County of Harris — Pipeline Safety Interpretation

Page 1Mr. Richard P. Doss County Engineer County of Harris 1115 Congress Street Houston, Texas 77002 Dear Mr. Doss: This is in further response to your letter of February 27, 1978, to Mr. Robert F. Aubry, Chief, Southwest Region, concerning the crossing of county highways by gas pipelines. Your letter states that placement of line markers in accordance with 49 CFR 192.707 at highway crossings at locations other than highway right-of-way lines creates difficulties in mowing and in maintaining roadway shoulders. In this regard, you ask whether a County Order which, among other things, requires markers at right-of-way lines, qualifies under Section 192.707(b) as a "program for preventing interference with underground pipelines" that would exempt pipelines in Class 3 and Class 4 locations from the Section 192.707 line marking requirement. We have reviewed the County Order and find that it does not establish a "program" that would entitle gas pipelines to an exemption under Section 192.707(b). The "program" contemplated by Section 192.707(b) is one, such as the commonly referred to "one-call system," which serves as an alternative to line marking. A qualified program compels both pipeline operators and construction contractors to cooperate in carefully identifying the location of underground pipelines before construction activities may begin. In contrast, the County Order does not contain these features. It is written more to protect the highway against the possible hazards of a pipeline crossing than to protect the pipeline from damage by further construction activities at the crossing. Although the requirement for placement of line markers at right-of-way boundaries does offer protection against unintended interference, it is not a "program" which serves as an alternative to line marking within the meaning of Section 192.707(b). For most normal rights-of-way, it seems that placement of markers at each right-of-way should meet the requirements of Section 192.707. In some cases, however, markers at right-of-way lines may not meet the intent of Section 192.707 if they do not definitively identify the location of the DB C:\WP51\INTERPRT\192\707\78-05-24 1#

In such cases, we believe that your problem could be resolved if the County were to discuss it with pipeline operators and suggest ways to install markers which do not interfere with mowing and shoulder maintenance but still meet the line marking requirements of Section 192.707.

Doss, County Engineer Room 650 Family Law Center Building 1115 Congress Street Houston, Texas 77002 Dear Mr. Doss: Reference is made to your letter of February 27, 1978, regarding Section 192.707, Line Markers for Mains and Transmission Lines. In order to expedite this matter, your letter and the attachment has been forwarded to our Washington office with the request that a reply be forwarded directly to you. If this office can be of further assistance, please let me know. Sincerely, Robert F. Auby Chief, Southwest Region Office of Pipeline Safety Operations DB C:\WP51\INTERPRT\192\707\78-05-24 3#

Page 4Mr. Robert F. Aubry Chief Department of Transportation Southwest Region OPSO 6622 Hornwood Houston, Texas 77074 Dear Mr. Aubry: Recent review of D.O.T. Regulations for the Transportation of Natural and Other Gas by Pipeline, Parts 191 and 192, has made it necessary to request an opinion from your office. Certain problem areas exist between Section 192.707, Line Markers for Mains and Transmission Lines, and the pursuance of normal maintenance procedures by Harris County forces in the field. To be specific, the presence of line markers at locations other than right-of-way lines creates severe difficulties in mowing and in the maintenance of roadway shoulders. In the opinion of this office, the limitation of markers to right-of-way lines is both advantageous to Harris County and well within the realm of safe practice. This opinion is supported in the Utility Accommodation Policy of the Texas Department of Highways and Public Transportation, Sections 402 and 403, concerning markers for both high and low pressure pipelines, which has been incorporated into the Harris County Pipeline Regulations, a copy of which is enclosed. Both sets of regulations state that "the utility company shall place a readily identifiable and suitable marker at each right-of-way line where it is crossed by any high (low) pressure gas or liquid petroleum line except where marked by a vent.

Page 5A method of solving the maintenance problems of Harris County and full compliance with D.O.T. Regulations presents itself in Section 192.707 of Part 192, Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations. It is this method upon which our request for an opinion is based. It is clearly stated in Section 192.707(b) that "line markers are not required for buried mains and transmission lines (2) in Class 3 or Class 4 locations (i. i.) where a program for preventing interference with underground pipelines is established by la. Population density and land development indicated that at present almost all of Harris County qualifies as either a Class 3 or Class 4 location, as outlined in Section 192,5 of your regulations, and that this will certainly be the case in the near future. If this blanket qualification of Harris County as falling into Class 3 or Class 4 locations is coupled with "a program for preventing interference...established by law" in the form of the attached Harris County Pipeline Regulations, then a viable Solution to our problem exists. Please review this situation and render an opinion as to the validity of our interpretation of the intent of your regulations. Your assistance in this matter will be greatly appreciated. Very truly yours, Richard P. Doss County Engineer DB C:\WP51\INTERPRT\192\707\78-05-24 5#

On curb and gutter sections all high pressure pipelines that cross County roads shall be installed at least 24" below the bottom of the slab at the gutter; provided however, in particular instances where it is determined by the County Engineer that a greater depth is required, such pipeline shall be installed as directed by the County Engineer. In particular instances where it is determined by the County Engineer that a greater depth for a particular pipeline should be required due to the location or size of same, the type of product carried or other reason of public safety or necessity, such pipeline shall be laid at such greater depth as may be required by the County Engineer, but not to exceed the greater of the following depths: At least eight (8) feet below the crown of the road or four (4) feet below the bottom of the ditches on each side of such County road, unless by reason of proposed or anticipated changes in the grade of such County road or road ditches, the County Engineer should determine a greater depth is advisable. V. 1. Depth of Cover for Low Pressure Pipe Lines For low pressure gas lines the minimum depth of cover within the right-of- way and under roadway ditches, but outside the pavement structure, shall be twenty-four inches for either encased or u--encased installations. Exceptions may be authorized to permit existing lines to remain in place with a reduction of six inches in the above specified depth. Low pressure gas lines shall be a minimum of eighteen inches or one-half the diameter of the pipe, whichever is greater, beneath the bottom of the pavement structure. Where materials and other conditions justify, such as on existing lines to remain in place, a minimum depth under the pavement structure of twelve inches or one-half the diameter of the pipe, whichever is greater, may be permitted. As used herein, depth of lines is the depth to the tope of carrier pipe or casing as applicable. DB C:\WP51\INTERPRT\192\707\78-05-24 9#

