Materials Safety Administration
(PHMSA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
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). In
addition, this final rule revises
references to the former Research and
Special Programs Administration to
reflect the creation of Pipeline and
Hazardous Materials Safety
Administration. The intended effect of
this rule is to enhance the accuracy, and
reduce misunderstandings of the
regulations. The amendments contained
in this rule are minor changes and do
not impose new requirements.
DATES: Effective date: September 28,
2005.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
I. Background
The Norman Y. Mineta Research and
Special Programs Improvement Act of
2004 reorganized the Department of
Transportation’s pipeline and hazardous
materials safety programs that were
formerly a part of the Research and
Special Programs Administration
(RSPA). The Act created the Pipeline
and Hazardous Materials Safety
Administration (PHMSA, we), a
separate operating administration.
PHMSA annually reviews the
Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR;
49 CFR parts 171–180) to identify errors
that may confuse readers. In this final
rule, we revise all references to RSPA to
reflect the creation of PHMSA. This
final rule also corrects the following
inaccuracies: typographical and printing
errors; incorrect references to
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 205001
regulations in the CFR; inaccurate office
names, routing symbols, and e-mail
addresses; inconsistent use of
terminology; and misstatements of
certain regulatory requirements.
Because these amendments do not
impose new requirements, notice and
public procedure are unnecessary. By
making these amendments effective
without the customary 30-day delay
following publication, the changes will
appear in the next revision of 49 CFR.
The following is a summary by
section of the changes made in this final
rule. It does not discuss all minor
editorial corrections (e.g., punctuation
errors), and certain other minor
adjustments to enhance the clarity of the
HMR (e.g., corrections to office names,
routing symbols and e-mail addresses).
II. Section-by-Section Review
Part 107
Appendix A to Subpart D of Part 107:
In Appendix A to Subpart D of Part 107,
in section IV, paragraph C, we are
revising the reference to ‘‘49 U.S.C.
5213(a)’’ to read ‘‘49 U.S.C. 5123(a)’’.
Part 171
Section 171.6. In paragraph (b)(2), the
table of OMB control numbers is revised
to reflect current control numbers,
report titles, and affected sections for

Section 171.8. In the definition for
‘‘Maximum Allowable Working Pressure
or MAWP,’’ we are correcting the
reference ‘‘178.320(c)’’ to read
‘‘§ 178.320(a)’’.
Section 171.11. In paragraph
(d)(6)(iv), we are amending the text by
removing ‘‘radioactive material’’ and
adding ‘‘limited quantities of
radioactive material’’ in its place.

