OQ NPRM 80 FR 39916 Presented by ENERGY worldnet, Inc. 10 Essential Elements to the Perfect Pipeline Safety Management System Safety Management Systems – Catchy Title Subtitle Louisiana Gas Association | July 10 - 14, 2017 ABCD v1.0 Mary Ames

Safety Cult lture Safety cultures consist of shared beliefs, practices, and attitudes that exist at an establishment. Culture is the atmosphere created by those beliefs, attitudes, etc., which shape our behavior.

Safety Management System A systematic way to identify hazards and control risks while maintaining assurance that these risk controls are effective. Guidelines for the facilitation of a good safety culture.

Coll llaborative Approach

System Thin ink • Identify Issues • Prioritize the Issues • Develop solutions • Evaluate the solutions

PDCA Cycle

API/ANSI R RP 1173 • Framework to reveal and manage risk • Promote a learning environment • Continuously improve pipeline safety and integrity

PHMSA fully supports the implementation of RP 1173 and plans to promote vigorous conformance to this voluntary standard. Written Statement of Administrator Marie Therese Dominguez before the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure on Pipeline Reauthorization, Feb 25, 2016

10 Essential Elements

Essential Ele lements 1) Leadership And Management Commitment 2) Risk Management 3) Stakeholder Engagement 4) Documentation And Record Keeping 5) Competence, Awareness, And Training 6) Operational Controls 7) Emergency Preparedness And Response 8) Incident Investigation, Evaluation, And Lessons Learned 9) Safety Assurance 10) Management Review And Continuous Improvement

Leadership Commitment Top Management goals, objectives and communicate Management plans, policies and procedures Employees identify, report and improve

Ris isk Management • Identify and assess threats • Plan to mitigate risk and intended effectiveness • Include pipeline, materials construction, operation history, safety record and environment • Review at least annually

Stakeholder Engagement Internal - communicate SMS goals, objectives, and procedures. Give employees and contractors a way to raise concerns and make recommendations for improvements. • Includes employees and contractors External - communicate SMS operations, efforts, and performance. • Includes regulatory bodies and representatives of the public

Documentation & Recordkeeping Operator will identify, distribute and control documents and records required to fulfill the elements of the Pipeline SMS. Pipeline SMS, including revisions, translations, and updates are: • Reviewed and approved for adequacy prior to issue and use • Remain legible and readily identifiable • Readily available and accessible to workers performing an activity

Competence, Awareness & Training Operators will provide training to employees and contractors to ensure all have the requisite competence and are aware of the following: • Applicable elements of the Pipeline SMS that affect their job requirements • Newly emerging or changing risks, problems in execution of the Pipeline SMS, and opportunities to improve processes and procedures • Potential consequences of failure to follow processes or procedures

Operational Controls Operating Procedures - written procedures to minimize human error System Controls - pipeline operator shall ensure pipeline systems are designed, manufactured, fabricated, installed, operated, maintained, inspected and tested subject to applicable requirements, recommendations and standards. Management of Change - written procedures on how to communicate changes

Emergency Preparedness & Response • Determination of emergency types • Internal and external notification Written procedures requirements • Identification of response resources for preparing for and and interfaces effectively managing • Recognition of the Unified pipeline incidents. Command/Incident Command Structure • Communication planning • Training and drill programs • Program and plan review process • Improvement processes

In Incident In Investigation, Evaluation, & Lessons Learned Investigate Accidents – procedure for investigating incidents and near-misses • Identifying causes and contributing factors, • Producing findings and lessons learned, • Recommendations for safety performance improvement Lessons Learned – procedure for how to determine and document lessons learned from investigations. Action to implement risk assessment and improvement must be tracked and completed.

Safety Assurance Audits • At least once every 3 years • Internal auditors must not be involved in the work of the SMS or operations being audited • External auditors allowed Response to Audit findings • Defined response times • Corrective actions taken • Closure

Management Review & Continuous Improvement Im Top Management annual review • Goals and objectives of the Pipeline SMS • Status of corrective actions from past • management reviews • Performance measures and KPIs • Results of the risk management review • Results and recommendations of incident • investigations, evaluations and lessons learned • Results of internal and external audits and evaluations • Changes that could affect the Pipeline SMS including legal, regulatory or other requirements, stakeholder feedback, and evaluation of safety culture
