Title: Pipeline Safety: Protecting Unusually Sensitive Areas From Rural Onshore Hazardous Liquid Gathering Lines and Low-Stress Lines
Abstract: This rulemaking would establish limited safety rules for rural onshore hazardous liquid gathering pipelines and low stress pipelines that are within a defined buffer of an unusually sensitive area. These areas include drinking water and ecological resource areas, which are particularly vulnerable to a pipeline release. The safety requirements would address the most common threats to the integrity of these pipelines.
