informed of this requirement prior to 

submitting their application.

the terms and conditions of the 

exemption; (2) the exemption has 

resulted in a lower level of safety than 

was maintained before it was granted; or

person may apply to FMCSA for a 

renewal under procedures in effect at 

that time.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PHMSA 

requires operators of gas distribution, 

transmission, and gathering pipelines to 

complete and submit annual and 

incident reports. PHMSA also requires 

immediate telephone notification from

incident. The follow-up written report 

for each incident is to be submitted by 

the operators within 30 days of the 

incident. The reporting requirements are

The operators are required to use 

PHMSA forms F 7100.1, F 7100.1–1, F 

7100.2 and F 7100.2–2 for their report 

submissions to PHMSA. These reports 

enable PHMSA to identify and evaluate 

existing and potential pipeline safety 

problems as part of its efforts to 

minimize natural gas pipeline failures 

and to develop statistical and data/ 

safety reports. A copy of the report 

forms is available in the docket.
