The work of the PLCA is guided by an 11-member Board of Directors. Pursuant to the PLCA Bylaws, the term of office for each elected Director is two years.  The term of office for the President is three years (the year s/he serves, as well as two years thereafter).  The term of office for all other Officer positions (1st Vice President, 2nd Vice President, & Treasurer) is one year. 

The election for the Board of Directors is typically held each year at the PLCA’s Annual Convention.  The PLCA Nominating Committee is responsible for nominating individuals for all vacant Officer and Director slots.  PLCA Regular Members elect the Association’s Officers and Directors.  

The Board of Directors meets at least three times throughout the year including at the Spring PLCA Leadership Retreat and a Fall meeting held in conjunction with the National Pipe Line Conference.
