Larsen: Pipeline Safety is Critical to Protecting Communities in Northwest Washington and Across the United States

By Representative Rick Larsen, US House of Representatives (March 10, 2023)

“The PIPES Act of 2020 provides funding for the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) through 2023 to fulfill its mission of protecting people and the environment by advancing the safe transportation of energy and other hazardous materials. The PIPES Act of 2020 was included in the bipartisan Fiscal Year 2021 omnibus spending package, which was signed into law in December 2020. The House will consider reauthorization of the PIPES Act of 2020 in the 118th Congress.”
