SUMMARY: This Notice announces a

public meeting in St. Louis, Missouri, to

seek public input on regulatory reform

and improved customer service in

RSPA’s pipeline safety program. This

meeting is the fourth of its kind since

the April 25, 1995, meeting in Dallas,

Texas. This public meeting is consistent

with the objectives of the President’s

Regulatory Reinvention Initiative (RRI)

and seeks to improve the customer

service provided by the pipeline safety

program.

Comments: Interested persons are also

invited to submit written comments

regarding the subject matter of this

Notice. Comments received will not be

limited to RRI issues or the subject

matter of this Notice, and attendance in

the meeting is not a prerequisite for the

submission of written comments.

General comments or suggestions for
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 118 / Tuesday, June 18, 1996 / Notices 30937

improving the Pipeline Safety Program

are invited. Please submit comments

before July 18, 1996. Please address

written comments to the RSPA Dockets

Unit, attention Verdell Simpkins, U.S.

Department of Transportation, Room

8421, 400 Seventh Street, SW,

Washington, DC 20590–0001.

Comments should reference Docket No.

PS–139.

DATE/ADDRESS: The public meeting will

be held on June 27, 1996, from 9:00 am

to 4:00 pm, at the Henry VIII Hotel, 4690

N. Lindbergh Boulevard, St. Louis,

Missouri.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Eben M. Wyman, Transportation

Specialist, (202) 366–0918 regarding the

subject matter of this notice; or the

Dockets Unit (202) 366–4900; RSPA,

Department of Transportation,

Washington, DC 20590–0001.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March

4, 1995, President Clinton issued a

memorandum to heads of departments

and agencies calling for a review of all

agency regulations and elimination or

revision of those that are outdated or in

need of reform. The President also

directed that front line regulators

‘‘* * * get out of Washington and create

grassroots partnerships’’ with people

affected by agency regulations.

RSPA has reviewed the pipeline

safety regulations in response to the

President’s directive, and has prepared

four regulatory actions, now in the final

rule stage, that are scheduled to be

published in the Federal Register by

early June. These rules will lessen

unnecessary burdens on the pipeline

industry by revisions or updates in areas

including the gas pipeline and liquefied

natural gas safety standards,

administrative practices, industry

consensus standards incorporated by

reference, and general updates and

corrections to the pipeline safety

regulations. The four rules ‘‘reinvent’’

52 pages of the pipeline safety

regulations.

In April and May of 1995, RSPA held

three similar outreach meetings in

Dallas, Denver, and Houston in response

to the RRI directive. RSPA received

many comments from participants at the

meetings as well as written comments to

Docket No. PS–139. The public offered

support on some issues, and pointed out

areas where RSPA needs improvement

in its service to customers. Issues

discussed at the meetings included

RSPA’s pipeline risk management

initiatives, the present scope of RSPA’s

outreach efforts, the pipeline safety

regulations and the regulatory process,

compliance, enforcement, and

jurisdictional issues. These issues were

also addressed in written comments to

the docket. Commenters expressed

views on other issues such as the status

of One-Call legislation, the varying

needs of small and large pipeline

operators, and the role of the pipeline

safety advisory committees. Finally,

specific comments on numerous

regulations were presented. RSPA has

summarized the comments discussed at

the previous outreach meetings, as well

as the written comments submitted by

mail or fax. These documents are

available in Docket No. PS–139.

RSPA has taken all comments into

consideration in its page-by-page review

of the pipeline safety regulations.

However, RSPA continues efforts to

increase outreach projects and to

promote partnerships with the pipeline

industry. To enhance partnerships with

the regulated community and all parties

affected by RSPA regulatory actions,

RSPA believes that public outreach

meetings offer an effective forum to

obtain input from the public on its

pipeline safety program and regulations.

Conduct of the Meeting

The meeting will be informal and is

intended to produce an open dialogue

between agency personnel and persons

affected by the pipeline safety program.

RSPA’s goal is to receive input from all

interested parties, so no formal agenda

will be prepared. Depending on the

number of attendees, RSPA reserves the

right to limit the time allocated to each

speaker to ensure that all participants

have an opportunity to speak.

Conversely, the meeting may conclude

before the scheduled time if all persons

have been heard. RSPA invites

participation by all interested parties on

the status of the pipeline safety

program, regulatory reform and

customer service efforts, regulations and

procedures needing improvement, or

any other issues.
