§192.69 Storage and handling of plastic pipe and associated components.
This subpart prescribes minimum requirements for the selection and qualification of pipe and components for use in pipelines.
(a) Able to maintain the structural integrity of the pipeline under temperature and other environmental conditions that may be anticipated;
(b) Chemically compatible with any gas that they transport and with any other material in the pipeline with which they are in contact; and
(c) Qualified in accordance with the applicable requirements of this subpart.
(a) New plastic pipe is qualified for use under this part if:
(1) It is manufactured in accordance with a listed specification;
(2) It is resistant to chemicals with which contact may be anticipated; and
(3) It is free of visible defects.
(b) Used plastic pipe is qualified for use under this part if:
(2) It is resistant to chemicals with which contact may be anticipated;
(3) It has been used only in gas service;
(4) Its dimensions are still within the tolerances of the specification to which it was manufactured; and
(5) It is free of visible defects.
(c) For the purpose of paragraphs (a)(1) and (b)(1) of this section, where pipe of a diameter included in a listed specification is impractical to use, pipe of a diameter between the sizes included in a listed specification may be used if it:
(1) Meets the strength and design criteria required of pipe included in that listed specification; and
(2) Is manufactured from plastic compounds which meet the criteria for material required of pipe included in that listed specification.

(a) Except as provided in paragraph (d) and (e) of this section, each valve, fitting, length of pipe, and other component must be marked as prescribed in the specification or standard to which it was manufactured.
(d) Paragraph (a) of this section does not apply to items manufactured before November 12, 1970, that meet all of the following:
(1) The item is identifiable as to type, manufacturer, and model.
(2) Specifications or standards giving pressure, temperature, and other appropriate criteria for the use of items are readily available.
(e) All plastic pipe and components must also meet the following requirements:
(1) All markings on plastic pipe prescribed in the listed specification and the requirements of paragraph (e)(2) of this section must be repeated at intervals not exceeding two feet.
(2) Plastic pipe and components manufactured after December 31, 2019 must be marked in accordance with the listed specification.
(3) All physical markings on plastic pipelines prescribed in the listed specification and paragraph (e)(2) of this section must be legible until the time of installation.

(a) For steel transmission pipelines installed after [July 1, 2020, an operator must collect or make, and retain for the life of the pipeline, records that document the physical characteristics of the pipeline, including diameter, yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, wall thickness, seam type, and chemical composition of materials for pipe in accordance with §§192.53 and 192.55. Records must include tests, inspections, and attributes required by the manufacturing specifications applicable at the time the pipe was manufactured or installed.
(b) For steel transmission pipelines installed on or before July 1, 2020], if operators have records that document tests, inspections, and attributes required by the manufacturing specifications applicable at the time the pipe was manufactured or installed, including diameter, yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, wall thickness, seam type, and chemical composition in accordance with §§192.53 and 192.55, operators must retain such records for the life of the pipeline.
(c) For steel transmission pipeline segments installed on or before July 1, 2020], if an operator does not have records necessary to establish the MAOP of a pipeline segment, the operator may be subject to the requirements of §192.624 according to the terms of that section.
