Background
Notice of Passenger Facility Charge
(PFC) Approvals and Disapprovals
The U.S. Secretary of Transportation
announced on March 7, 2006, the five
medical experts who serve on the MRB.
Section 4116 of the Safe, Accountable,
Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity
Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA–LU,
Pub. L. 109–59) requires the Secretary of
Transportation with the advice of the
MRB to ‘‘establish, review, and revise
medical standards for operators of
Commercial Motor Vehicles (CMVs) that
will ensure that the physical condition
of operators is adequate to enable them
operate the vehicles safely.’’ FMCSA is
planning updates to the physical
qualification regulations of CMV
drivers, and the MRB will provide the
necessary science-based guidance to
establish realistic and responsible
medical standards.
The MRB operates in accordance with
FACA as announced in the Federal
Register (70 FR 57642, October 3, 2005).
The MRB is charged initially with the
review of all current FMCSA medical
standards (49 CFR 391.41), as well as
making recommendations for new
science-based standards and guidelines
to ensure that drivers operating CMVs in
interstate commerce, as defined in CFR
390.5, are physically capable of doing
so.

Pipeline Safety: Operator Qualification
(OQ) Program Modifications
erowe on DSK5CLS3C1PROD with NOTICES
AGENCY: Pipeline and Hazardous
Materials Safety Administration
(PHMSA); DOT.
ACTION: Notice; Issuance of Advisory
Bulletin.
SUMMARY: The Pipeline and Hazardous
Materials Safety Administration
(PHMSA) is issuing this Advisory
Bulletin to inform pipeline operators
about the standardized notification
process for operator qualification (OQ)
plan transmittal from the operator to
PHMSA. This Advisory Bulletin also
informs operators about the addition to
PHMSA’s glossary of definitions of the
terms ‘‘Observation of on-the-job
performance’’ as applicable to
determining employee qualification and
‘‘Significant’’ as applicable to OQ
program modifications requiring
notification. Finally, it makes other
miscellaneous clarifications to assist
operators in complying with OQ
program requirements.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Warren Miller by phone at 816–329–
3815 or by e-mail at
warren.miller@dot.gov regarding the
subject matter of this Advisory Bulletin,
or the Dockets Unit, (202) 366–4453, for
copies of this Advisory Bulletin or other
material in the docket. All materials in
this docket may be accessed
electronically at https://dma.dot.gov.
General information about the PHMSA
Office of Pipeline Safety (OPS) can be
obtained by accessing OPS’s Internet
home page at https://
www.phmsa.dot.gov/pipeline.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On March 3, 2005, PHMSA issued a
Direct Final Rule (70 FR 10332) on
VerDate Nov<24>2008
14:05 Dec 04, 2009
Jkt 220001
qualification of pipeline personnel
which amended the requirements for
pipeline operators to develop and
maintain a written qualification
program for individuals performing
covered tasks on pipeline facilities. In
response to implementation issues and
questions that arose after the rule was
published, PHMSA has previously
published Advisory Bulletins regarding
OQ programs. These bulletins remain
relevant:
• ADB–04–05, Operator Qualification
Requirements, published November 26,
2004.
• ADB–06–01, Notice to Operators of
Natural Gas and Hazardous Liquid
Pipelines to Integrate Operator
Qualification Regulations into
Excavation Activities, published
January 17, 2006.
Based on input from State pipeline
safety program managers and the
PHMSA Federal and State OQ Team,
PHMSA has developed a standardized
process for OQ plan transmittal from the
operator to PHMSA. The team also
developed definitions of the terms
‘‘Observation of on-the-job
performance’’ as applicable to
determining employee qualification and
‘‘Significant’’ as applicable to OQ
program modifications requiring
notification. PHMSA has added these
definitions to its glossary of terms.
Finally, the team identified other
miscellaneous clarifications to assist
operators in complying with OQ
program requirements.
II. Advisory Bulletin ADB–09–03
To: Owners and Operators of
Hazardous Liquid and Natural Gas
Pipeline Systems.
Subject: Operator Qualification
Programs.
Advisory: This Advisory Bulletin
informs pipeline operators about the
standardized notification process for
operator qualification (OQ) plan
transmittal from the operator to
PHMSA. This Advisory Bulletin also
informs operators about the addition to
PHMSA’s glossary of definitions of the
terms ‘‘Observation of on-the-job
performance’’ as applicable to
determining employee qualification and
‘‘Significant’’ as applicable to OQ
program modifications requiring
notification. Finally, it makes other
miscellaneous clarifications regarding
OQ programs.
Standardized Plan Transmittal Process
Operators should send notifications of
significant modification of an OQ
Program to the OPS Information
Resource Manager by e-mail at

Safety, Information Resources Manager,
1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., East
Building, 2nd Floor (PHP–10), Room
E22–321, Washington, DC 20590.
Note: Operators subject to regulation by
State agencies are required to send OQ
notifications directly to each State agency.
Regardless of the delivery method,
each notification to PHMSA should
include:
1. OPID(s), operator name(s), HQ
address. Name of individual submitting
notification, Data/email/phone number,
Commodity (gas/liquid/both), PHMSA
Region(s) where pipeline(s) operate, and
names of respective facilities or pipeline
systems where changes apply.
2. Complete Plan accompanied by
revision/change log and effective date of
change(s). The plan should be notated
such that changed areas of the plan can
be readily identified. Employee-specific
information (i.e., social security
numbers) and testing material are not
needed.
Definitions
With respect to the use of
‘‘Observation of on-the-job
performance’’ as a means of determining
employee qualification, PHMSA has
added a definition of this term to its
glossary of terms on the PHMSA Primis
OQ Web site at https://
primis.phmsa.dot.gov/oq/glossary.htm.
PHMSA also added a definition of the
word ‘‘significant’’ to the glossary as it
applies to modifications to an operator’s
OQ program. The definitions read as
follows:
Observation of On-The-Job Performance
1. Observation without interaction
during on-the-job performance does not
provide an adequate measurement of the
knowledge and skills of the individual;
2. PHMSA has determined that there
are no covered tasks to date where
observation of on-the-job performance is
an adequate, sole method for examining
or testing qualification; and
3. Observation of on-the-job
performance does not measure the
individual’s ability to recognize and
react to abnormal operation conditions
(AOCs).
Significant
As applicable to OQ program
modifications, significant includes but
is not limited to: increasing evaluation
intervals, increasing span of control
ratios, eliminating covered tasks,
mergers and/or acquisition changes,
