      Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:

      We welcome the opportunity to be here today to respond to the

questions raised in your May 3,  1984, and February 19, 1985,

letters regarding various aspects of the Department  of Transporta-

tion's Pipeline Safety Program.  Specifically,  you asked us to (1)

critique the Department's ideas on the potential  realignment of

federal-state responsibilities,  (2) identify improvements which

should be made in the pipeline safety data  systems, (3) identify

areas which the Department should emphasize  in its pipeline safety

research, (4) identify ways to more effectively  utilize the

expertise of the pipeline safety technical  advisory committees,
