What it does
The Pipeline Cybersecurity Preparedness Act would require the Secretary of Energy to establish a program focused on improving the physical and cybersecurity of natural gas and hazardous liquid pipelines, as well as liquefied natural gas facilities. The program would enhance coordination among federal agencies, states, and the energy sector, lead coordinated responses to security incidents, develop voluntary cybersecurity technologies, conduct pilot projects, create workforce training curricula, and provide technical tools for sector-wide security assessments. The bill explicitly states it does not alter the authority of other federal agencies over pipeline security.
