PHMSA Regulations

PHMSA (Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration) regulations are rules designed to ensure the safe transportation of oil, gas, and hazardous materials through pipelines and other means. These regulations set standards for pipeline design, construction, operation, and maintenance, as well as safety practices, reporting, and emergency response procedures. Their goal is to prevent accidents, protect public health and the environment, and promote system integrity. Operators of pipelines and hazardous material transporters must comply with these rules to minimize risks and respond effectively in case of incidents.
