Harmonization With the United Nations Recommendations,
International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code, and International Civil
Aviation Organization's Technical Instructions; Correction; Final Rule
AGENCY: Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA),
DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On December 20, 2004, the Research and Special Programs
Administration (RSPA)--the predecessor agency to the Pipeline and
Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA)--published a final
rule under Docket Number RSPA-04-17036 (HM-215G) amending the Hazardous
Materials Regulations (HMR) to maintain alignment with international
standards by incorporating various amendments, including changes to
proper shipping names, hazard classes, packing groups, special
provisions, packaging authorizations, air transport quantity
limitations and vessel stowage requirements. Because of recent changes
to the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code (IMDG Code), the
International Civil Aviation Organization's Technical Instructions for
the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air (ICAO Technical
Instructions), and the United Nations Recommendations on the Transport
of Dangerous Goods (UN Recommendations), these revisions are necessary
to facilitate the transport of hazardous materials in international
commerce. This final rule corrects errors in the December 20, 2004
final rule.
DATES: Effective Date: The effective date of these amendments is June
14, 2005.
Delayed Compliance Date: Unless otherwise specified, compliance
with the amendments adopted in this final rule is required beginning
January 1, 2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On December 20, 2004, the Research and Special Programs
Administration (RSPA)--the predecessor agency to the Pipeline and
Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA, we)--published a
final rule under Docket HM-215G (69 FR 76044) revising the HMR to
maintain alignment with recent changes corresponding provisions in
international standards. Changes to the International Maritime
Dangerous Goods Code (IMDG Code), the International Civil Aviation
Organization's Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of
Dangerous Goods by Air (ICAO Technical Instructions), and the United
Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (UN
Recommendations) necessitated amendments to domestic regulations to
provide consistency and facilitate the transport of hazardous materials
in international commerce. This final rule corrects various errors made
during the development of the December 20, 2004 final rule and printing
process. Because the amendments adopted herein impose no new regulatory
burden on any person, these amendments are being made effective without
the usual 30-day delay following publication.

Section 172.102
We are correcting entries in the Special Provisions as follows:
In paragraph (c)(1), Special Provision 173 is added. In
the final rule we adopted an array of new generic UN entries for
organometallic substances to harmonize with the UN Recommendations.
These new generic entries are intended to be used for all
organometallic substances, with all existing generic entries covering
these substances being deleted. Consistent with the UN Recommendations,
the final rule removed certain existing generic entries covering these
materials, while certain entries for these materials were temporarily
retained. The entries concerned are UN1366, UN1370, UN2005, UN2445,
UN3051, UN3052, UN3076, UN3433 and UN3461. In the final rule, we
included a statement in the preamble (69 FR 76048) stating our intent
to remove these entries effective January 1, 2007.
However, in the UN Recommendations, Special Provision 320 was added
to each of the affected entries scheduled for removal in 2007 that
allows the appropriate new generic organometallic substances entry to
be used in place of the technical name entry irrespective of the
requirements in 2.0.2.2 of the UN Recommendations (which would
otherwise require use of the technical name entry). The final rule, in
error, failed to adopt a similar provision to that in UN Special
Provision 320. Consequently, Sec. 172.101(c)(12)(ii) would appear to
preclude use of the new generic entries until such time the technical
name entries are removed from the Hazardous Materials Table. Therefore,
we are correcting this inconsistency by adding to the affected entries
a Special Provision 173 stating that ``An appropriate generic entry may
be used.''
In paragraph (c)(3), in Special Provision B69, we are
correcting the last sentence by adding the word ``be'' after the word
``must'' and before the word ``approved.'' During the printing process
the word ``be'' was inadvertently omitted.
In paragraph (c)(4), in the ``Table 1--IB Codes,'' in the
first column, under
[[Page 34385]]
the heading ``IBC Code,'' the wording ``B2'' is corrected to read
``IB2.'' The typographical error occurred during the printing process.