Page 10IV. VII. VIII. Any damage whatsoever to any County road, roadbed, ditches, or the structure on or in the County road right-of-way caused by reason of the laying, constructing, maintaining and repairing of a pipeline, in, under, across or along such County road right-of-way shall be repaired immediately and restored to the condition that such County road, roadbed, ditches or other structures on or in such right-of-way was in before the damage took place, such repairing and restoration to be at the sole cost and expense of the owner or operator of such pipeline. Where a pipeline or pipelines are constructed parallel with a County road and where dirt is piled along the side of the trench cut for such pipeline, weep holes shall be dug through such pile of dirt in order that water may drain from roadbed and shoulders to the road ditches. Such weep holes shall be dug through such piles of dirt at intervals not to exceed two hundred (200) feet along such parallel pipeline construction, and at all swags or low places in the roadbed of such County road. Such weep holes shall be dug to a depth of six inches below the shoulder of such County road and shall be dug for a width of twelve (12) inches, and such weep holes shall be dug through the piles of dirt to the road ditches, or to such an elevation that the bottom of the weep holes will discharge its water into the road ditch. Such weep holes must be maintained free of obstruction until the pipeline is completed and the pipeline trench backfilled, tamped and leveled true to the original shoulder grade. All high pressure pipelines installed across Country roads shall be protected by a 6 inch thick reinforced concrete pad as follows: 1. On curb and gutter streets the pad is to extend from back of curb to the right-of-way line flush with finished ground level. 2. On roads with open ditch drainage the length of the pad is to be the with of the ditch bottom plus 2 feet on each side, and the bottom of the pad to be 6" above the top of the pipe. 3. All pads are to be the outside diameter of the pipe plus 4 feet in width. 4. Reinforcing is to be No. 4 bars at 6 inch centers both ways. DB C:\WP51\INTERPRT\192\707\78-05-24 10#

Page 11IX. X. XI. All pipelines laid, constructed, maintained and/or repaired parallel to and within the right-of-way of any County Road shall be laid, constructed, maintained, and repaired at a distance of not less than four (4) feet from the edge of the portion of road considered as normal traveling surface to the nearest edge of such pipeline; and when possible all pipelines shall laid, constructed, maintained and repaired in the area considered as the backslope of the ditch. These underground installations shall be at such depth so as to provide a minimum of 24" cover above top of pipe. On curb and gutter sections all installations paralleling the road shall be behind the curb and gutter. When installation of any pipeline within County right-of-way requires the digging of pits or trenching to such depth that the angle of repose created with respect to the edge of the normal traveling surface of the road exceeds 33m41'24" (1 ½: 1 slope), the owner and/or operator shall at its own expense furnish the County Engineer with soil testing laboratory reports indicating if sheeting is required to safely preserve the road. If reports indicate sheeting is required at various areas or for the entire length of trench, it shall be installed by owner and/or operator at no expense to Harris county. Spacing for soil tests shall be at 1000' intervals unless soil indicated tests should be made at shorter intervals or as directed by the County Engineer. The County Engineer will maintain an list of testing laboratories which he has approved and furnish a copy thereof to any person requesting same. At least forty-eight (48) hours before commencing construction of any pipeline in, under, across or along any County road, notice of the time such construction shall commence shall be given to the County Engineer of Harris County in order that he might supervise and inspect such construction; provided however, that in cases of emergency requiring immediate maintenance or repair of any pipeline, notice should be given to the County Engineer as soon as possible, and when planned major maintenance is proposed, notification shall be given as outlined under Section 1. Backfilling operations shall be performed as soon as possible. Back fill material shall be free from large or frozen lumps, wood or other extraneous material. The backfill shall be placed in uniform layers not to exceed 10 DB C:\WP51\INTERPRT\192\707\78-05-24 11#

Page 12inches depth (loose measurement) and each layer thoroughly compacted to the density of the surrounding area and to the satisfaction of the County Engineer. However, if any pit or trench lies outside the angle of repose defined in Section VIII, backfilling operations may be preformed by the equipment method so long as compaction is to density of surrounding area. Operation of equipment on the improved surface of any County road will not be permitted, except in an instance whereby the laying, constructing, maintaining, and repairing of pipelines cannot be accomplished by any other method, and in this event all such equipment shall be equipped with rubber tires, flat street pads or other similar means to assure complete protection of the improved surface of the road. These specifications govern on matters concerning accommodation, location and methods for the installation, adjustment, relocation and maintenance of utilities on right-of-way, it does not alter current policies pertaining to authority for their installation nor determination of financial responsibilities for placement or adjustment thereof. Where industry or governmental codes, orders or laws require utilities to provide a higher degree of protection than provided herein, the higher degree of protection shall prevail. Pipe Design Pipe must be designed with sufficient wall thickness, or must be installed with adequate protection, to withstand anticipated external pressures and loads that will be imposed on the pipe after installation. (a) Design formula for steel pipe The design pressure for steel pipe is determined in accordance with the following formula: 2St P = D XFXEXT P = Design pressure in pounds per square inch gauge. S = Yield strength in pounds per square inch determined in accordance with Sec. 192.107. DB C:\WP51\INTERPRT\192\707\78-05-24 12#
