-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This final rule corrects errors in the 49 CFR 172.101
Hazardous Materials Table (HMT) made during the recent publication of
49 CFR Parts 100 to 185. In the most recent publication of 49 CFR Parts

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: T. Glenn Foster, Office of Hazardous
Materials Standards, (202) 366-8553, Research and Special Programs
Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation, 400 Seventh Street,
SW., Washington, DC 20590-0001.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
This final rule corrects the inadvertent deletion of certain
entries in the Sec. 172.101 Hazardous Materials Table (HMT) primarily
made during the recent publication of 49 CFR Parts 100 to 185. These
errors were the result of a misunderstanding concerning the amendatory
language in final rules that affected the HMT, in particular, Docket
HM-215E (July 31, 2003; 68 FR 44992).
The amendments contained in this rule are minor changes and do not
impose new requirements. Because these amendments do not impose new
requirements, notice and public procedure are unnecessary. The
following is a summary of the amendments made under this final rule.
We are amending the HMT to correct certain entries as follows:
1. The following entries, that were inadvertently removed, are
being reinserted:
--``Adhesives, containing a flammable liquid, UN1133,'' Packing Groups
I and III;
--``Coating Solution (includes surface treatments or coatings used for
industrial or other purposes such as vehicle undercoating, drum or
barrel lining) , UN1139,'' Packing Groups I and III;
--``Extracts, aromatic, liquid, UN1169,'' Packing Group III;
--``Flammable liquids, n.o.s., UN1993,'' Packing Groups II and III;
--``Hydrobromic acid, with not more than 49 percent hydrobromic acid,
UN1788,'' Packing Group II;
--``Hydrocarbons, liquid, n.o.s., UN3295,'' Packing Groups II and III;
--``Organochlorine pesticides, liquid, toxic, flammable, flash point
not less than 23 degrees C, UN2995,'' Packing Group I;
--``Paint including paint, lacquer, enamel, stain, shellac solutions,
varnish, polish, liquid filler, and liquid lacquer base, UN1263,''
Packing Groups I and III;
--``Paint related material including paint thinning, drying, removing,
or reducing compound, UN1263,'' Packing Groups I and III;
--``Pentanes, UN1265,'' Packing Groups I;
--``Perfumery products with flammable solvents, UN1266,'' Packing Group
III;
--``Printing ink, flammable or Printing ink related material (including
printing ink thinning or reducing compound), flammable, UN1210,''
Packing Groups I and III;
--``Resin solution, flammable, UN1866,'' Packing Groups I and III;
--``Rubber solution, UN1287,'' Packing Group III;
--Tars, liquid, including road asphalt and oils, bitumen and cut backs,
UN1999,'' Packing Group III; and
--``Wood preservatives, liquid, UN1306,'' Packing Group III.
2. The first occurrence of the entry ``Organochlorine pesticides,
liquid, toxic, flammable, flash point not less than 23 degrees C,
UN2995,'' Packing Group III, is removed.
3. The entry ``[PG II].,'' immediately preceding the entry
``Pentanes, UN1265,'' is removed.
4. The entry ``Gasohol gasoline mixed with ethyl alcohol, with not
more than 20 percent alcohol, NA1203,'' Packing Group I, is replaced
with ``Gasohol gasoline mixed with ethyl alcohol, with not more than 20
percent alcohol, NA1203,'' Packing Group II.
II. Rulemaking Analyses and Notices
A. 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 therefore, was not reviewed
by the Office of Management and Budget. This final rule is not a
significant rule under the Regulatory Policies and Procedures of the
Department of Transportation [44 FR 11034]. Because there is no impact
of this rule, preparation of a regulatory impact analysis is not
warranted.
B. Executive Order 13132
RSPA 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
C. Executive Order 13175
This final rule was analyzed in accordance with the principles and
[[Page 41968]]
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.
D. Regulatory Flexibility Act
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.
E. Paperwork Reduction Act
This final rule does not impose new information collection
requirements.
F. Regulation 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.
G. 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
$100 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.
