WASHINGTON, July 1 -- Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration has issued a proposed rule called: Pipeline Safety: Harmonize Class Location Change Pressure Test Requirements With Subpart J Pressure Test Requirements.
The proposed rule was published in the Federal Register on July 1 by Benjamin D. Kochman, Acting Administrator.
Summary: PHMSA is proposing to revise the regulation for confirming or revising the maximum allowable operating pressure following a class location change to clarify that owners and operators of gas pipeline facilities can use to satisfy that requirement certain pressure tests authorized by subpart J of part 192 for small segments of pipe.
