72 FR 55678 - Hazardous Materials Regulations: Minor Editorial Corrections and Clarifications | Regulus

Passage 1[Federal Register Volume 72, Number 189 (Monday, October 1, 2007)] [Rules and Regulations] [Pages 55678-55697] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: E7-19138] ======================================================================= ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration 49 CFR Parts 105, 106, 107, 110, 130, 171, 172, 173, 174, 175, 176, 178, 179 and 180 [Docket No. PHMSA-2007-29245 (HM-244)] RIN 2137-AE30 Hazardous Materials Regulations: Minor Editorial Corrections and Clarifications AGENCY: Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), DOT. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This final rule corrects editorial errors, makes minor regulatory changes and, in response to requests for clarification, improves the clarity of certain provisions in the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR). The intended effect of this rule is to enhance the accuracy and reduce misunderstandings of the regulations. The amendments contained in this rule are non-substantive changes that do not impose new requirements. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dirk Der Kinderen, Office of Hazardous Materials Standards, (202) 366-8553, PHMSA, East Building, PHH-10, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC 20590.#

Passage 2PHMSA annually reviews the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR parts 171-180) to identify typographical and other errors, outdated addresses or other contact information, and similar errors. In this final rule, we are correcting typographical errors; incorrect CFR references and citations; inaccurate office names; inconsistent use of terminology; misstatements of certain regulatory requirements; and inadvertent omissions of information. In addition, this final rule revises the address for PHMSA to indicate the new location for the headquarters office. Because these amendments do not impose new requirements, notice and public comment procedures are unnecessary. By making these amendments effective without the customary 30-day delay following publication, the changes will appear in the next revision of Title 49. The following is a summary by section of the major changes made in this final rule. The summary does not include minor editorial corrections such as punctuation errors, or similar minor revisions. Section 107.608 This section contains general requirements for registration. In paragraph (a), we are removing the reference to Sec. 107.616(d) for consistency with revisions made in HM-208F (72 FR 24536; May 3, 2007). The HM-208F final rule removed paragraph (d) of Sec. 107.616.#

Passage 3Section 171.6 This section lists approved collections of information required under the HMR. In the table in paragraph (b)(2), in the third column for OMB control number 2137-0557, we are removing the reference citations to Sec. Sec. 178.270-3 and 178.270-13. Section 178.270-3 was removed in an earlier rulemaking, and we are removing Sec. 178.270-13, which addresses testing requirements for IM 101 and 102 specification portable tanks in this final rule. As prescribed in Sec. 173.32(c)(2), the manufacture of these portable tanks is no longer authorized. Section 171.7 This section lists material incorporated by reference into the HMR. In paragraph (a)(3), in the second column of the table of material incorporated by reference, for the entry ASME Code, Sections II (Parts A and B), V, VIII (Division 1), and IX, we are removing the reference citations, Sec. Sec. 178.270-2 through 178.272-1, which contain requirements applicable to the manufacture of IM 101 and 102 portable tanks, because the manufacture of these portable tanks is no longer authorized. Additionally, we are updating a reference citation for the use of the UN Recommendations. Section 171.8 This section lists definitions for terms used in the HMR. In the definition for ``Administrator,'' we are correcting the office name ``Research and Special Programs Administration'' to read ``Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration.'' In the#

Passage 4definition for ``Shipping paper,'' we are removing the references to ``Sec. Sec. 172.202, 172.203 and 172.204'' to clarify that shipping papers must be prepared in accordance with the requirements in subpart C of part 172. Section 171.14 This section provides transitional provisions for recently adopted regulatory changes. In paragraph (d)(6), we are correcting the citation ``172.202(a)(6)'' to read ``172.202(a)(7)'' for consistency with revisions made to Sec. 173.202(a) in a final rule published under docket number HM-215I (71 FR 78596; December 29, 2006). Section 171.15 This section contains telephonic notification requirements for certain hazardous materials transportation incidents. In paragraph (b)(3), we are correcting the telephone report requirements for infectious substances by removing the term ``diagnostic specimen'' since that term no longer appears in the HMR. Section 171.23 This section contains requirements for specific materials and packages transported under the international standards. In paragraph (b)(5), we are correcting requirements by removing an inaccurate exception for Class 7 (radioactive) materials included in a final rule published under docket number HM-215F (72 FR 25162; May 3, 2007).#

