To establish an Office of Public Engagement within the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration.

HR 5666 would create a new Office of Public Engagement within the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA). The office would proactively engage with the public and pipeline stakeholders to promote safety programs, provide technical expertise, raise awareness about pipeline safety, and answer public inquiries. It requires $12 million annually (2024-2027) for establishment and operations. The bill directly affects PHMSA's public communication and outreach efforts regarding pipeline safety.
