Certification of safety case for pipeline facility
27 Certification of safety case for pipeline facility
A licensee for a pipeline facility must obtain an independent certification of a safety case before submitting that safety case to the Director.
The certification of a safety case must assess the design, construction, commissioning or operation of a pipeline facility to which the safety case relates and any other matters relating to the fitness of the pipeline facility.
The licensee must establish to the satisfaction of the Director that each person undertaking the certification of a safety case or part of a safety case has the necessary competence and ability, and access to information, to form an independent opinion on the validity of a safety case or part of a safety case.
The Director is not required to consider a safety case until the independent certification is provided.
