Summary

PHMSA issued Special Permit PHMSA-2025-0013 to AGT on April 2, 2025, establishing final conditions authorizing the use of composite pipe in hazardous materials service. The permit grants specific regulatory deviations from standard PHMSA requirements for composite piping systems. Regulated entities should review the permit conditions to determine applicability to similar operations.

What changed

PHMSA issued Special Permit PHMSA-2025-0013 to AGT for composite pipe systems, with final conditions attached on April 2, 2025. The special permit authorizes deviations from standard hazardous materials transportation regulations under 49 CFR applicable to composite piping. This represents PHMSA's evaluation that alternative safety approaches satisfy regulatory requirements for this specific application.

Affected entities should obtain and review the complete permit conditions document (attachment_1.pdf). Any company seeking similar authorization for composite pipe must submit a separate special permit application to PHMSA.
