EVOLVING FROM AWARENESS TO ENGAGEMENT

Two-way Communication with External Stakeholders

  • Regulators, Public Stakeholder Groups, Neighbors
  • Beyond awareness and pure communication
  • Communicating about safety operations and risk

management

  • Acknowledging notification may be next evolution
  • Other opportunities exist for engagement outside the

public awareness outlined in RP 1162

Strong commitment to engage with external stakeholders

  • Engagement policy and plan in place for two-way communication
  • Communicated throughout organization by leaders and field

champions Operators share safety performance with those that live, work and plan in proximity to their pipelines A mechanism is in place for stakeholders and the operator to have an

  • ngoing dialogue with those that wish to do so, regarding safety and

asset-related concerns Personnel are made available to the public to receive and exchange information

External SMS Engagement Guidance

WHAT MORE SHOULD WE BE

DOING?

  • Should there be some means of acknowledgment?
  • Is the notification approach right to the audience?
  • What does risk communications mean to you?
  • Should we measure behavior change vs. the intent to

change behavior?