In paragraph (c)(4), in the ``Table 1--IB Codes,'' in the
second column, under the heading ``Authorized IBCs,'' in the Additional
Requirement entry for ``IB3,'' the reference to ``Table 3'' is
corrected to read ``Table 2.'' The typographical error occurred during
the printing process.
In paragraph (c)(7), in the ``Table of Portable Tank T
Codes T1-T22,'' in the fifth column, the first entry ``Sec.
178.275(d)(2)0'' is corrected to read ``Sec.
178.275(d)(2).'' The typographical error occurred during the printing
process.
In paragraph (c)(8), in portable tank special provision
``TP3,'' the formula is corrected by revising ``dr'' and ``df'' to read
``dr'' and ``df.'' The typographical error occurred during the printing
process.
Section 172.202
In paragraph (a)(5)(i), in the first sentence, the wording ``For
Class I materials'' is corrected to read ``For Class 1 materials''. The
typographical error occurred during the printing process.
Section 172.203
Paragraph (m)(2) is revised to clarify that the phrase ``Poison-
Inhalation Hazard'' or ``Toxic Inhalation Hazard'' need not be added to
the shipping description if the words ``Poison Inhalation'' or ``Toxic
Inhalation'' otherwise appear in the shipping description.
Part 173
Section 173.3
In the December 20, 2004 final rule, we revised the requirements
for use of salvage drums to include the term ``non-conforming.'' The
term ``non-conforming'' was added to the UN Model Regulations by the UN
Committee of Experts in 2000. Our intent in the final rule was to allow
the use of salvage drums for non-conforming packages, but to limit such
use to instances where the packages were discovered to be non-
conforming after having been placed in transportation. However, we
inadvertently applied the limitation to damaged, defective, and leaking
packages as well as to non-conforming packages. We are therefore
revising 173.3(c) to clarify that damaged, defective, or leaking
packages may be transported in salvage drums under the specified
conditions irrespective of whether such packages are discovered before
or after having been place in transportation. This would allow, for
example, a package found leaking at a fixed storage facility to be
transported in a salvage drum for purposes of recovery or disposal.
Section 173.25
In Sec. 173.25, paragraph (a)(4) is revised to clarify that
overpacks marked with an indication that inner containers comply with
prescribed specification may be used to satisfy the ``OVERPACK''
marking until October 1, 2007. The ``inner container comply with
prescribed specifications'' marking remains in effect for cylinders or
containers packaged in a strong non-bulk outer packaging that are
specifically required elsewhere in this part to be marked in this
manner.
Section 173.115
In Sec. 173.115, we are making the following corrections:
In paragraph (a)(2), the last sentence is corrected to
reference ``Sec. 173.115(k)'' regarding the flammability tests for
aerosols.
In paragraph (k)(3), a grandfather provision that would
authorize an aerosol that was tested prior to January 1, 2006 in
accordance with the requirements in effect on December 31, 2005 is not
required to be retested.
The wording was inadvertently omitted.
Section 173.151
In Sec. 173.151, in paragraph (c), in the first sentence, the
wording ``171.8'' is corrected to read ``Sec. 171.8.'' The
typographical error occurred during the printing process.
Section 173.185
In Sec. 173.185, in paragraph (e)(6), in the second sentence, the
wording ``of a design type'' is added after the word ``battery'' and
before the word ``which.'' The wording was inadvertently omitted during
the printing process.
Section 173.212
In Sec. 173.212, in paragraph (c), the entry ``Glass, porcelain or
stoneware in steel, aluminum, wooden or fiberboard box: 6PA2, 6PB1, 6PC
or 6PG2'' is corrected to read ``Glass, porcelain or stoneware in
steel, aluminum, wooden or fiberboard box: 6PA2, 6PB2, 6PC or 6PG2.'' A
typographical error occurred during the printing process.
Section 173.213
In Sec. 173.213, in paragraph (c), the entry ``Glass, porcelain or
stoneware in steel, aluminum, wooden or fiberboard box: 6PA2, 6PB1, 6PC
or 6PG2'' is corrected to read ``Glass, porcelain or stoneware in
steel, aluminum, wooden or fiberboard box: 6PA2, 6PB2, 6PC or 6PG2.'' A
typographical error occurred during the printing process.
