(4) Each gas pipeline company must record and maintain records of the actual value of any required reads, tests, surveys or inspections performed.

Examples of the values to be recorded include, but are not limited to, pipe to soil potential reads, rectifier reads, pressure test levels, and combustible gas indicator reads.