Passage 5Section 172.101--The Hazardous Materials Table (HMT) We are removing the entries ``Helium-oxygen mixture, see Rare gases and oxygen mixtures,'' ``Nitrogen, mixtures with rare gases, see Rare gases and nitrogen mixtures,'' and ``Oxygen, mixtures with rare gases, see Rare gases and oxygen mixtures.'' These entries are being removed for consistency with revisions made in the final rule published under docket number HM-215I. We are correcting entries in the HMT as follows: For the entries ``Ammonia, anhydrous,'' Division 2.3, UN1005, ``Ammonia solution, relative density less than 0.880 at 15 degrees C in water, with more than 50 percent ammonia,'' Division 2.3, UN3318, and ``Ammonia solutions, relative density less than 0.880 at 15 degrees C in water, with more than 35 percent but not more than 50 percent ammonia,'' UN2073, we are correcting Column (7) by adding ``N87.'' Special provision ``N87'' was inadvertently omitted. This correction appears as a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking. For the entry ``Articles, explosive, n.o.s.,'' UN0353, in Column (6), we are correcting the label code ``1.4GD'' to read ``1.4G.'' For the entry ``Articles, explosive, n.o.s.,'' UN0467I, in Column (4), we are correcting the identification number to read ``UN0467'' and in Column (5), we are correcting the packing group to read ``II.'' This correction appears as a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking. For the entry ``Caesium hydroxide solution,'' UN2681, PG III, in Column (8B), we are correcting the section reference to read ``203.'' For the entry ``Contrivances, water-activated, with burster, expelling charge or propelling charge,'' UN0248, we are correcting Column (1) by adding ``G.'' Symbol ``G'' was inadvertently omitted. For the entry ``Contrivances, water-activated, with burster, expelling charge or propelling charge,'' UN0249, we are correcting Column (1) by adding ``G.'' Symbol ``G'' was inadvertently omitted. For the entry ``Hydrazine, aqueous solution, with more than 37% hydrazine, by mass,'' UN2030, PG III, in Column (8A), we are correcting the section reference to read ``154.'' For the entry ``Hydrogendifluorides, solid, n.o.s.,'' UN1740, PG II and III, the proper shipping name is corrected to the singular form to read ``Hydrogendifluoride, solid, n.o.s.'' This correction appears as a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking. For the entry ``Hydrogen peroxide, aqueous solutions wi#

Passage 6th more than 40 percent but not more than 60 percent hydrogen peroxide (stabilized as necessary,) '' UN2014, we are correcting Column (7) by adding ``A60.'' Special provision ``A60'' was inadvertently omitted. For the entry ``Hydrogen peroxide, aqueous solutions with not less than 8 percent but less than 20 percent hydrogen peroxide (stabilized as necessary,) '' UN2984, in Column (8C), we are correcting the section reference to read ``241.'' For the entry ``Nitrocellulose, with not more than 12.6 percent nitrogen, by dry mass, or Nitrocellulose mixture with pigment or Nitrocellulose mixture with plasticizer or Nitrocellulose mixture with pigment and plasticizer,'' UN2557, we are revising the proper shipping name in column (2) to read ``Nitrocellulose, with not more than 12.6 percent, by dry mass mixture with or without plasticizer, with or without pigment.'' This revision is being made for consistency with the description for UN2557 in the UN Recommendations, and appears as a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking. For the entry ``4-Nitrophenylhydrazine, with not less than 30% water, by mass,'' UN3376, in Column (7) we are correcting Special provision ``164'' to read ``162.'' Special provision ``164'' was inadvertently assigned in place of ``162.'' This correction appears as a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking. For the entry ``Organoarsenic compound, liquid, n.o.s.,'' UN3280, PG I, II, and III, the information in the columns associated with PG I is corrected by aligning the hazardous material information with the appropriate columns. This correction appears as a ``Remove/ Add'' in this rulemaking. For the entry ``Paint or Paint related materials,'' UN3066, PG II and III, the proper shipping name is corrected to the singular form to read ``Paint or Paint related material.'' This correction appears as a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking. Section 172.202 Section 172.202 contains requirements for shipping descriptions on shipping papers. In paragraph (a)(6)(vi), we are correcting the wording ``except for UN2800, UN3072, and UN3166'' to read ``except for UN2800, UN2807, UN3072, UN3166 and UN3171'' for consistency with the preamble discussion to Sec. 172.202(a) in the final rule published under docket number HM-215I. Section 172.302 This section establishes general marking requirements for bulk packaging. In paragraph (f), we are revising the last sentence to clarify t#

