PHMSA Pipeline Safety Information Collection Activities

On May 13, 2016, PHMSA published a notice in the Federal Register to invite comments on proposed revisions to these three forms:

  • PHMSA F 7100.1 Incident Report-Gas Distribution System;
  • PHMSA F 7100.2 Incident Report-Natural and Other Gas Transmission and Gathering Pipeline Systems; and
  • PHMSA F 7100.3 Incident Report-Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Facilities, and the instructions associated with the Forms.

PHMSA also invited comments on PHMSA F 7000- 1 Accident Report-Hazardous Liquid Pipeline Systems and its associated instruction. On December 27, 2016, PHMSA published its response to the specific comments received and announced that the revised information collection will be submitted to OMB for approval. Comments regarding the burden estimate, including suggestions for reducing the burden, can be sent to OMB via email to OIRA-submission@omb.eop.gov on or before January 26, 2017.