Section 173.220
In Sec. 173.220, we are making the following corrections:
In paragraph (a)(3), the reference to paragraph ``(d)(1)''
is corrected to read ``(e)(1).''
In paragraph (g), the reference to paragraph ``(d)(2)'' is
corrected to read ``(e)(2).''
These typographical errors occurred during the printing process.
Section 173.225
In Sec. 173.225, we are making the following corrections:
In paragraph (c)(8), in the ``Organic Peroxide Table,''
for the entry ``Dicumyl peroxide, UN3110, the number ``9'' is added to
``column 8.''
In paragraph (c)(8), in the ``Organic Peroxide Table,''
under ``Notes,'' Note 12 is corrected by revising the reference to
``paragraph (c)(2)'' to read ``paragraph (b)(2).'' In paragraph (g), in
the ``Organic Peroxide Portable Tank Table,'' for the entry ``ORGANIC
PEROXIDE, TYPE F, LIQUID, UN3109,'' the word ``than'' is added
immediately after the word ``more'' and before the wording ``72%'' for
the entries ``Isopropyl cumyl hydroperoxide, not more 72% in diluent
type A'' and ``p-Menthyl hydro-peroxide, not more 72% in diluent type
A,'' respectively.
Paragraph (h)(3)(xii) is revised specify that DOT 57 metal
portable tanks are authorized for those materials that are provided
with a reference to Note 9 in Column 8 of the Organic Peroxide Table
and that when authorized these tanks must conform to the venting
requirements specified in Sec. 173.225(f). In the NPRM, we proposed to
remove ``Note 9.'' However, as a result of comments received on the
NPRM that proposal was not adopted.
In the December 20, 2004 final rule, we added Note 29 to
the notes following the Organic Peroxide Table. The note was used to
identify materials which are found in the HMR, but not included in the
UN Model Regulations, IMDG Code, and the ICAO Technical Instructions
and to indicate that a Competent Authority approval is required for
international transportation. However, it is not our policy to require
approvals for organic peroxide formulations listed in the HMR but not
in the international regulations. Therefore, Note 29 is being removed.
However, in accordance with Sec. Sec. 171.11(d)(17), 171.12(b)(20),
and
[[Page 34386]]
171.12a(b)(18) a Competent Authority approval, issued by the Associate
Administrator, is still required for shipments of organic peroxides
which are not identified by technical name in the Organic Peroxide
Table (also see Sec. 173.128(d)).
Section 173.227
In Sec. 173.227, paragraph (b)(1) is being reinstated. This
paragraph was inadvertently omitted during the printing process.
Section 173.313
In Sec. 173.313, in the ``UN Portable Tank Table for Liquefied
Compressed Gases,'' the following corrections are made:
Immediately following the entry ``Methyl chloride and
methylene chloride mixture, UN1912,'' in the first and second columns
respectively, the wording ``1954'' and ``n.o.s.'' are removed. In
addition, in the sixth column the wording ``0.81194'' is corrected to
read ``0.81.''
Immediately following the entry ``Insecticide gases,
flammable,'' in the first and second columns, the wording ``1954'' and
``n.o.s.'' are added respectively. These typographical errors occurred
during the printing process.
Part 175
Section 175.30
In Sec. 175.30, paragraph (a)(5) is removed. Paragraph (a)(5)
required hazardous materials being accepted for transportation aboard
an aircraft to be marked with the air eligibility marking in accordance
with Sec. 172.321. In the final rule (69 FR 76154), we removed the
requirement for shippers to mark packages acceptable for air transport
with the air eligibility marking.
Part 176
Section 176.83
In Sec. 176.83, in paragraph (l)(3), in the ``Segregation of Cargo
Transport Units on Board Hatchless Container Ships,'' the following
corrections are made:
For the entry ``Away from,'' the first word in the tenth
and eleventh columns are corrected to read ``One.''
For the entry ``Separated by a complete compartment or
hold from,'' in the tenth column, in the second sentence, the word
``Tree'' is corrected to read ``Three.'' The typographical errors
occurred during the printing process.
