3 Meaning of validation
A validation of a proposal for a pipeline under these
Regulations is a statement in writing by an independent validator that:
the proposal is suitable for the purposes for which it is proposed;
if the proposal includes a modification of the pipeline that may affect the integrity of the pipeline – there are reasonable grounds to believe that the modification will result in the pipeline being suitable for the purposes for which it is to be used;
the proposal is consistent with the pipeline management system description in the pipeline management plan in force for the pipeline; and
the proposal complies with any Australian Standards or international standards that are specified in the pipeline management plan as applying to that kind of proposal.
A validation is to cover the scope of the validation agreed under these Regulations.
