The Georgia Public Service Commission updated their gas pipeline regulations found in Section 515 Chapter 9 Rule 1 Safe Installation and Operation of Natural Gas Transmission Pipelines. This update defines a pipeline incident to be the same as that defined in 49 CFR 191.3. Operators are required to provide a telephonic notice to the Commission’s Pipeline Safety Staff for incidents and a written report within 30 days of the incident describing the relevant facts regarding the incident as well as information on any investigation conducted by the operator. These updates are effective May 2, 2013.
