PHMSA Data Mart

The Department of Transportation/Pipeline Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) has developed a Data Mart that shows all information an operator has submitted (forms, safety condition reports, annual reports, NPMS, etc.) as well as compilations from those submittals. Formerly assembled only for the operators that have had an Integrated Inspection, the Data Mart is now in place for each operator. It contains more information than the public operator pages, and is currently available only to the operator involved.

The information contained in the Data Mart will be used during inspections, enforcement actions and other aspects of PHMSA’s interaction with an operator. Inaccuracies in the data may cause significant issues in the future. PHMSA encourages Pipeline and LNG Operators to access the Pipeline Data Mart to view and validate the accuracy of all required reports submitted to PHMSA. All reports are available electronically. A feedback form is available that will allow operators to ask questions or suggest changes/updates to data. However, please keep in mind most data will need to be changed by the operator via a supplemental submission.
