SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Section 1320.8(d), Title 5, Code of
Federal Regulations, requires PHMSA to
provide interested members of the
public and affected agencies an
opportunity to comment on information
collection and recordkeeping requests.
This notice identifies a revised
information collection request that
PHMSA will be submitting to OMB for
approval. The information collected
from hazardous liquid operators is an
important tool for identifying safety
trends in the hazardous liquid pipeline
industry.
In a Federal Register Notice on April
23, 2013, with a 60-day comment
period, PHMSA published its proposed
changes to the hazardous liquid
operators’ accident report and its
proposal to include the incorporation by
reference of American Petroleum
Institute (API) API 1130 (the industry
standard on leak detection) which
provides information collection and
maintenance guidance on many factors
such as measurement capabilities,
communications reliability, pipeline
operating condition, and product type.
During this response period, PHMSA
received one joint comment from API
and the Association of Oil Pipelines
(AOPL).
This 30-day notice responds to the
comments, which may be found at
http://www.regulations.gov, at docket
number PHMSA–2013–0061.
The following is a summary of the
joint comments to PHMSA regarding the
proposed changes to Form PHMSA F
7000–1 ACCIDENT REPORT—
HAZARDOUS LIQUID PIPELINE
SYSTEMS.
A. Instructions for Volume Spilled (Part
A9) and Volume Recovered (Part A11)
Comment: API/AOPL opposes
PHMSA’s proposal to include all
product exiting the pipeline system in
both the Volume Spilled and Volume
Recovered categories. API/AOPL
requests that volume exiting a system
during a controlled event not be
reported.

PO 00000

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

PHMSA Response: PHMSA does not
consider any product exiting the system
at the failure location to be done in a
controlled manner. We are proposing to
revise the instructions to exempt
product removed from the system at
locations remote from the failure site
from both the Volume Spilled and
Volume Recovered categories. However,
we continue to propose that all product
exiting the system at the failure site,
regardless of the degree of control
attainable by the operator, be reported
in both Volume Spilled and Volume
Recovered. Limiting the Volume Spilled
to product exiting the system at the
failure site provides the most accurate
characterization of the consequences of
the accident. The difference between
Volume Spilled and Volume Recovered
provides the most accurate
characterization of the environmental
consequences of the accident. This
change does not penalize operators for
withdrawing product in a controlled
manner at locations remote from the
failure site and provides incentive to
move product away from the failure site
whenever possible.
Comment: API/AOPL recommends
‘‘facility’’ be replaced with ‘‘system’’ in
the instructions for Volume Spilled and
Volume Recovered.
PHMSA Response: PHMSA has
implemented this recommendation.
B. Instructions for Time Sequence (Part
A18)
Comment: API/AOPL opposes the
proposed change to the instructions
regarding the use of the phrase ‘‘when
the operator became aware of the
accident’’ to describe the earliest date
and time an operator identifies a
pipeline failure. API/AOPL states that
‘‘awareness of the accident’’ is open to
wide interpretation and suggests that
‘‘awareness’’ be replaced with
‘‘discovery’’, which is used in other
PHMSA regulations. API/AOPL notes
that PHMSA’s regulations for safetyrelated conditions characterize
‘‘discovery’’ as ‘‘when an operator’s
representative has adequate information
from which to conclude the probable
existence.’’
PHMSA Response: We do not agree
that the proposal to use ‘‘adequate’’ and
‘‘probable’’ in the definition of
‘‘discovery’’ provides additional clarity.
Part A18 of the form simply requires the
operator to report the earliest date/time
the operator identified the failure and
the date/time the operator arrived on
site. If PHMSA were to implement API/
AOPL’s recommendation, these date/
times would be identical and PHMSA
would gain no knowledge of operator
response time.
