Passage 1[Federal Register Volume 63, Number 138 (Monday, July 20, 1998)] [Rules and Regulations] [Page 38758] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 98-18911] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Research and Special Programs Administration [Docket No. RSPA-97-2251; Amdt Nos. 190-8; 191-13; 192-84; 193-15; 194- 2; 195-61; 198-3; 199-17] RIN 2137-AD03 Pipeline Safety: Periodic Updates to Pipeline Safety Regulations (1997) AGENCY: Research and Special Programs Administration (RSPA), DOT. ACTION: Corrections to direct final rule. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This document makes minor corrections to a direct final rule titled, ``Periodic Updates to the Pipeline Safety Regulations'' (63 FR 7721), published on February 17, 1998. The final rule updated references to voluntary specifications and standards incorporated by reference, and made various clarifications and grammatical corrections. DATES: This correction is effective July 20, 1998. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Eben M. Wyman, (202) 366-0918, or by e-mail ([email protected]), regarding the subject matter of this Notice; or the Dockets Unit, (202) 366-4453, for copies of this final rule or other material in the docket. Further information can be obtained by accessing OPS' Internet Home Page at: ops.dot.gov. 1. The direct final rule incorrectly listed the amendment numbers for Part 190 and Part 192 at the beginning of the direct final rule. The correct amendment numbers are 190-8, and 192-84. 2. In updating the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Designation 2513, the direct final rule inadvertently removed the reference to the ASTM 2513-87 edition for Sec. 192.63(a)(1). This document corrects this reference to reflect the appropriate standard, ASTM Designation D 2513 ``Standard Specification of Thermoplastic Gas Pressure Pipe, Tubing and Fittings'' (D 2513-87 edition for Sec. 192.63(a)(1), otherwise D 2513-96a). RSPA regrets any confusion this error may have caused.#

Passage 2Accordingly, the publication on February 17, 1998, of the final rule (63 FR 7721) is corrected as follows: 1. On page 7721, in the first column, in the docket number, amendment number ``190-7'' is corrected to read ``190-8'' and amendment number ``172-83'' is corrected to read ``192-84.'' 2. On page 7723, in the second column, under paragraph C (10), the words ``D 2513-87 edition for Sec. 192.63(a)(1), otherwise'' are added before ``D 2513-96a.'' Issued in Washington, DC, on July 10, 1998. Kelley S. Coyner, Deputy Administrator. [FR Doc. 98-18911 Filed 7-17-98; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910-60-U#
