Pipeline safety assessments sunset establishment
This bill reduces annual safety assessments for railroads and pipelines from $4 million to $2.8 million per year. It changes how the assessment is split: railroads pay 70% of the total (based on route miles in Minnesota), while pipeline companies pay 30% (based on gallons of hazardous substances transported). The bill also requires companies involved in significant incidents to cover state/local costs for post-incident reviews. These changes take effect January 1, 2027, and apply to railroad and pipeline operators in Minnesota.
