PHMSA is planning a LPAC meeting to discuss a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on July 23, 2020. The meeting will take place virtually. The LPAC will meet to discuss the NPRM titled: "Valve Installation and Minimum Rupture Detection Standards," which was published on February 6, 2020.

The GPAC meeting will take place on 07/22/2020. To register for the GPAC meeting go to: https://primis.phmsa.dot.gov/meetings/MtgHome.mtg?mtg=149.

GPAC and LPAC are statutorily mandated advisory committees that provide PHMSA and the Secretary of Transportation with recommendations on proposed standards for the transportation of natural gas or hazardous liquids by pipeline. These committees were established in accordance with 49 U.S.C. — 60115 and the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as amended (5 U.S.C. App. 2), to review PHMSA's regulatory initiatives and determine their technical feasibility, reasonableness, cost-effectiveness, and practicability. Each committee consists of 15 members, with membership evenly divided among federal and state governments, regulated industry, and the general public.

These meetings will be open to the public. PHMSA will provide members of the public with opportunities to make a statement during the course of these meetings. Additionally, PHMSA will record the meetings and post a record to the public docket at https://www.regulations.gov. PHMSA is committed to providing all participants with equal access to these meetings.
