PHMSA Risk Ranking Index Modeling (RRIM) Webinar

 On Wednesday, July 24 from 1pm to 2pm Eastern, PHMSA will be holding an informational webinar to provide an overview of their Risk Ranking Index Model (RRIM), the primary tool utilized by PHMSA on an annual basis to establish inspection schedules for pipeline systems throughout the country.  The webinar is being held due to interest expressed by industry members during last year’s information exchange with PHMSA HQ and Region leadership.  The goal of the webinar is to provide greater transparency and better understanding as to how decisions are made with respect to the prioritization of pipeline systems, type of inspections and frequency of inspections.  During the webinar PHMSA will walk through the various criteria that factor into the overall risk score and are highlighted in the RRIM Summary that can be accessed here.  The webinar will be held virtually via Microsoft Teams and can be accessed via the following link.
