Subpart L: Operations
In this section, we transition to Subpart L under the RIN 2 pipeline regulations, focusing on continuing surveillance after extreme weather events or natural disasters. New requirements mandate that pipeline operators assess potential damage following events like seismic activity, hurricanes, or flooding. Operators must quickly survey their pipelines, either immediately or through planned assessments, and take necessary actions to remediate any identified damage. This ensures ongoing pipeline integrity and compliance with updated PHMSA regulations.
