Abstract: The United States Department of Transportation (DOT) has begun phasing in Pipeline Integrity Management rules, which require operators of interstate gas and hazardous liquids transmission pipelines to develop integrity management programs (IMPs) to protect public safety. It is becoming increasingly evident that environmental compliance issues may impact the timely implementation of remediation activities required under these rules. Delays in implementing these remediation activities may result in extended periods of lowered operating pressures, reduced deliverability, and loss of revenue. A successful IMP is therefore more likely to result with the integration of an environmental compliance strategy into the program. This paper provides Operations Personnel, Engineers, and Environmental staff a practical framework for developing an environmental compliance strategy for an IMP.
