SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Summary of Comments Received During the 60-day comment period, PHMSA received a joint comment from American Petroleum Institute (API) and the Association of Oil Pipe Lines (AOPL) and a comment from the American Gas Association. Both comments emphasized the importance of PHMSA streamlining its data collection and entry processes. American Petroleum Institute (API) and the Association of Oil Pipe Lines (AOPL) provided a joint comment recommending that PHMSA allow operators to submit annual report data through the National Pipeline Mapping System (NPMS). However, the NPMS does not currently include all of the pipeline attributes in the annual report. Additionally, PHMSA’s proposal to add attributes to the NPMS through docket PHMSA–2014–0092 is not approved by the OMB and does not include attributes for barrel-miles transported, integrity inspections, or integrity assessments. For these reasons, operators need to continue to use Parts C, F, and G of the Annual Report. API/AOPL are proposing that PHMSA remove Part M Breakout Tanks by state, interstate/intrastate and by size. PHMSA needs to collect data on breakout tanks since the public relies on PHMSA to provide this data. The state and interstate/intrastate status of the breakout tanks is required to determine whether PHMSA or a state pipeline safety partner regulates the tanks. API/AOPL also recommended that PHMSA allow operators to submit VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:12 Oct 19, 2018 Jkt 247001 annual report data to the PHMSA portal by way of Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP). PHMSA has invested significant effort in the data collection routine currently in use. Numerous validations have been built to ensure the consistency of data among various parts of the annual report. PHMSA lacks the resources to recreate these validations in an SFTP environment. If PHMSA were to provide an SFTP submittal option, it would be extremely difficult to incorporate future changes. If the annual report were to change in the future, PHMSA would have to modify the existing data collection routine and the SFTP process. The American Gas Association (AGA) submitted a comment in support of the joint comment submitted by API/AOPL. Section 1320.8(d), Title 5, Code of Federal Regulations, requires PHMSA to provide interested members of the public and affected agencies an opportunity to comment on information collection and recordkeeping requests. This notice identifies an information collection request that PHMSA will submit to OMB for revision. The following information is provided for this information collection: (1) Title of the information collection; (2) OMB control number; (3) Current expiration date; (4) Type of request; (5) Abstract of the information collection activity; (6) Description of affected public; (7) Estimate of total annual reporting and recordkeeping burden; and (8) Frequency of collection. PHMSA will request a three-year term of approval for this information collection activity. PHMSA requests comments on the following information collection: Title: Reporting Requirements for Hazardous Liquid Pipeline Operators: Hazardous Liquid Annual Report. OMB Control Number: 2137–0614. Current Expiration Date: 10/31/2018. Type of Request: Revision. Abstract: Each operator must annually complete and submit Form PHMSA F 7000–1.1 for each type of hazardous liquid pipeline facility operated at the end of the previous year, as required by 49 CFR 195.49. This Annual Report for Hazardous Liquid Pipeline Systems is required to be filed by June 15 of each year for the preceding calendar year. On the Annual Report form, PHMSA collects data concerning the number of miles of pipeline each operator has and other characteristics of each pipeline system. PHMSA also collects information on the number of anomalies identified and repaired using various types of pipe inspection and assessment methods. Affected Public: Hazardous liquid pipeline operators.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Summary of Comments Received

    During the 60-day comment period, PHMSA received a joint comment 
from American Petroleum Institute (API) and the Association of Oil Pipe 
Lines (AOPL) and a comment from the American Gas Association. Both 
comments emphasized the importance of PHMSA streamlining its data 
collection and entry processes.
    American Petroleum Institute (API) and the Association of Oil Pipe 
Lines (AOPL) provided a joint comment recommending that PHMSA allow 
operators to submit annual report data through the National Pipeline 
Mapping System (NPMS). However, the NPMS does not currently include all 
of the pipeline attributes in the annual report. Additionally, PHMSA's 
proposal to add attributes to the NPMS through docket PHMSA-2014-0092 
is not approved by the OMB and does not include attributes for barrel-
miles transported, integrity inspections, or integrity assessments. For 
these reasons, operators need to continue to use Parts C, F, and G of 
the Annual Report.
    API/AOPL are proposing that PHMSA remove Part M Breakout Tanks by 
state, interstate/intrastate and by size. PHMSA needs to collect data 
on breakout tanks since the public relies on PHMSA to provide this 
data. The state and interstate/intrastate status of the breakout tanks 
is required to determine whether PHMSA or a state pipeline safety 
partner regulates the tanks.
    API/AOPL also recommended that PHMSA allow operators to submit 
annual report data to the PHMSA portal by way of Secure File Transfer 
Protocol (SFTP). PHMSA has invested significant effort in the data 
collection routine currently in use. Numerous validations have been 
built to ensure the consistency of data among various parts of the 
annual report. PHMSA lacks the resources to recreate these validations 
in an SFTP environment. If PHMSA were to provide an SFTP submittal 
option, it would be extremely difficult to incorporate future changes. 
If the annual report were to change in the future, PHMSA would have to 
modify the existing data collection routine and the SFTP process.
    The American Gas Association (AGA) submitted a comment in support 
of the joint comment submitted by API/AOPL.
    Section 1320.8(d), Title 5, Code of Federal Regulations, requires 
PHMSA to provide interested members of the public and affected agencies 
an opportunity to comment on information collection and recordkeeping 
requests. This notice identifies an information collection request that 
PHMSA will submit to OMB for revision. The following information is 
provided for this information collection: (1) Title of the information 
collection; (2) OMB control number; (3) Current expiration date; (4) 
Type of request; (5) Abstract of the information collection activity; 
(6) Description of affected public; (7) Estimate of total annual 
reporting and recordkeeping burden; and (8) Frequency of collection. 
PHMSA will request a three-year term of approval for this information 
collection activity. PHMSA requests comments on the following 
information collection:
    Title: Reporting Requirements for Hazardous Liquid Pipeline 
Operators: Hazardous Liquid Annual Report.
    OMB Control Number: 2137-0614.
    Current Expiration Date: 10/31/2018.

This Annual Report for Hazardous Liquid Pipeline Systems is required to 
be filed by June 15 of each year for the preceding calendar year. On 
the Annual Report form, PHMSA collects data concerning the number of
