APPS’ PHMSA course emphasizes the “traceable, verifiable, and complete” data collection requirement and reviews several specific federal regulations that impact pipeline survey work. The class makes the point that although a surveyor does not need to recite federal regulations, the pipeline owner/operators who employ them do and
adhere to them strictly. Therefore, the more surveyors and survey technicians understand these requirements, the better surveyor they are and the more valuable to owner/operators they become.