Part 178
Section 178.274
In Sec. 178.274, in paragraph (f)(1)(v), the wording ``(IBR, see
Sec. 171.1 of this subchapter)'' is corrected to read ``(IBR, see
Sec. 171.7 of this subchapter).'' The typographical error occurred
during the printing process.
Part 180
Section 180.352
In the final rule, we added a new paragraph (d)(1)(v) authorizing
retests and inspections performed under paragraphs (d)(1)(i) and
(d)(1)(ii) of this section to be used to satisfy the tests and
inspections required of paragraph (b) of this section. However, an
editorial error occurred during the printing process that caused the
text in new paragraph (d)(1)(v) to be repeated in paragraph (d)(1)(iv).
Additionally, the editorial error in paragraph (d)(1)(iv) created an
incorrect lead-in to subparagraphs (A) and (B) that follow. The
original intent of this change was to keep the ``repair'' and ``routine
maintenance'' requirements in this section separate. Therefore, we are
revising paragraph (d)(1)(iv) to correct this editorial error.
III. Regulatory Analyses and Notices
A. Statutory/Legal Authority for This Rulemaking
This final rule is published under the following statutory
authorities:
1. 49 U.S.C. 5103(b) authorizes the Secretary of Transportation to
prescribe regulations for the safe transportation, including security,
of hazardous material in intrastate, interstate, and foreign commerce.
This final rule corrects various errors made during the development of
the December 20, 2004 final rule and printing process. To this end, as
discussed in detail earlier in this preamble, the December 20, 2004
final rule amended the HMR to more fully align it with the biennial
updates of the UN Recommendations, the IMDG Code and the ICAO Technical
Instructions to facilitate the transport of hazardous materials in
international commerce.
2. 49 U.S.C. 5120(b) authorizes the Secretary of Transportation to
ensure that, to the extent practicable, regulations governing the
transportation of hazardous materials in commerce are consistent with
standards adopted by international authorities. This final rule
corrects various errors made during the development of the December 20,
2004 final rule and printing process. To this end, as discussed in
detail earlier in this preamble, the December 20, 2004 final rule
incorporates changes into the HMR based on the Thirteenth Revised
Edition of the UN Recommendation, Amendment 32 to the IMDG Code, and
the 2005-2006 ICAO Technical Instructions, which became effective
January 1, 2005. The continually increasing amount of hazardous
materials transported in international commerce warrants the
harmonization of domestic and international requirements to the
greatest extent possible. Harmonization serves to facilitate
international transportation; at the same time, harmonization ensures
the safety of people, property, and the environment by reducing the
potential for confusion and misunderstanding that could result if
shippers and transporters were required to comply with two or more
conflicting sets of regulatory requirements. While the intent of this
rulemaking is to align the HMR with international standards, we review
and consider each amendment on its own merit based on its overall
impact on transportation safety and the economic implications
associated with its adoption into the HMR. Our goal is to harmonize
without sacrificing the current HMR level of safety and without
imposing undue burdens on the regulated public. Thus, as discussed in
detail in the preamble of the December 20, 2004 final rule, there were
several instances where we elected not to adopt a specific provision of
the UN Recommendations, the IMDG Code or the ICAO Technical
Instructions; further, we are maintaining a number of current
exceptions for domestic transportation that should minimize the
compliance burden on the regulated community.
B. Executive Order 12866 and DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures
This final rule is not a significant regulatory action under
section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866 and was not reviewed by the
Office of Management and Budget. This final rule is a non-significant
rule under the Regulatory Policies and Procedures of the Department of
Transportation [44 FR 11034]. The revisions adopted in this final rule
do not alter the cost-benefit analysis and conclusions contained in the
Regulatory Evaluation prepared for the December 20, 2004 final rule.
The Regulatory Evaluation is available for review in the public docket
for this rulemaking.
