LEPA Membership
LEPA promotes responsible policies, safety excellence, and public support for liquids pipelines. LEPA represents pipelines transporting 97 percent of all hazardous liquids barrel miles reported to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). LEPA’s diverse membership includes large and small pipelines carrying crude oil, refined petroleum products, NGLs, and other liquids.
As the only association representing liquid pipelines on federal economic regulatory issues, LEPA advocates for responsible economic and commercial policies at the FERC and Congress. LEPA supports reasonable returns commensurate with risk and streamlined regulation appropriate for our competitive industry.
LEPA offers a series of employee education and training options for those employees that work on day-to-day FERC or commercial issues. LEPA holds an Annual Business Conference with strategic discussions, learning, industry networking, and business development. LEPA facilitates development of accounting resources for its members through the regularly updated Accounting Guidelines and provides accounting education for members at the annual FERC Form 6 Workshop. Finally, LEPA’s FERC Compliance Team and FERC Audits and Compliance Conference in Houston in February provide forums for pipeline company personnel to gain insights on regulatory compliance.
At PHMSA and in Congress, LEPA pursues responsible pipeline safety policies that focus on the areas of highest risk and the best use of safety dollars. Participation in LEPA enables members to learn about pipeline safety and operations and contribute to safety improvement activities of great interest to the Federal pipeline safety regulator, DOT PHMSA. LEPA conducts safety initiatives with the American Petroleum Institute (API), highlighted by the Pipeline Safety Excellence Strategic Plan. Our members conduct Leadership Roundtables on safety culture and lessons learned, and data-driven strategic planning on performance improvement initiatives. LEPA engages regularly with PHMSA and NTSB on these programs. LEPA also supports industry-wide pipeline safety research by the Pipeline Research Council International (PRCI).
LEPA’s experienced staff and network of company representatives identifies legislative, regulatory and legal policy risks that could affect pipeline owners and operators. LEPA reports to its members regularly and provides analysis and insights about these risks in executive and committee settings. LEPA provides leveraged advocacy for members on legislative, regulatory and legal issues, working with committees and teams.
All LEPA members designate a Principal Representative to LEPA, and one or more Alternate Representatives. People in this group receive invitations to three Pipeline Leadership Meetings per year featuring discussions on topical issues among pipeline executives and leaders in legal and operational matters and lots of opportunity for networking. Pipeline Leadership also receives weekly email updates and announcements about industry committees and teams to which they may nominate personnel.
Owners and operators of hazardous liquid pipelines in the U.S. are eligible for membership.
Your application will be forwarded to Andy Black, LEPA President and CEO, who will be in contact with you.
