State Pipeline Performance Measures

As part of its annual grant evaluation process, PHMSA performs thorough evaluations of each state pipeline safety regulatory program. To support this evaluation PHMSA and the National Association of Pipeline Safety Representatives (NAPSR) have developed a set of performance measures. These measures look at state program performance in six areas:

  • Damage Prevention Program
  • Inspection Activity
  • Inspector Qualification
  • Leak Management
  • Enforcement
  • Incident Investigation

State Agencies provides oversight of intrastate pipelines systems through certification by PHMSA.
