Historical totals may change as PHMSA receives supplemental information on incidents.
(1) Does not include 1,851 injuries that required medical treatment reported for the October, 1994 accidents that were caused by severe flooding near Houston, Texas.
(2) The reporting criteria changed in 2002 adding small spills down to 5 gallons. The change was instituted on 2/7/2002. For continuity with past trending, the data from post-2/7/2002 accidents used in our statistical summary includes only accidents meeting the reporting criteria: Accidents with gross loss greater than or equal to 50 barrels; those involving any fatality or injury; fire/explosion not intentionally set; Highly Volatile Liquid releases with gross loss of 5 or more barrels; or those involving total costs greater than or equal to $50,000.