Passage 7he example illustrating a circumstance for which a bulk packaging need not be remarked to conform to revisions made in the shipping name of the material it contains. Section 172.303 This section addresses prohibited marking. In paragraph (a), we are adding the clarifying language ``or any other markings indicating that the material is hazardous (e.g., RQ, INHALATION HAZARD)'' for consistency with the language used elsewhere in the HMR. Section 172.505 This section sets forth requirements for placarding for subsidiary hazards. In paragraph (a), we are correcting the reference ``Sec. 172.203(m)(2)'' to read ``Sec. 172.203(m).'' Paragraphs (m)(1) and (m)(2) were combined into a single paragraph (m) in a final rule published under docket number HM-189Y (70 FR 56804; September 23, 2005).#

Passage 8Section 173.6 This section establishes exceptions from certain HMR requirements for materials of trade. In paragraph (a)(4), we are correcting the word ``movement'' to read ``shifting'' for consistency with the language used in paragraphs (b)(1) and (b)(3). Section 173.22 This section sets forth general shipper responsibilities. In paragraph (c)(2), we are removing the acronym ``PHMSA'' following the wording ``Associate Administrator,'' because it is unnecessary. Section 171.8 defines the term ``Associate Administrator'' to mean the Associate Administrator for Hazardous Materials Safety, Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration. Section 173.31 This section establishes requirements for the use of railroad tank cars. Paragraph (g) of this section addresses tank car loading and unloading requirements. In paragraph (g)(1), we are revising the wording ``unloader'' to read ``each hazmat employee who is responsible for loading or unloading'' to clarify that the requirements of this section apply to both loading and unloading operations. In addition, we are correcting the wording ``blocked'' to read ``locked.'' In paragraph (g)(2), we are revising the language regarding the design and display of caution signs for consistency with the language used in Sec. 174.67(a)(4). Section 173.132 This section contains classification criteria for Division 6.1 materials. In the HM-215I final rule, we revised the toxicity criteria for Division 6.1 materials in Sec. 173.133 to be consistent with the toxicity criteria adopted in the United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (UN Recommendations). However, the Division 6.1 definition in Sec. 173.132(a) was overlooked. Therefore, in paragraph (a), we are revising the definition of oral toxicity and inhalation toxicity to be consistent with our earlier amendments to Sec. 173.133. Also, in paragraph (a)(1)(iii)(B), we are correcting the measurement unit ``mL/mm\3\ '' to read ``mL/m\3\.'' Section 173.134 This section contains classification criteria and establishes exceptions from certain HMR requirements for Division 6.2 materials. In paragraph (a)(8), we are correcting the wording ``diagnostic specimen'' to read ``patient specimen'' for consistency with changes made in a final rule published under docket number HM-226A (71 FR 32244; July 6, 2006). Sections 173.150, 173.151, 173.152, and 173.154 The#

Passage 9se sections establish exceptions from certain HMR requirements for Class 3, Class 4, Division 5.1, Division 5.2, and Class 8 materials. We are revising the limited quantity provisions in each of these sections to clarify that the labeling exception is not granted to materials with a Division 6.1 subsidiary hazard. The amendments disallowing the labeling exception for limited quantities of Division 6.1 materials were included in a final rule under docket number HM-215G (69 FR 76044; December 20, 2004), but were inadvertently omitted when these provisions were revised under HM-228 (71 FR 14586; March 22, 2006). Additionally, in Sec. 173.150(d)(2) pertaining to the carriage of alcoholic beverages as checked or carry-on baggage, we are correcting the reference ``175.10(a)(17)'' to read ``Sec. 175.10(a)(4).'' Section 173.199 This section establishes packaging requirements for Category B infectious substances. In paragraph (a) introductory text, we are correcting an obsolete section reference. Section 173.225 This section sets forth packaging requirements for organic peroxides. In paragraph (c), we are removing ``>='' from Note 17 of the Organic Peroxide Table and adding ``<='' to correct a typographical error. Section 173.244 This section sets forth bulk packaging requirements for certain Division 4.2, 4.3, and 6.1 materials. We are adding a sentence to the end of paragraph (c) to clarify DOT 51 and UN portable tanks used to transport Division 6.1 liquids, Hazard Zone A or B, must be certified and stamped to the ASME Code as prescribed in Sec. 178.273(b)(6). Section 173.411 This section establishes requirements for industrial packaging used to transport Class 7 materials. In paragraph (b)(5), we are removing the section citations to Sec. Sec. 178.270, 178.271, and 178.272 because the manufacture of portable tanks to the IM 101 and 102 specifications is no longer authorized.#

