PHMSA
has issued an advisory bulletin to remind pipeline owners and operators
of the importance of assuring that pipelines have not been damaged
during a railroad accident or other event occurring in the right-of-way.
Further, the bulletin reminds pipeline owners and operators of the
importance of providing pertinent information to rail operators and
emergency response officials during an incident.
The
information should include the presence, depth and location of the
pipelines so that the movement of heavy equipment and debris on the
right-of-way does not damage or rupture the pipeline or otherwise pose a
hazard to people working in, and around, the accident location.
