Notice; issuance of advisory bulletin.
Summary
RSPA is issuing this advisory bulletin to notify to owners and operators operators of natural gas and hazardous liquid pipeline systems of to advise them to review the capacity of their Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system to ensure that the system has resources to accommodate normal and abnormal operations on its pipeline system. In addition, SCADA configuration and operating parameters should be periodically reviewed, and adjusted if necessary, to assure that the SCADA computers are functioning as intended. Further, operators should ensure that system modifications do not adversely affect overall performance of the SCADA system. We recommend that the operator consult with the original system designer.