Section 172.102. In paragraph (c)(1),
in Special provision 144, we are
correcting the reference ‘‘40 CFR
180.12’’ to read ‘‘40 CFR 280.12’’. In
paragraph (c)(1), we are editorially
revising Special provision 132 for
clarity. In paragraph (c)(4), in the Table
1.—IB CODES (IBC CODES), in the IB2
entry, a typographical error is corrected.
Section 172.203. We are removing a
requirement in paragraph (m) to include
the word ‘‘Poison’’ or ‘‘Toxic’’ on a
shipping paper if the fact that it is a
poison is not disclosed in the shipping
name or class entry. The requirement is
no longer necessary because
§ 172.202(a)(2) requires the subsidiary
hazard class(es) to be entered following
the primary hazard class or division
number.
Section 172.322. We are adding a new
paragraph (f) to reference the exception
for marine pollutants in § 171.4(c).
Part 173
Section 173.3. In § 173.3, paragraph
(c) introductory text is amended to
include the proper tense of the word
‘‘place.’’ In addition, grammatical errors
were corrected for clarity.
Section 173.4. In paragraph (a) (10),
we are revising the text to remove an
obsolete package marking statement.
Section 173.134. In paragraph
(c)(1)(ii), we are correcting the reference
‘‘29 CFR 1910.103’’ to read ‘‘29 CFR
1910.1030’’.
Section 173.222. In paragraph (c)(2),
we are correcting the conversion ‘‘0.5 L
(0.3 gallons)’’ to read ‘‘0.5 L (0.1
gallon)’’.
Section 173.227. In § 173.227, in the
section heading, a typographical error is
corrected.
Section 173.315. Section 173.315(a) is
revised to clarify that UN portable tanks
used to transport liquefied gas must be
loaded and offered in accordance with
Special Provision T50 in § 172.102 and
must otherwise comply with the
requirements of § 173.315.
Section 173.403. In the definition for
‘‘Radioactive instrument or article,’’ we
are correcting the wording ‘‘such as an
instrument such as an instrument’’ to
read ‘‘such as an instrument’’.
Section 173.418. We are revising
paragraph (e) to remove the reference to
Column (8) of the HMT for authorized
Type B packagings for pyrophoric Class
7 (radioactive) materials, because the
entries for pyrophoric Class 7
E:\FR\FM\23SER3.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 184 / Friday, September 23, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
(radioactive) materials no longer appear
in the HMT.
Section 173.421. We are correcting
paragraph (a)(5) to state that a package
may not contain fissile material unless
excepted by § 173.453. Under
§ 173.421(a)(5) a package is limited to
contain 15 grams or less of uranium235. This package exception limit is
actually in § 173.453 not § 173.426, and
only applies to packages containing
fissile material.
Section 173.427. In paragraph
(b)(5)(i), we are correcting the reference
‘‘(§§ 179.200, 179.201, 179.202 of this
subchapter)’’ to read ‘‘(§§ 173.31, and
179.201–1 to 179.201–11 of this
subchapter)’’.
Section 173.465. In paragraph (c)(1),
we are correcting the reference to ‘‘Table
12’’ to read ‘‘Table 10’’. Additionally, in
column one of Table 10, we are
correcting the wording ‘‘Packaging
mass’’ to read ‘‘Package mass’’.
Part 176
Section 176.144. In § 176.144, in
paragraph (a), in the ‘‘TABLE
176.144(a)—AUTHORIZED MIXED
STOWAGE FOR EXPLOSIVES,’’ for
compatibility groups ‘‘E’’ and ‘‘F’’ a
typographical error which occurred
during the printing process is corrected.
Section 176.905. In paragraph (i)(3),
we are correcting the reference ‘‘46 CFR
70.10–44’’ to read ‘‘46 CFR 70.10–1’’.
Part 177
Section 177.848. We are reinstating a
prohibition for storing, loading and
transporting cyanides and cyanide
mixtures or solutions with acids if a
mixture of the materials would generate
hydrogen cyanide. In a final rule
published January 24, 2005, under
Docket No. PHMSA 03–16370 (HM–233;
70 FR 3304), we revised paragraph (c)
by adding a cross-reference to the
§ 173.12(e) exceptions from segregation
requirements for storage, loading and
transportation of cyanides, cyanide
mixture or solutions with acids. We
inadvertently removed the prohibition
for loading, storage and transportation
of cyanides, cyanide mixtures or
solutions with acids when, if mixed the
materials would generate hydrogen
cyanide. In this final rule, we are
reinstating the prohibition.
Part 178
Section 178.245–1. In paragraph (e),
we are correcting the reference
‘‘§ 173.300’’ to read ‘‘§ 173.115’’.
Section 178.345–1. In paragraph (c),
in the definition for ‘‘MAWP,’’ we are
correcting the reference ‘‘§ 178.345–
1(k)’’ to read ‘‘§ 178.320(a)’’.

Section 178.350. We are revising this
section to clarify that the term
‘‘Packaging manufacturer’’ used in
§ 178.3, for purposes of this section,
means the person certifying that the
package meets all requirements of
§ 173.412.
Part 180
Section 180.352. On December 20,
2004, we published a final rule under
Docket Number RSPA–04–17036 (HM–
215G). In that final rule, we added a
new paragraph (d)(i)(iv) 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 (69 FR 76186). However, an
editorial error occurred during the
printing process that caused the text in
revised paragraphs (e) and (f) and the
text in new paragraph (g) to be
inadvertently omitted. The original
intent of this change was to keep the
‘‘repair’’ and ‘‘routine maintenance’’
requirements in this section separate.
Therefore, we are revising § 180.352 to
correct this editorial error.
III. Regulatory Analyses and Notices
levels of government; (2) imposes
substantial direct compliance costs on
State and local governments; or (3)
preempts State law. 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.
D. Executive Order 13175
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.
E. Regulatory Flexibility Act, Executive
Order 13272, and DOT Procedures and
Policies
A. Statutory/Legal Authority for This
Rulemaking
This final rule is published under
authority of Federal hazardous materials
transportation law (Federal hazmat law;
49 U.S.C. 5101 et seq.). Section 5103(b)
of Federal hazmat law authorizes the
Secretary of Transportation to prescribe
regulations for the safe transportation,
including security, of hazardous
materials in intrastate, interstate, and
foreign commerce.
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.
B. 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). Because this rule has no
economic impact, it is not necessary to
prepare a regulatory impact analysis.
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.
C. Executive Order 13132
This 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

