Underground Gas Storage Final Rule Correction

[Docket No. PHMSA-2016-0016; Amdt. No. 191-28]

On July 23, 2020, PHMSA published a notice in the Federal Register that corrects an unintended deletion of certain National Registry of Operators reporting requirements for natural gas pipeline operators in regard to the final rule titled “Safety of Underground Natural Gas Storage Facilities” that PHMSA published in the Federal Register on February 12, 2020; 85 FR 8104. The final rule amended PHMSA’s regulations establishing minimum safety standards for underground natural gas storage facilities.  The final rule contained an error that inadvertently removed two paragraphs from the current regulations. This notice corrects an unintended deletion of certain reporting requirements for natural gas pipeline operators. For a copy of the correction notice from the Federal Register, contact Jessica Foley.
