Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. Scope. This section applies to onshore
				  line pipe that can accommodate inspection by means of in-line inspection tools
				  and is not subject to the integrity management requirements in
				  §
											30452 [49 CFR
				  195.416(a)]
B. General. An operator must perform an
				  initial assessment of each of its pipeline segments by October 1, 2029, and
				  perform periodic assessments of its pipeline segments at least once every 10
				  calendar years from the year of the prior assessment or as otherwise necessary
				  to ensure public safety or the protection of the environment. [49 CFR
				  195.416(b)]
C. Method. Except as specified in Subsection
				  D of this Section, an operator must perform the integrity assessment for the
				  range of relevant threats to the pipeline segment by the use of an appropriate
				  in-line inspection tool(s). When performing an assessment using an in-line
				  inspection tool, an operator must comply with
				  §30591 An operator must explicitly
				  consider uncertainties in reported results (including tool tolerance, anomaly
				  findings, and unity chart plots or other equivalent methods for determining
				  uncertainties) in identifying anomalies. If this is impracticable based on
				  operational limits, including operating pressure, low flow, and pipeline length
				  or availability of in-line inspection tool technology for the pipe diameter,
				  then the operator must perform the assessment using the appropriate method(s)
				  in Paragraphs C.1, C.2, or C.3 of this Section for the range of relevant
				  threats being assessed. The methods an operator selects to assess low-frequency
				  electric resistance welded pipe, pipe with a seam factor less than 1.0 as
				  defined in
				  §
											30161.E or
				  lap-welded pipe susceptible to longitudinal seam failure must be capable of
				  assessing seam integrity, cracking, and of detecting corrosion and deformation
				  anomalies. The following alternative assessment methods may be used as
				  specified in this Subsection: [49 CFR
				  195.416(c)]
1. a pressure test conducted in accordance
				  with Chapter 303 of this Part; [49 CFR
				  195.416(c)(1)]
2. external corrosion direct assessment in
				  accordance with §30588; or [49 CFR
				  195.416(c)(2)]
3. other technology in accordance with
				  Subsection D. [49 CFR
				  195.416(c)(3)]

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. As used in this part, a notification of
				  potential rupture means refers to the notification to, or observation by, an
				  operator (e.g., by or to its controller(s) in a control room, field personnel,
				  nearby pipeline or utility personnel, the public, local responders, or public
				  authorities) of one or more of the below indicia of a potential unintentional
				  or uncontrolled release of a large volume of hazardous liquids from a pipeline:
				  [49 CFR
				  195.417(a)]
1. An unanticipated or unexplained pressure
				  loss outside of the pipeline's normal operating pressures, as defined in the
				  operator's written procedures. The operator must establish in its written
				  procedures that an unanticipated or unplanned pressure loss is outside of the
				  pipeline's normal operating pressures when there is a pressure loss greater
				  than 10 percent occurring within a time interval of 15 minutes or less, unless
				  the operator has documented in its written procedures the operational need for
				  a greater pressure-change threshold due to pipeline flow dynamics (including
				  changes in operating pressure, flow rate, or volume), that are caused by
				  fluctuations in product demand, receipts, or deliveries; [49 CFR
				  195.417(a)(1)]
2. An unanticipated or unexplained flow rate
				  change, pressure change, equipment function, or other pipeline instrumentation
				  indication at the upstream or downstream station that may be representative of
				  an event meeting Paragraph A.1 of this Section; or [49 CFR
				  195.417(a)(2)]
3. Any unanticipated or unexplained rapid
				  release of a large volume of hazardous liquid, a fire, or an explosion, in the
				  immediate vicinity of the pipeline. [49 CFR
				  195.417(a)(3)]
Louisiana Administrative Code › Title 33 - ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY › Part V - Hazardous Wastes and Hazardous Materials › Subpart 3 - Natural Resources › Chapter 304 - Transportation of Hazardous Liquids by Pipeline-Operation and Maintenance [49 CFR Part 195 Subpart F] › Section V-30419 - Valve Capabilities [49 CFR 195.419]

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. Scope. The requirements in this section
				  apply to rupture-mitigation valves (RMV), as defined in §30105, or alternative
				  equivalent technology, installed pursuant to
				  §30258 [49 CFR
				  195.419(a)]
B. Rupture Identification and Valve Shut-Off
				  Time. If an operator observes or is notified of a release of hazardous liquid
				  or carbon dioxide that may be representative of an unintentional or
				  uncontrolled release event meeting a notification of potential rupture (see
				  §30105 and 30417), including any
				  unexplained flow rate changes, pressure changes, equipment functions, or other
				  pipeline instrumentation indications observed by the operator, the operator
				  must, as soon as practicable but within 30 minutes of rupture identification
				  (see §30402.E 4, identify the
				  rupture and fully close any RMVs or alternative equivalent technologies
				  necessary to minimize the volume of hazardous liquid or carbon dioxide released
				  from a pipeline and mitigate the consequences of a rupture. [49 CFR
				  195.419(b)]
C. Valve Shut-Off Capability. A valve must
				  have the actuation capability necessary to close an RMV or alternative
				  equivalent technology to mitigate the consequences of a rupture in accordance
				  with the requirements of this section. [49 CFR
				  195.419(c)]
D. Valve Monitoring and Operational
				  Capabilities. An RMV, as defined in §30105, or alternative equivalent
				  technology, must be capable of being monitored or controlled by either remote
				  or onsite personnel as follows: [49 CFR
				  195.419(d)]
1. operated during normal, abnormal, and
				  emergency operating conditions; [49 CFR
				  195.419(d)(1)]
2. monitored for valve status (i.e., open,
				  closed, or partial closed/open), upstream pressure, and downstream pressure.
				  For automatic shut-off valves (ASV), an operator does not need to monitor
				  remotely a valve's status if the operator has the capability to monitor
				  pressures or flow rate within each pipeline segment located between RMVs or
				  alternative equivalent technologies to identify and locate a rupture. Pipeline
				  segments that use an alternative equivalent technology must have the capability
				  to monitor pressures and hazardous liquid or carbon dioxide flow rates on the
				  pipeline in order to identify and locate a rupture; and [49 CFR
				  195.419(d)(2)]
3. have a back-up power source to maintain
				  supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems or other remote
				  communications for remote-control valve (RCV) or ASV operational status or be
				  monitored and controlled by on-site personnel. [49 CFR