A regulation identifier number (RIN)
is assigned to each regulatory action
listed in the Unified Agenda of Federal
Regulations. The Regulatory Information

I 10. In § 106.10 paragraph (a)
introductory text, and (b)(2) are revised
to read as follows:
§ 106.10
Process for issuing rules.
(a) PHMSA (‘‘we’’) uses informal
rulemaking procedures under the
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C.
553) to add, amend, or delete
regulations. To propose or adopt
changes to a regulation, PHMSA may
issue one or more of the following
documents. We publish the following
rulemaking documents in the Federal
Register unless we name and personally
serve a copy of a rule on every person
subject to it:
*
*
*
*
*
(b) * * *
(2) PHMSA’s legal authority for
issuing the rulemaking document.
*
*
*
*
*
I 11. Section 106.45 is revised to read
as follows:
§ 106.45
Tracking rulemaking actions.
The following identifying numbers
allow you to track PHMSA’s rulemaking
activities:
(a) Docket number. We assign an
identifying number, called a docket
E:\FR\FM\23SER3.SGM
23SER3
Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 184 / Friday, September 23, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
number, to each rulemaking proceeding.
Each rulemaking document that PHMSA
issues in a particular rulemaking
proceeding will display the same docket
number. This number allows you to do
the following:
(1) Associate related documents that
appear in the Federal Register.
(2) Search the DOT Docket
Management System (‘‘DMS’’) for
information on particular rulemaking
proceedings—including notices of
proposed rulemaking, public comments,
petitions for rulemaking, appeals,
records of additional rulemaking
proceedings and final rules. There are
two ways you can search the DMS:
(i) Visit the public docket room and
review and copy any docketed materials
during regular business hours. The DOT
Docket Management System is located
at the U.S. Department of
Transportation, Plaza Level 401, 400 7th
Street, SW., Washington, DC 20590–
0001.
(ii) View and download docketed
materials through the Internet at
https://dms.dot.gov.
(b) Regulation identifier number. The
Department of Transportation publishes
a semiannual agenda of all current and
projected Department of Transportation
rulemakings, reviews of existing
regulations, and completed actions. This
semiannual agenda appears in the
Unified Agenda of Federal Regulations
that is published in the Federal Register
in April and October of each year. The
semiannual agenda tells the public
about the Department’s—including
PHMSA’s—regulatory activities. The
Department assigns a regulation
identifier number (RIN) to each
individual rulemaking proceeding in the
semiannual agenda. This number
appears on all rulemaking documents
published in the Federal Register and
makes it easy for you to track those
rulemaking proceedings in both the
Federal Register and the semiannual
regulatory agenda itself, as well as to
locate all documents in the Docket
Management System pertaining to a
particular rulemaking.
I 12. Section 106.95 is revised to read
as follows:
§ 106.95 Requesting a change to the
regulations.
You may ask PHMSA to add, amend,
or delete a regulation by filing a petition
for rulemaking as follows:
(a) For regulations in 49 CFR parts
110, 130, 171 through 180, submit the
petition to: Office of Hazardous
Materials Standards, Pipeline and
Hazardous Materials Safety

