Stephan, Chair Agency: Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission Address: 101 West Washington Street, Suite 1500 East City/State/Zip: Indianapolis, Indiana 46204-3407 60105(a): Yes 60106(a): No Interstate Agent: No INSTRUCTIONS: Complete this evaluation in accordance with the Procedures for Evaluating State Pipeline Safety Program. The evaluation should generally reflect state program performance during CY 2015 (not the status of performance at the time of the evaluation). All items for which criteria have not been established should be answered based on the PHMSA representative's judgment. A deficiency in any one part of a multiple part question should be scored as needs improvement. Determine the answer to the question then select the appropriate point value. If a state receives less then the maximum points, include a brief explanation in the space provided for general comments/regional observations. If a question is not applicable to a state, select NA. Please ensure all responses are COMPLETE and ACCURATE, and OBJECTIVELY reflect state program performance. Increasing emphasis is being placed on performance. This evaluation together with selected factors reported in the state's annual progress report attachments provide the basis for determining the state's pipeline safety grant allocation. Field Inspection (PART G): The field inspection form used will allow different areas of emphasis to be considered for each question. Question 13 is provided for scoring field observation areas. In completing PART G, the PHMSA representative should include a written summary which thoroughly documents the inspection.

IN NG Program Evaluation, 2015, page 4Evaluator Notes: A9. Yes. Attachment 10 is a well-developed report. 10 General Comments: Info Only Info Only Info Only = No Points Evaluator Notes: A10. Yes. The IURC has done a good job with documenting and tracking its inspection activities for annual reporting purposes. The 2015 Annual Progress Report was complete and accurate. With that said, the effort involved with tracking these activities within the current IT systems is Herculean. The replacement Pipeline Safety Information System (expected to be launched in 2016) should greatly enhance the IURC's abilities in this regard. Also, in Attachment 10 of the Annual Progress Report (Performance and Damage Prevention Questions), it is clear the IURC has a very strong Damage Prevention Program in place for which it should be commended.

Did State complete all applicable portions of inspection forms? Chapter 5.1 Yes = 2 No = 0 Needs Improvement = 1 Evaluator Notes: C7. NI, 1 OF 2 PTS. Discovered that Distribution Standard Inspections are NOT being inspected for welding procedures for many small LDCs. We discussed strategies for rectifying the problem. It was also noted that the Standard Inspection has been broken into modules and there appears to be inadequate tracking of all of the modules to ensure that no portion of the standard inspection falls outside of the 5-year maximum inspection interval. IURC uses the Federal Forms and addendum questions as the basis for its State Forms. I noted that some inspections are spread out over multiple years, which is a problem inherent in using a module system for inspections. I advised IURC that it is likely that portions of the inspection will be missed and fall out of the 5 yr inspection period if that practice continues. 8 Did the state review operator procedures for determining if exposed cast iron pipe was examined for evidence of graphitization and if necessary remedial action was taken?

IN NG Program Evaluation, 2015, page 11Info Only = No Points Evaluator Notes: C27. Yes. The IURC has in place a very sophisticated risk model along with the associated tools for tracking and scheduling inspections. The overall number of inspection days completed by the IURC was satisfactory based on the number of dedicated pipeline safety inspection staff and the number of operators, miles of main and number of services within the state. The IURC should develop a better system for recording, tracking, organizing and consolidating individual inspection documents. This should be addressed with the new Pipeline Safety Information System.

Yes, the IURC is actively engaged with the various Damage Prevention Councils that exist throughout the state. They are also actively engaged with the state's Underground Plant Protection Advisory Committee and are aggressively enforcing the state's One-Call Law. 4 Has the agency or another organization within the state collected data and evaluated trends on the number of pipeline damages per 1,000 locate requests? (This can include DIRT and other data shared and reviewed by the pipeline safety program) Yes = 2 No = 0 Needs Improvement = 1 Evaluator Notes: F4. Yes, 'hits per thousand' is rolled into the risk management model. 2 2 5 General Comments: Info Only Info Only Info Only = No Points Evaluator Notes: F5. In Indiana, fines collected for One-Call violations are dedicated to damage prevention efforts. This is accomplished by developing programs related to Public Awareness, Training and Incentives designed to reduce excavation damages. This is clearly an area of high interest in Indiana. The IURC has also developed a Damage Prevention specific Inspection Form and is doing a good job holding all operators accountable for damage prevention through inspections and enforcement of the state's One-Call law. IURC supports numerous small fines to encourage compliance with Damage Prevention; as such it has issued fines 1.9M$, collected 1.1M$, from 669 individual penalties since inception in 2012; for an average of $1644 collected/penalty.
