Pipeline Inspection Forms
The Pipeline Safety Division of the Pennsylvania PUC enforces state and federal pipeline safety regulations.
There are multiple types of inspections that regulators are required to perform such as construction, integrity management, operator qualification, system wide program inspections, compliance/safety follow-ups, and more. You can find a full list and explanation of inspection types from Pipeline Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) on the PHMSA website. We determine when and how often to perform the different types of inspections by following PHMSA guidelines. Typically, the inspections are completed at various cycles, but at least once every five years or as determined operational need and risk.
The following are inspection forms that the Pipeline Safety Division uses to conduct inspections of regulated pipeline utilities. Engineers review operation and maintenance records, review company procedures, and verify pipeline facilities in the field are in compliance.
