Does a pipeline operator or construction company have to notify the RRC before beginning construction on a pipeline?
Yes, the Railroad Commission must be notified when the construction involves a pipeline longer than one mile. Commission rules require the operator to file a pre-construction report 30 days prior to the commencement of construction. However, new construction on natural gas distribution systems of pipelines less than five miles are exempt from this reporting requirement.
