PHMSA Accomplishments
• Katrina - Immediately deployed Acting Administrator Brigham McCown to the FEMA Operations Center in Mississippi
• Mr. McCown and PHMSA HQ Staff worked with numerous other Government Agencies (FHWA, FMCA, FAA, state & local) to Streamline logistics to restore pipeline operations
![Page 30: U. S. Department of Transportation Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/56813c10550346895da58578/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
PHMSA Accomplishments
• PHMSA Regional Staff worked closely with pipeline operators to identify needs, communicate system status, and provide regulatory support
• Deployed an individual for a 2 month detail on a FEMA ESF-14 (Emergency Support Function) Long Term Community Recovery and Mitigation Team (promote economic recovery)
![Page 31: U. S. Department of Transportation Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/56813c10550346895da58578/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
PHMSA Accomplishments

Lessons Learned
• Impact goes beyond immediately affected areaWhen LA and MS stop pumping, gasoline and diesel
the North East quickly runs low and prices spike
• PHMSA can efficiently Coordinate Efforts with other Government AgenciesWe now have better relationships with other Agencies
and will perform better in future crisis situations
![Page 33: U. S. Department of Transportation Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/56813c10550346895da58578/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Lessons Learned
PHMSA Performed Well but Could Do Better • Hurricane Preparedness Plans have been
developed by PHMSA• Coastal Area Pipeline Maps and Operator
Contact Information is Readily Available• Availability of 4 Wheel Drive Vehicles to
get PHMSA Personnel to Disaster Areas• NIMS Training for Regional Personnel
