| (a) Authority having jurisdiction. As pertains to LNG
activities in Texas, the phrase "authority having jurisdiction" defined
in NFPA 59A §3.2 and referenced in other NFPA publications shall
be the Railroad Commission of Texas or any of its divisions or employees,
except with respect to the definitions of "approved," "labeled," and
"listed" in NFPA 59A §3.2.
(b) Engineering. The Commission does not adopt language
in any NFPA 59A rule such as "sound engineering practice," "accepted
engineering practice," "good engineering practice," "sound engineering
design," or similar language that might be understood to mean or refer
to the practice of engineering. The omission of a specific NFPA 59A
rule or other NFPA pamphlets containing such language from the exceptions
listed in this subchapter is inadvertent and shall not be read or
understood as requiring, allowing, or approving the unlicensed practice
of engineering or any other professional occupation requiring a license.
