Abstract:
A state must submit an annual certification to assume responsibility for regulating intrastate pipelines, and certain records must be maintained to demonstrate that the state is ensuring satisfactory compliance with the pipeline safety regulations. PHMSA uses that information to evaluate a state's eligibility for Federal grants. As a result of this final rule, PHMSA will require states who receive Federal grant funding to have adequate damage prevention plans and associated records in place.
