Comment from National Association of Pipeline Safety Representatives (NAPSR)

Summary: The National Association of Pipeline Safety Representatives (NAPSR), an organization of state agency pipeline safety managers, supports the proposed rule to extend the timeframe for making rupture-mitigation valves operational from 14 to 90 days. They argue that the current 14-day window is too narrow for proper installation and testing, and that a 90-day period allows for necessary logistical steps without compromising safety.
