Vision and Mission
The vision of the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety
Administration’s (PHMSA) Pipeline Safety Research Program is
to support PHMSA’s mission which is “to protect people
and the environment from the risks inherent in transportation of
hazardous materials by pipeline and other modes of
transportation.”
The mission of PHMSA’s Pipeline Safety Research Program is to
sponsor research and development projects focused on providing
near-term solutions that will improve the safety, reduce
environmental impact, and enhance the reliability of the
Nation’s pipeline transportation system.
This Research Strategic Plan aims to convey many messages but mainly
that we:
-
Employ a coordinated and collaborative approach to address mutual
pipeline challenges
-
Help remove technical and sometimes regulatory barriers on a given
challenge
- Measure our research results, outputs and impacts
-
Are transparent virtually posting all program processes, actions
and products on our program website.
