AGA files joint comments on NTSB ANPRM on Incident Investigation Authority
AGA signed on to cross-industry comments filed to NTSB’s Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) seeking input on incident investigation authority as it relates to the definition of “substantial property damage” and “significant injury to the environment.”
The Associations recommended that the NTSB:
(1) should not unnecessarily limit its authority by adopting specific definitions or thresholds for these terms.
(2) avoid unintended impacts, including overburdening its resources and impacting PHMSA’s ability to investigate.
Full comments can be found on Docket NTSB-2023-0008.
