Susan Olenchuk, Jeff WinmillDecember 7, 2009
PHMSA has adopted new regulations requiring that gas and hazardous pipeline owners develop and implement written control room management procedures designed to reduce risks associated with human factors, such as fatigue and to ensure that the management of activities in pipeline control rooms contribute to safe pipeline operations. The new regulations apply if the pipeline has a controller in a control room who monitors and controls all or part of a pipeline facility through a SCADA system. Control room management procedures must be implemented by February 1, 2012. The new regulations do not apply to owners and operators of liquefied natural gas facilities.
