Issue Description: Last year, PHMSA, NAPSR, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, and the National Energy Board of Canada jointly sponsored a construction workshop focusing on transmission pipeline construction issues. This workshop will focus on natural gas distribution construction. Natural gas distribution pipelines are subject to a unique subset of construction-related risks and issues, as compared to transmission and other pipelines. Federal and state regulator inspections of distribution pipeline construction projects occasionally observe patterns of similar findings. Poor construction quality has led to short and long term pipeline integrity issues and risk to public safety. The workshop will include presentations highlighting areas of concern based on inspection results and industry VerDate Nov<24>2008 14:14 Mar 18, 2010 Jkt 220001 presentations describing practices and possible solutions. The panel format will offer the opportunity for dialogue and sharing of ideas for solutions to avoid construction quality issues. PHMSA developed this workshop in collaboration with NAPSR, state partners, and the American Gas Association to inform the public and review lessons learned from inspections, and to improve distribution pipeline construction practices. This workshop will focus solely on natural gas distribution pipelines. Preliminary Workshop Agenda The workshop will include: (1) Federal and state observations related to inspection findings. (2) Distribution materials, Quality Assurance/Quality Control, related best practices. (3) Construction Issues, Joining, Horizontal Directional Drill/Boring, Excavation Damage. (4) Discussions of solutions. Refer to the meeting Web site for a more detailed agenda: https:// primis.phmsa.dot.gov/meetings/ Mtg63.mtg. Issued in Washington, DC on March 15, 2010. Alan K.
