Damage Prevention Council Of Texas

Damage Prevention Council Of Texas is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization headquartered in Kaufman, Texas that has been registered in SAM.gov since March 2020. The organization specializes in pipeline safety awareness and training, serving as a critical resource for communities and stakeholders in Texas regarding hazard prevention and occupational safety. Through its federal grant awards, the organization develops and delivers educational content and outreach initiatives focused on protecting workers and communities from pipeline-related incidents and occupational hazards.

Damage Prevention Council Of Texas has received multiple prime federal grant awards totaling $400,000 across two federal agencies since 2021. The organization has been the primary recipient of four Technical Assistance Grants (CFDA 20.710) from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), awarded in fiscal years 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2022, each valued at $100,000. These grants have funded the development of training videos, in-person training events including classroom sessions and outdoor demonstrations, marketing campaigns, and online e-learning platforms focused on pipeline safety awareness. Notably, one grant specifically addressed National Transportation Safety Board recommendations stemming from the 2018 Corpus Christi pipeline accident, resulting in enhanced online safety training for marine stakeholders working near underwater pipelines. Additionally, Damage Prevention Council Of Texas received a Susan Harwood Training Grant in 2021 from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), supporting the development of free safety and health training programs for hard-to-reach and at-risk workers. The organization has not engaged subrecipients in these grants and operates as a direct grant recipient without federal contract vehicle awardees or prime contract partners.