I 13. Section 106.120 is revised to read
as follows:
§ 106.120
Appeal deadline.
(a) Appeal of a final rule or
withdrawal of a notice of proposed
rulemaking. If you appeal PHMSA’s
issuance of a final rule or PHMSA’s
withdrawal of a proposed rulemaking,
your appeal document must reach us no
later than 30 days after the date PHMSA
published the regulation or the
withdrawal notice in the Federal
Register. After that time, PHMSA will
consider your appeal to be a petition for
rulemaking under § 106.100.
(b) Appeal of a decision. If you appeal
PHMSA’s decision on a petition for
rulemaking, your appeal document must
reach us no later than 30 days from the

ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
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). In addition, this final rule revises references to
the former Research and Special Programs Administration to reflect the
creation of Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration. The
intended effect of this rule is to enhance the accuracy, and reduce
misunderstandings of the regulations. The amendments contained in this
rule are minor changes and do not impose new requirements.
DATES: Effective date: September 28, 2005.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kurt Eichenlaub, Office of Hazardous
Materials Standards, (202) 366-8553, Pipeline and Hazardous Materials
Safety Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation, 400 Seventh
Street, SW., Washington, DC 20590-0001.
I. Background
The Norman Y. Mineta Research and Special Programs Improvement Act
of 2004 reorganized the Department of Transportation's pipeline and
hazardous materials safety programs that were formerly a part of the
Research and Special Programs Administration (RSPA). The Act created
the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA, we),
a separate operating administration. PHMSA annually reviews the
Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR parts 171-180) to identify
errors that may confuse readers. In this final rule, we revise all
references to RSPA to reflect the creation of PHMSA. This final rule
also corrects the following inaccuracies: typographical and printing
errors; incorrect references to regulations in the CFR; inaccurate
office names, routing symbols, and e-mail addresses; inconsistent use
of terminology; and misstatements of certain regulatory requirements.
Because these amendments do not impose new requirements, notice and
public procedure are unnecessary. By making these amendments effective
without the customary 30-day delay following publication, the changes
will appear in the next revision of 49 CFR.
The following is a summary by section of the changes made in this
final rule. It does not discuss all minor editorial corrections (e.g.,
punctuation errors), and certain other minor adjustments to enhance the
clarity of the HMR (e.g., corrections to office names, routing symbols
and e-mail addresses).
II. Section-by-Section Review
Part 107
Appendix A to Subpart D of Part 107: In Appendix A to Subpart D of
Part 107, in section IV, paragraph C, we are revising the reference to
``49 U.S.C. 5213(a)'' to read ``49 U.S.C. 5123(a)''.
Part 171
Section 171.6. In paragraph (b)(2), the table of OMB control
numbers is revised to reflect current control numbers, report titles,
and affected sections for collections of information.
Section 171.8. In the definition for ``Maximum Allowable Working
Pressure or MAWP,'' we are correcting the reference ``178.320(c)'' to
read ``Sec. 178.320(a)''.
Section 171.11. In paragraph (d)(6)(iv), we are amending the text
by removing ``radioactive material'' and adding ``limited quantities of
radioactive material'' in its place.
Part 172
Section 172.101. The Hazardous Materials Table (HMT). We are
correcting entries in the HMT as follows:
The entry ``Adhesives, containing a flammable liquid,''
UN1133, PG I, II and III is revised by correcting the Column (2)
Hazardous materials description and proper shipping name to read
``Adhesives, containing a flammable liquid.'' In addition, for the
Packing Group II entry, in the Column (10A) Vessel stowage
``location,'' the entry ``A'' is revised to read ``B''. The correction
appears as a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking.
The entry ``Aerosols, corrosive, Packing Group II or III,
(each not exceeding 1 L capacity),'' UN1950 is revised by correcting
the Column (2) Hazardous materials description and proper shipping name
to read ``Aerosols, corrosive, Packing Group II or III, (each not
exceeding 1 L capacity).'' The correction appears as a ``Remove/Add''
in this rulemaking.
