Rule Section: §192.905(a)

General.

Rule Hierarchy:

• 192.905  How does an operator identify a high consequence area?
  • 192.905(a) General.

Rule Language:

To determine which segments of an operator's transmission pipeline system are covered by this subpart, an operator must identify the high consequence areas. An operator must use method (a) or (b) from the definition in CFR:192.903 to identify a high consequence area. An operator may apply one method to its entire pipeline system, or an operator may apply one method to individual portions of the pipeline system. An operator must describe in its integrity management program which method it is applying to each portion of the operator's pipeline system. The description must include the potential impact radius when utilized to establish a high consequence area. (See Appendix E.I. for guidance on identifying high consequence areas.)
