared a compendium of state pipeline safety requirements and initiatives: – Over 1,200 specific safety actions (Rules, Regulations, Legislation, etc.) in 22 categories adopted by various states to help enhance pipeline safety. – These actions are in addition to the federal Pipeline Safety Code. – These actions are taken to address specific pipeline safety needs of unique conditions in those states. The compendium has been distributed to every pipeline safety manager and the State Commission.

NAPSR’s Response to the “Call to Action” (cont.) Strengthen relationship between NAPSR and NARUC – Pipeline safety is now an agenda topic at every NARUC Gas Committee meeting – NARUC has formed a Pipeline Safety Task Force – Pipeline safety is now an agenda topic for the training provided to each new Commissioner at NARUC

Pursuit of Effective Damage Prevention Programs Seven States have passed enhanced laws, and 5 are working on improving their laws Help with outreach regarding 811 and safe digging practices Serve on CGA Committees

Partnering with PHMSA and Industry to Advance Safety Conducting inspections regarding DIMP, Public Awareness, Control Room/Human Fatigue Management Co-sponsor and participate in workshops, meetings, and more than 20 other task groups Serve on Advisory Boards (APGA’s SIF) and several Industry Standards Committees (GPTC)

Partnering with PHMSA and Industry to Advance Safety Working with PHMSA to determine the most effective enforcement process to ensure compliance Working to enhance data quality to better the data- driven inspection process
