The Public Utilities Commission is proposing to amend Or. Admin. R.860-031-0035 regarding gas storage and pipeline safety. Changes would increase the maximum civil penalty from $10,000 to $200,000 per event per day, and increase the maximum penalty for a series of failures from $500,000 to $2,000,000. The deadline for comment is July 22, 2015. See http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/pages/rules/bulletin/0715_bulletin/0715_rulemaking_bulletin.html.