Passage 10Section 174.67 Section 174.67 prescribes procedures for conducting transloading operations involving railroad tank cars. In paragraphs (a)(2), (a)(3), and (a)(4), we are revising the wording ``the unloader'' to read ``each hazmat employee who is responsible for unloading'' for clarity. Also, in a final rule published under docket number HM-223 (68 FR 61941; October 30, 2003), we redesignated paragraph (a)(4) containing precautions when venting a tank car as paragraph (a)(6) but failed to include the newly redesignated paragraph in the regulatory text. Paragraph (a)(6) is added in this final rule. Section 175.8 This section contains exceptions from certain HMR requirements for operator equipment and replacement items transported by aircraft. In paragraph (a)(3)(ii), we are correcting the reference ``Sec. 175.75(a)'' to read ``Sec. 175.75(c)''. Section 175.75 This section establishes cargo limitation and stowage requirements for hazardous materials transported by aircraft. At the end of paragraph (e)(3), we are removing the word ``and'' and adding a period. The requirements in paragraphs (e)(3) and (e)(4) are stand-alone requirements. Paragraph (e)(3), which outlines conditions for hazardous materials transported on board a cargo aircraft, includes a requirement for written approval by FAA. Paragraph (e)(4), which outlines conditions for hazardous materials transported on board a small, single pilot, cargo aircraft, does not include a requirement for FAA approval. Also, in paragraph (e)(5), we are revising the ``Quantity and Loading Tables'' to correct the formatting errors. Section 176.83 We are reprinting the ``Segregation of Cargo Transport Units on Board Hatchless Container Ships'' table in Sec. 176.83(l) to correct formatting errors. Sections 178.270-12, 178.270-13, and 178.270-14 These sections establish requirements for IM 101 and 102 portable tanks. Most sections applicable to these portable tanks were removed from the HMR in a final rule under docket number HM-189Z (71 FR 54388; September 14, 2006) because the manufacture of IM portable#

Passage 11tanks is no longer authorized. These sections were inadvertently not omitted from that final rule. Section 178.273 This section sets forth requirements for approval of specification IM portable tanks and UN portable tanks. We are revising the section title and paragraph (e)(1) to remove references to the IM portable tanks because manufacture of those tanks is no longer authorized. Also, in paragraph (b)(7)(ii), we are removing the wording ``Sec. 178.270-14 of this subchapter for IM portable tanks, Sec. 178.245-6 for Specification 51 steel portable tanks, or''. Section 178.274 This section contains specifications for UN portable tanks. We are revising paragraph (b)(1) to clarify that portable tanks used for Zone A or B toxic by inhalation liquids are required to have an ASME certification and U stamp as prescribed in Sec. 178.273(b)(6). Section 178.348-4 This section specifies pressure relief requirements for DOT 412 cargo tanks. In paragraph (d)(3), we are removing a reference to a formula in obsolete Sec. 178.270-11(d)(3) and inserting the formula, expressed in nonmetric units, that had been contained in the referenced section. Section 178.270-11 was removed in a final rule under docket number HM-189Z. Section 178.606 This section establishes requirements for performing the stacking test to ensure that non-bulk packagings conform to the performance standard established in the HMR. In paragraph (c)(2)(ii), in the stacking test requirements for a packaging intended for solids, we are correcting the formula to include a constant of 2.2 (lbs/kg) to convert the units on the right side of the formula to pounds for consistency with the units of variable ``A'' in the formula. In addition, we are including explanations of the multipliers ``2.2'' and ``.98'' in the formula for liquids. Section 179.300-19 This section addresses inspection requirements for newly constructed rail tank cars. In paragraph (a), we are revising the wording ``acceptable to the Bureau of Explosives'' to read ``as approved by the Associate Administrator for Safety, FRA.'' These approvals are no longer handled by the Bureau of Explosives.#

