PHMSA Publishes Pipeline Safety NPRM

PHMSA is soliciting public comments on the NPRM. Comments may be submitted via the Federal eRulemaking Portal (www.Regulations.gov; Docket # PHMSA-2013-0163). Comments need to be submitted by September 8, 2015.


NOTE: This is not the NPRM that I reported had been approved by OMB on Monday. There is no record of this NPRM having been submitted to OMB for approval.
