Sec. 6. Any person who engages in transportation or who owns, operates, or leases pipeline facilities shall:
(a) Comply with this chapter and all safety standards established pursuant to this chapter.
(b) Inspect such pipeline facilities and report the findings to the division as prescribed by standards established pursuant to this chapter.
(c) File with the division a plan for operation and maintenance of such pipeline facilities owned, operated, or leased by such person, and any change in such plan, as prescribed by rules established pursuant to this chapter. Such plan shall be subject to approval by the division, and if at any time such plan is determined by the division to be inadequate to achieve safe operation, upon recommendation by the director, the commission shall, after notice and opportunity for public hearing, order the plan revised. Any plan required under this chapter shall be practicable and designed to meet the need for pipeline safety.
(d) Establish and maintain such records, make such reports, and provide such information as the division, acting through the commission, may reasonably require to enable it to determine whether such person has acted or is acting in compliance with this chapter and the standards established under this chapter.
Each person upon request of an authorized representative of the division shall permit such representative access and entry for the purpose of inspection of such pipeline facilities, and inspection of books, papers, records, and documents (including the right to copy the same) as is reasonably necessary in order to determine whether such person has acted or is acting in compliance with this chapter and the standards established pursuant to this chapter.
