Summary

The bill amends Louisiana law to mandate that every hazardous liquid pipeline include a telephone number on its required signage and line markers, and to require operators to certify each year that the number is active and answered at all times. Operators who fail to keep the information up‑to‑date face penalties under existing statutes, and the requirement cannot be waived. The measure aims to improve emergency response and public safety.
