Planning Near Transmission Pipelines
Most pipelines were put in rural areas
![Page 4: Informed Planning Near Pipelines Brought to you by a Community Technical Assistance Grant from the.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062712/56649c925503460f9494d051/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
But now growth is encroaching on many pipelines
![Page 5: Informed Planning Near Pipelines Brought to you by a Community Technical Assistance Grant from the.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062712/56649c925503460f9494d051/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
This creates an increased risk that communities should consider when planning
![Page 6: Informed Planning Near Pipelines Brought to you by a Community Technical Assistance Grant from the.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062712/56649c925503460f9494d051/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
How much risk is there?
• The chance of a pipeline failing in any one specific place is extremely small, so the risk is very very small
• But if a pipeline does fail the consequences can be catastrophic
Each pipeline has different risks, and should be considered separately

National Pipeline Mapping System
Way for the public and local government to know about pipelines near by
Pipeline GIS Layers are available:
http://www.npms.phmsa.dot.gov/
or
WUTC at (360) 664-1219
![Page 23: Informed Planning Near Pipelines Brought to you by a Community Technical Assistance Grant from the.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062712/56649c925503460f9494d051/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Two ways to protect communities
• Protect the pipelines from
damage so they stay safe
• Protect people near pipelines in case something happens
![Page 24: Informed Planning Near Pipelines Brought to you by a Community Technical Assistance Grant from the.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062712/56649c925503460f9494d051/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Consultation Zone
A local government may determine the appropriate width of the consultation zone based on its own research and discussions with pipeline operators and other local government agencies.
![Page 25: Informed Planning Near Pipelines Brought to you by a Community Technical Assistance Grant from the.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062712/56649c925503460f9494d051/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Early Consultation
can be a Win, Win,
Win

The Bottom Line - Better planning can help ensure safe fuel transport and
avoid tragedies
