LAC 33:V.30171. Used Pipe [49 CFR 195.114]

A. Any used pipe installed in a pipeline system must comply with §30169.A.1-2 and the following. [49 CFR 195.114] 1. The pipe must be of a known specification and the seam joint factor must be determined in accordance with §30161.E. If the specified minimum yield strength or the wall thickness is not known, it is determined in accordance with §30161.B or §30161.C as appropriate. [49 CFR 195.114(a)] 2. There may not be any: [49 CFR 195.114(b)] a. buckles; [49 CFR 195.114(b)(1)] b. cracks, grooves, gouges, dents, or other surface defects that exceed the maximum depth of such a defect permitted by the specification to which the pipe was manufactured; or [49 CFR 195.114(b)(2)] c. corroded areas where the remaining wall thickness is less than the minimum thickness required by the tolerances in the specification to which the pipe was manufactured. However, pipe that does not meet the requirements of §30171.A.2.c may be used if the operating pressure is reduced to be commensurate with the remaining wall thickness. [49 CFR 195.114(b)(3)]
