Sec. 5. Upon application by any person who engages in transportation or who owns, operates, or leases pipeline facilities, the commission may, after notice and opportunity for public hearing, and under such terms and conditions and to such extent as the commission deems appropriate, issue an order waiving in whole or in part compliance with any standard or standards established under this chapter, if the commission determines that such waiver of compliance with such standard or standards is not inconsistent with pipeline safety. The commission shall state in such order its reasons for any such waiver and shall otherwise comply with the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 60101 et seq. with regard to such waiver.
Formerly: Acts 1971, P.L.84, SEC.1. As amended by P.L.118-2006, SEC.4.
