Joint Workshop on New Spill Reporting Forms for the Hazardous Liquids Pipeline Industry

Both the industry’s Pipeline Performance Tracking System (PPTS) reporting forms and the PHMSA 7000-1 have undergone significant changes. There is new reporting in the areas of integrity and control room management in the 7000-1, as well as enhanced reporting for some failures, and expanded cause detail. This forum will provide a one-stop shop for explanations and answers for these new reporting requirements. Everyone who will be providing input for their company’s reporting — from control room supervisors to integrity specialists to compliance specialists and data entry personnel — should attend. You will hear from those who know it best: PHMSA personnel and the industry’s team that manages PPTS.

The workshop will be held December 2-3 at the Hilton Westchase Hotel in Houston, Texas. There is a modest registration fee. For more information, go to http://new.api.org/meetings/calendar/ppts.cfm or contact Cheryl Trench, Allegro Energy Consulting at ctrench@rcn.com.
