§ 37-2-131 — Supplemental safety jurisdiction of commission

(a) The commission shall have regulatory safety
jurisdiction over any "intrastate gas pipeline facility" as
defined under the Pipeline Inspection, Protection, Enforcement,
and Safety Act of 2006, 49 U.S.C. § 60101, et seq., as amended,
for the sole purpose of implementing the safety standards and
practices of the federal act to such intrastate gas pipeline
facility. This jurisdiction shall not apply to an "intrastate
gas pipeline facility" which is otherwise subject to federal
regulatory jurisdiction for safety purposes. The commission is
authorized under this section to implement such safety standards
and practices only to the extent the secretary of transportation
is so authorized under the Pipeline Inspection, Protection,
Enforcement, and Safety Act of 2006. The commission's
jurisdiction under this section shall only apply where the
secretary of transportation has delegated, or otherwise
authorized, the state of Wyoming to act on his behalf, and the
state of Wyoming has formally accepted the delegation or other
authorization prior to the exercise of the jurisdiction by the
commission.
(b) The commission shall have safety jurisdiction over any
new or existing electrical lines used by the owner to transmit
electricity which is generated by the owner for resale, and
which are located upon property not exclusively controlled by
the owner of the line for the purpose of enforcement of the
safety requirements of the National Electrical Safety Code and
those safety standards adopted by the commission. This section
shall not apply to any incorporated or chartered city or town
established under Wyoming law or joint powers board created
under the Wyoming Joint Powers Act.