C. Executive Order 13132
This final rule has been analyzed in accordance with the principles
and criteria contained in Executive Order 13132 (``Federalism''). This
final rule preempts State, local and Indian tribe requirements but does
not propose any regulation that 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
[[Page 34387]]
levels of government. Therefore, the consultation and funding
requirements of Executive Order 13132 do not apply.
The Federal hazardous material transportation law, 49 U.S.C. 5101-
5127, contains an express preemption provision (49 U.S.C. 5125(b)) that
preempts State, local, and Indian tribe requirements on certain covered
subjects. Covered subjects are:
(1) The designation, description, and classification of hazardous
materials;
(2) The packing, repacking, handling, labeling, marking, and
placarding of hazardous materials;
(3) The preparation, execution, and use of shipping documents
related to hazardous materials and requirements related to the number,
contents, and placement of those documents;
(4) The written notification, recording, and reporting of the
unintentional release in transportation of hazardous materials; and
(5) The design, manufacture, fabrication, marking, maintenance,
recondition, repair, or testing of a packaging or container
represented, marked, certified, or sold as qualified for use in
transporting hazardous material.
This final rule addresses covered subject items (1), (2), (3), and
(5) above and preempts State, local, and Indian tribe requirements not
meeting the ``substantively the same'' standard. This final rule is
necessary to incorporate changes adopted in international standards,
effective January 1, 2005. If the changes in this final rule are not
adopted in the HMR, U.S. companies, including numerous small entities
competing in foreign markets, are at an economic disadvantage. These
companies are forced to comply with a dual system of regulations. The
changes in this rulemaking are intended to avoid this result. Federal
hazardous materials transportation law provides at section 5125(b)(2)
that, if DOT issues a regulation concerning any of the covered
subjects, DOT must determine and publish in the Federal Register the
effective date of Federal preemption. The effective date may not be
earlier than the 90th day following the date of issuance of the final
rule and not later than two years after the date of issuance. The
effective date of Federal preemption is September 12, 2005.
D. Executive Order 13175
This final rule was 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, and is required by statute, the funding and
consultation requirements of Executive Order 13175 do not apply.
E. Regulatory Flexibility Act, Executive Order 13272, and DOT
Procedures and Policies
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) requires an
agency to review regulations to assess their impact on small entities
unless the agency determines that a rule is not expected to have a
significant impact on a substantial number of small entities. The
corrections contained in this final rule will have little or no effect
on the regulated industry. Based on the assessment in the regulatory
evaluation, to the December 20, 2004 final rule, I hereby certify that,
while this rule applies to a substantial number of small entities,
there will not be a significant economic impact on those small
entities. A detailed Regulatory Flexibility analysis is available for
review in the docket.
This final rule has been developed in accordance with Executive
Order 13272 (``Proper Consideration of Small Entities in Agency
Rulemaking'') and DOT's procedures and policies to promote compliance
with the Regulatory Flexibility Act to ensure that potential impacts of
draft rules on small entities are properly considered.
F. Paperwork Reduction Act
This final rule imposes no new information collection requirements.
G. Regulatory Identifier Number (RIN)
A 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 contained in the heading of
this document can be used to cross-reference this action with the
Unified Agenda.
H. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
This final 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.
I. Environmental Assessment
The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) requires
Federal agencies to consider the consequences of major Federal actions
and prepare a detailed statement on actions significantly affecting the
quality of the human environment. In the December 20, 2004 final rule,
we developed an assessment to determine the effects of these revisions
on the environment and whether a more comprehensive environmental
impact statement may be required. Our findings conclude that there are
no significant environmental impacts associated with this final rule.
Consistency in the regulations for the transportation of hazardous
materials aids in the shipper's understanding of what is required and
permits shippers to more easily comply with safety regulations and
avoid the potential for environmental damage or contamination. For
interested parties, an environmental assessment is available in the
public docket.
J. Privacy Act
Anyone is able to search the electronic form of any written
communications and comments received into any of our dockets by the
name of the individual submitting the document (or signing the
document, if submitted on behalf of an association, business, labor
union, etc.). You may review DOT's complete Privacy Act Statement in
the Federal Register published on April 11, 2000 (Volume 65, Number 70;
