Original Notice.

     Preproposal statement of inquiry was filed as WSR 00-17-134.

     Title of Rule: Chapter 480-75 WAC, Hazardous liquid, gas, oil and petroleum pipeline companies -- Safety. The proposed rules would establish minimum safety standards and reporting requirements for the transportation of hazardous liquids by pipeline.

     Purpose: This proposal would implement the requirements of chapter 81.88 RCW which requires the commission to develop a comprehensive program of hazardous liquid pipeline safety. In addition, the proposal would implement the Governor's Executive Order 97-02 by reviewing the rules for need, effectiveness and efficiency, clarity, intent and statutory authority, and cost and fairness.

     Other Identifying Information: Docket No. TO-000712.

     Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 80.01.040 and 80.04.160.

     Statute Being Implemented: Chapter 81.88 RCW.

     Summary: See Explanation of Rule below.

     Name of Agency Personnel Responsible for Drafting: Sondra Walsh, Senior Policy Strategist, 1300 South Evergreen Park Drive S.W., Olympia, WA 98504-7250, (360) 664-1286; Implementation and Enforcement: Carole J. Washburn, Secretary, 1300 South Evergreen Park Drive S.W., Olympia, WA 98504-7250, (360) 664-1174.

     Name of Proponent: Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission, governmental.

     Rule is not necessitated by federal law, federal or state court decision.

     Explanation of Rule, its Purpose, and Anticipated Effects: The proposed rules would establish a comprehensive program of hazardous liquid pipeline safety consistent with chapter 8l.88 RCW, by establishing safety standards for the transportation of hazardous liquids by pipeline, by establishing requirements for the design, construction, maintenance, and repair of hazardous liquids pipeline facilities, and by establishing safety plans and reporting requirements. The purpose of the rules is to provide minimum safety standards and reporting requirements for the transportation of hazardous liquids by pipeline. The proposal would protect the health and safety of the public and the environment by implementing safety measures applicable to persons transporting hazardous liquids by pipeline within the state of Washington.

     Proposal Changes the Following Existing Rules: The proposal would change the title of chapter 480-75 WAC to Hazardous liquid, gas, oil and petroleum pipeline companies -- Safety.

     The proposal repeals five out of seven existing rules in chapter 480-75 WAC, creates thirty-six new rules, and amends one existing rule.

     Organization of the Chapter. The proposal would organize chapter 480-75 WAC into six parts (General Rules, Design and Construction Rules, and Maintenance Rules, Reporting Rules, and Adoption by Reference Rule) to improve ease of use.

     General Rules. This section includes common rules that the commission applies to all regulated industries. Placement of general rules in this chapter would eliminate searching other WACs for applicable rules. Two new rules have been proposed for inclusion in this section: WAC 480-75-210 Additional requirements, and 480-75-220 Severability.

     Design. This section includes ten new rules that incorporate the requirements of chapter 81.88 RCW.

     Construction and Repair. This section also includes seven new rules based on the requirements of chapter 81.88 RCW.

     Operation and Maintenance. This section includes six new rules that reflect the requirements of chapter 81.88 RCW.

     Reporting Rules. WAC 480-75-650 Annual reports, has been redrafted for clarity and to reflect the requirements of chapter 81.88 RCW. This section also includes six new rules: WAC 480-75-600 Maps, drawings, and records of hazardous liquid facilities, 480-75-610 Reporting requirements for proposed construction, 480-75-620 Pressure testing reporting requirements, 480-75-630 Incident reporting, 480-75-640 Depth of cover survey, and 480-75-660 Operations safety plan requirements.

     Adoption by Reference. WAC 480-75-999 is amended to update references.

     A small business economic impact statement has been prepared under chapter 19.85 RCW.

     Over the last eighteen months, the commission has circulated multiple rounds of draft rules and held three workshops with stakeholders to discuss draft rule language, receive comments, and explore options. The commission regulates the petroleum pipeline industry for safety, and took into account the economic impact of potential rule changes as an integral part of its analysis. In addition, the commission asked stakeholders to provide information on the economic impact of potential rule provisions for use in preparing a small business economic impact statement (SBEIS). An SBEIS is intended to evaluate any disproportionate impacts of the rule making on small businesses.

     2. Regulatory Fairness Act Requirements: Administrative rules implemented by state agencies can have a disproportionate impact on small businesses, compared to large business, simply because of the size of those businesses. This disproportionate impact may affect competition, innovation, employment, economic growth, and threaten the very existence of some small businesses. Thus, the Regulatory Fairness Act, chapter 19.85 RCW, was enacted with the intent of reducing any disproportionate impact of state administrative rules on small businesses.

