Roundtable

Discussion: AMPP Guide 21569 and Related Federal Regulations

This roundtable will explore key elements of AMPP Guide 21569 and its alignment with critical U.S. pipeline safety regulations. Following brief introductions and background context, participants will engage in an interactive discussion of how the guide supports compliance with 49 CFR §192.473 (External Corrosion Control) and §192.465 (Monitoring). The conversation will also address requirements in §192.319 and §192.461 related to pipeline installation and protective measures, with shorter overviews of the former §192.478 considerations for internal corrosion, as well as §192.714 and §192.485 regarding repair and remediation. Attendees will gain insights from peers on applying the guide in practice, interpreting regulatory expectations, and navigating implementation challenges across diverse operating environments.
