Will YOU be in compliance?
On February 2, 2010 Gas Distribution Pipeline Integrity Management (DIMP) will go into effect. Distribution operators will have 18 months (until August 2, 2011) to develop and implement an Integrity Management Program. A complete program includes having measures in place to address specific risks to the system, monitoring measures in place that capture the overall effectiveness of the IM Program and a written IM plan that addresses the following 7 elements of DIMP:
 Knowledge and understanding of the distribution system- Identify threats to the system
- Evaluate these threats and rank the associated risk
- Identify and implement measures to mitigate these risks
- Measure the performance, monitor results and evaluate the effectiveness of risk mitigation measures
- Periodic evaluation & improvement
- Reporting of these results
In response to the new DIMP rule, EMS is offering consulting and field services to assist operators in achieving compliance with the rule and providing the services necessary to fully implement the Integrity Management Program within the allotted timeframe.