     The Regulatory Fairness Act requires agencies to prepare an SBEIS if the proposed rule will impose "more than minor costs on businesses in an industry." An agency must then compare the costs of compliance with the proposed rule for large and small businesses within an industry, and then consider how to mitigate any disproportionate impact on small businesses. A business is categorized as "small" under the Regulatory Fairness Act if the business employs fifty or fewer employees.

     3. Objective: Pursuant to chapter 19.85 RCW, commission staff prepared this SBEIS to examine the anticipated impact on small businesses of the proposed rules for chapter 480-75 WAC, and to propose plausible mitigation strategies, if necessary, based on the magnitude of economic impacts.

     4. Study Procedure: Staff considered the economic impact of potential changes to the petroleum pipeline industry rules as an integral part of its review of the rules themselves. In each round of written and oral comments by stakeholders, economic factors played a central role in the public interest issues under consideration. The commission's regulation of the petroleum industry is unique. The commission has jurisdiction over seven intrastate hazardous liquid companies. The companies range in size from 1.6 miles to 56.01 miles. Consequently drafting rules that are fair and equitable to all companies presents a challenge. Four of the seven companies under commission regulation submitted an SBEIS. The analysis of the surveys follows.

     The commission solicited input on economic impacts during the rule review process by circulating an SBEIS questionnaire in April, 2002. The commission received responses from four of the seven hazardous liquid companies under the commission's jurisdiction: Tidewater Terminal Company (Tidewater); Agrium U.S. Inc. (Agrium); McChord Pipeline Company (McChord); and Kaneb Pipeline Company (Kaneb). Two of the proposed rules Tidewater will implement will cause the company to incur substantial cost. Staff and Tidewater have had discussions on how to mitigate the implementation cost. If the rules are adopted as proposed an option for the company is to request from the commission an extension of time to comply with WAC 480-75-300 and 480-75-330. This would allow the company the ability to budget for the additional cost, and spread that cost over more than one fiscal year.

     Agrium, which has 1.6 miles of pipeline will also incur substantial implementation cost. Staff and Agrium have discussed various ways to mitigate the cost. An option for the company, like for Tidewater, is to request from the commission an extension of time to comply with WAC 480-75-300 and give them the ability to budget for and spread the implementation cost over more than one fiscal year.

     McChord may also incur substantial implementation cost. Staff and McChord continue to have discussions on the intent of WAC 480-75-390. If the company's current system meets the requirements of WAC 480-75-390, the implementation cost would decrease by $250,000. If the system does not meet the requirements of the proposed rule, then the company would incur substantial cost. Staff will continue to work with the company and discuss ways to mitigate the cost if it is found that the system needs to be upgraded to meet the requirements of WAC 480-75-390.

     The SBEIS submitted by Kaneb was inconclusive. Staff reviewed the SBEIS and found that Kaneb answered most of the questions with "cannot be determined at this time." The implementation cost and on-going cost included in the SBEIS is minimal. Staff has attempted to contact Kaneb to discuss their responses. The company has not been available, and did not attend the April 3, 2002, stakeholder meetings where the intent of all the rules was discussed. Staff will continue to try to discuss the intent of the draft rules and Kaneb's SBEIS with the company. At this time the economic impact on the company is minimal.

     6. Conclusion: Below, the section-by-section analysis shows, the economic impact of the proposed rule revisions is generally not significant for petroleum pipeline companies in general. The proposed revisions make the petroleum pipeline companies rules clearer and more consistent, which makes it easier for companies' to comply with the rules. Two of the rules could result in substantial implementation costs for some companies. Staff and the companies will discuss ways to mitigate those costs.

     (2) Pressure relief valve(s) of adequate capacity set to relieve at ten percent above the hydrotest pressure must be installed. The relief valves must be tested, dated, and tagged within one week prior to the hydrotest.

     (3) In addition to the pressure relieving device, a bleed valve must be provided to protect the pipeline from overpressure. The bleed valve must be readily accessible in case immediate depressurization is required.

     (4) The pressure testing manifold in the actual pressure test must be separately pressure tested to at least 1.2 times the pipeline test pressure but not less than the discharge pressure of the pump used for the pressure testing. After the test pressure is reached and before commencement of inspection of the pipeline, the isolation valve between the temporary test manifold and pipeline must be closed and the test pump disconnected.

     (5) A test chart or other recording method that shows that the pressure was maintained at the minimum test pressure throughout the entire test must be documented for all hydrostatic tests. A company representative must sign and date the test to certify the validity of the test. All equipment such as hoses, piping, and other equipment used to hydrostatically test the pipe must be rated for at least the target pressure. Each hydrostatic test of a pipeline must be documented to show:

     (a) Test date;

     (b) Signature of the certifying agent;
