Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) reposted this
Thanks Director Kevin Sligh Sr, MBA for a productive day convening Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement and Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) leaders all the way from Alaska to the Gulf of Mexico to improve coordination and safety oversight of the world's largest, most sophisticated energy production and transportation systems.
BSEE Director Kevin Sligh, U.S. Department of Transportation Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) Deputy Administrator Tristan Brown and key leaders from both agencies met for the first-ever BSEE-PHMSA principals meeting in Washington D.C. July 24. BSEE and PHMSA leaders provided updates on agency regulatory efforts and led sessions on incident response, enforcement, cybersecurity and carbon sequestration to improve coordination between the agencies regarding the regulation of pipeline systems on the Outer Continental Shelf. BSEE collaborates with PHMSA in the areas of pipeline safety, spill prevention and response, inspections, investigations and enforcement. Aligning efforts on federal roles and responsibilities will avoid duplicative efforts, increase human health and environmental safety, and effectively implement compatible regulatory requirements for all OCS pipelines.
