Pipeline Safety Notifications and Changes
Due to recent amendments to federal pipeline safety law the State Fire Marshal’s Office of Pipeline Safety (SFM) has issued a notification to pipeline operators to explain the changes. All pipelines under SFM jurisdiction are exempt from DOGGR jurisdiction and therefore may result in changes to an operator’s pipeline management plan (required under CCR §1774).
The SFM notification and a copy of the Federal Register containing the changes to federal law are available to view and download.
