Pipeline Safety: Notice of Public 

Webinars on Implementation of 

Distribution Integrity Management 

Programs 

AGENCY: Pipeline and Hazardous 

Materials Safety Administration 

(PHMSA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of Public Webinars. 

SUMMARY: Members of the state and 

Federal Distribution Integrity 

Management Program Implementation 

Team (Team) recently completed a 

series of pilot inspections of gas 

distribution operators’ distribution 

integrity management programs (DIMP). 

The purpose of the two separate and 

distinct webinars is to discuss the 

Team’s findings and general 

observations from the pilot inspections; 

the expectations for operators in 

implementing their plan; the DIMP 

inspection forms; and a question and 

answer session. 

DATES: The webinars will be held on 

May 10, 2011, between 10:30 a.m. and 

12:30 p.m. EDT and June 8, 2011, at 

10:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. EDT. Refer to 

the DIMP Web site for additional 

information: http:// 

primis.phmsa.dot.gov/dimp/index.htm. 

Copies of the presentations will be 

available on the DIMP website within 30 

days following the webinar.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Purpose: 

The DIMP Team is a collaboration of 

state and Federal regulators to support 

improvements in the integrity of the 

Nation’s gas distribution pipeline 

systems through development of 

inspection methods and guidance for 

the evaluation of an operator’s DIMP. 

The Team recognizes the individual 

characteristics of each state’s oversight 

program and operating conditions as 

well as the evolutionary process that 

distribution system operators will go 

through in building an integrity 

management culture from a prescriptive, 

compliance-based culture. Due to the 

high level, risk-based, performance 

oriented nature of the regulations 

contained in 49 CFR 192.1001–1015, the 

Team recognizes that operators are 

seeking guidance in implementing their 

programs. Two webinars are being 

sponsored to provide operators with 

information and to direct operators to 

resource material. 

The material presented at this 

webinar was created by the Team 

through a consensus process. States will 

implement the DIMP rule under their 

individual state statutory authority in 

accordance with the applicable 

certification under 49 U.S.C. 60105 or 

agreement under section 60106. States 

may establish their own procedures, 

inspection forms, and guidance in 

implementing the DIMP rule. Since 

regulatory structures differ among 

states, operators should contact the state 

authority regulating their distribution 

pipeline system for more information.
