Safety, interpretations of FERC Opinion 154-B, and a variation on the theme of oil pipeline deregulation were the significant developments affecting oil pipelines in the year 1991 and early 1992. The introduction of amendments to the Hazardous Liquid Pipeline Safety Act will result in Department of Transportation Regulations concerning in-depth reporting requirements of pipeline incidents and more frequent testing procedures to insure the safety of the pipeline. In November, 1991, Congressman Synar introduced a bill to streamline Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) procedures concerning oil pipelines.
