PACP (Pipeline Assessment Certification Program) is the North American Standard for pipeline defect identification and assessment, providing standardization and consistency to the methods in which pipeline conditions are identified, evaluated and managed. The goal of PACP is to have pipeline system owners create a comprehensive database to properly identify, plan, prioritize, manage and renovate their pipelines based on condition evaluation. Developed in partnership with the Water Research Center (WRc), PACP is the North American adaptation of the United Kingdom's TV inspection coding system developed by the WRc. This coding system is the recognized standard in the United Kingdom and much of Europe and Asia. Certified Operator's follow the Code of Ethics as outlined by NASSCO.