Passage 12Section 180.209 This section establishes requalification requirements for cylinders. In the table in paragraph (i)(1), we are correcting ``3 to 20 years'' to read ``5 to 20 years'' for the initial porous filler requalification of acetylene cylinders manufactured on or after January 1, 1991. The change from 3 years to 5 years, adopted in a final rule published under docket number HM 218B, is correctly stated in footnote 2 following the table. Section 180.212 This section specifies requirements for repair of seamless DOT specification and UN cylinders. In paragraph (b)(2), we are revising the wording to clarify that rethreading of cylinders may be performed by a manufacturer of the type of cylinder being rethreaded instead of limiting the work to the original manufacturer, who may no longer be in business. This revised wording is consistent with the wording used in paragraph (b)(1). Section 180.215 This section establishes reporting and record-retention requirements related to the qualification, maintenance, and use of cylinders. We are correcting paragraph (b) by adding the words ``, if present'' after ``manufacturer's name or symbol'' to alleviate confusion by cylinder requalifiers. A. Executive Order 12866 and DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures This final rule is not considered a significant regulatory action under section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866 and, therefore, was not reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget. This rule is not significant under the Regulatory Policies and Procedures of the Department of Transportation (44 FR 11034). This final rule does not impose new or revised requirements for hazardous materials shippers or carriers; therefore, it is not necessary to prepare a regulatory impact analysis.#

Passage 13This final rule has been analyzed in accordance with the principles and criteria in Executive Order 13132 (``Federalism''). This final rule does not adopt any regulation that: (1) Has substantial direct effects on the States, the relationship between the national government and the States, or the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government; or (2) imposes substantial direct compliance costs on State and local governments. PHMSA is not aware of any State, local or Indian tribe requirements that would be preempted by correcting editorial errors and making minor regulatory changes. This final rule does not have sufficient federalism impacts to warrant the preparation of a federalism assessment. This final rule has been analyzed in accordance with the principles and criteria contained in Executive Order 13175 (``Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments''). Because this final rule does not have tribal implications, does not impose substantial direct compliance costs on Indian tribal governments, and does not preempt tribal law, the funding and consultation requirements of Executive Order 13175 do not apply, and a tribal summary impact statement is not required. D. Regulatory Flexibility Act, Executive Order 13272, and DOT Procedures and Policies I certify that this final rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This rule makes minor editorial changes which will not impose any new requirements on persons subject to the HMR; thus, there are no direct or indirect adverse economic impacts for small units of government, businesses or other organizations. This rule does not impose unfunded mandates under the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995. It does not result in costs of $120.7 million or more to either State, local, or tribal governments, in the aggregate, or to the private sector, and is the least burdensome alternative that achieves the objective of the rule. There are no new information collection requirements in this final rule. There are no environmental impacts associated with this final rule.#

Passage 14A regulation identifier number (RIN) is assigned to each regulatory action listed in the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulations. The Regulatory Information Service Center publishes the Unified Agenda in April and October of each year. The RIN number contained in the heading of this document can be used to cross-reference this action with the Unified Agenda. Administrative practice and procedure, Hazardous materials transportation.

In Sec. 178.606, paragraph (c)(2)(ii) is revised to read as follows: * * * * * (c) * * * (2) * * * (ii) The packaging may be tested using a dynamic compression testing machine. The test must be conducted at room temperature on an empty, unsealed packaging. The test sample must be centered on the bottom platen of the testing machine. The top platen must be lowered until it comes in contact with the test sample. Compression must be applied end to end. The speed of the compression tester must be one- half inch plus or minus one-fourth inch per minute. An initial preload of 50 pounds must be applied to ensure a definite contact between the test sample and the platens. The distance between the platens at this time must be recorded as zero deformation. The force A to then be applied must be calculated using the formula: Liquids: A = (n-1) [w + (s x v x 8.3 x .98)] x 1.5; Solids: A = (n-1) (m x 2.2 x 1.5) A = applied load in pounds m = the certified maximum gross mass for the container in kilograms. n = minimum number of containers that, when stacked, reach a height of 3 meters. s = specific gravity of lading. w = maximum weight of one empty container in pounds. v = actual capacity of container (rated capacity + outage) in gallons.#

Passage 408.3 corresponds to the weight in pounds of 1.0 gallon of water. .98 corresponds to the minimum filling percentage of the maximum capacity for liquids. 1.5 is a compensation factor that converts the static load of the stacking test into a load suitable for dynamic compression testing. 2.2 is the conversion factor for kilograms to pounds. * * * * * 0 63.
