Overview
This bill requires the California Energy Commission to identify and categorize pipelines as ‘reportable pipelines’ starting in 2027. Reportable pipelines would then be subject to monthly reporting of operating volumes, crude oil delivery, and capacity information. The goal is to improve the state’s ability to monitor and manage the supply of transportation fuels, ensuring safe operations and preventing supply shortages. The bill also extends existing civil penalties to cover failures to report information about these pipelines and allows operators to request confidentiality for submitted data.

- Requires refiners to report planned maintenance and turnarounds to the commission.