The entry ``Aerosols, flammable, (each not exceeding 1 L
capacity),'' UN1950 is revised by correcting the Column (2) Hazardous
materials description and proper shipping name to read ``Aerosols,
flammable, (each not exceeding 1 L capacity).'' The correction appears
as a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking.
The entry ``Aerosols, flammable, n.o.s. (engine starting
fluid) (each not exceeding 1 L capacity),'' UN1950 is revised by
correcting the Column (2) Hazardous materials description and proper
shipping name to read ``Aerosols, flammable, n.o.s. (engine starting
fluid) (each not exceeding 1 L capacity).'' The correction appears as a
``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking.
The entry ``Aerosols, non-flammable, (each not exceeding 1
L capacity),'' UN1950 is revised by correcting the Column (2) Hazardous
materials description and proper shipping name to read ``Aerosols, non-
flammable, (each not exceeding 1 L capacity).'' The correction appears
as a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking.
The entry ``Aerosols, poison, each not exceeding 1 L
capacity,'' UN1950 is revised by correcting the Column (2) Hazardous
materials description and proper shipping name to read ``Aerosols,
poison, each not exceeding 1 L capacity.'' The correction appears as a
``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking.
The entry ``Alkaloids, solid, n.o.s. or Alkaloid salts,
solid, n.o.s. poisonous,'' UN1544 is revised by correcting the Column
(2) Hazardous materials description and proper shipping name to read
``Alkaloids, solid, n.o.s. or Alkaloid salts, solid, n.o.s.
poisonous.'' In addition, for the Packing Group II entry, the Column
(7) Special provision entry ``1P4'' is revised to read ``IP4.'' The
correction appears as a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking.
The entry ``Aluminum alkyl halides, solid,'' UN3461 is
revised by correcting the Column (6) Label Codes entry ``4.23'' to read
``4.3''.
The entry ``Ammonium nitrate emulsion or Ammonium nitrate
suspension or Ammonium nitrate gel, intermediate for blasting
explosives,'' UN3375 is revised by correcting the Column (10B) Vessel
stowage ``Other'' entry ``60, 66, 124'' to read ``48, 59, 60, 66,
124''.
The entry ``Cartridges, safety, see Cartridges for
weapons, other than blank or Cartridges, power device (UN 0323)'' is
revised by correcting the
[[Page 56085]]
Column (2) Hazardous materials description and proper shipping name to
read ``Cartridges, safety, see Cartridges for weapons, inert
projectile, or Cartridges, small arms or Cartridges, power device (UN
0323).'' The correction appears as a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking.
The entry ``Cartridges, sporting, see Cartridges for
weapons, other than blank'' is revised by correcting the Column (2)
Hazardous materials description and proper shipping name to read
``Cartridges, sporting, see Cartridges for weapons, inert projectile,
or Cartridges, small arms.'' The correction appears as a ``Remove/Add''
in this rulemaking.
The entry ``Chlorate and magnesium chloride mixture,
solid,'' UN1459, Packing Group III is removed. This entry was
inadvertently printed twice in the HMT.
The entry ``Chlorate of potash, see Potassium chlorate,''
is removed and added back. The correction appears as a ``Remove/Add''
in this rulemaking. This was done to assist the Federal Register in
locating the correct ``Chlorate and magnesium chloride mixture,
solid,'' UN1459, Packing Group III entry for removal. (see above)
The entry ``Chloroacetophenone, CN, liquid,'' UN3416 is
revised by correcting the Column (2) Hazardous materials description

correcting Column (7) to remove obsolete special provisions ``T 31''
and ``T 30.''
The entry ``Etching acid, liquid, n.o.s., see Hydrofluoric
acid, solution etc.'' is revised by correcting the Column (2) Hazardous
materials description and proper shipping name to read ``Etching acid,

a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking.
The entry ``Fissile radioactive materials, see Radioactive
material, fissile, n.o.s.'' is removed.
The entry ``Gasoline,'' UN1203 is revised by correcting
Column (7) Special provisions entries ``144, B33, T8'' to read ``144,
B1, B33, T8.''
The entry ``Hydrogen iodid solution, see Hydriodic acid,''
is revised by correcting the Column (2) Hazardous materials description
and proper shipping name to read ``Hydrogen iodide solution, see
Hydriodic acid.'' The correction appears as a ``Remove/Add'' in this
rulemaking.
The entry ``Nitrocresols, solid,'' UN2446 is revised by
correcting the Column (7) Special provision entry ``TP3'' to read

respectively.
The entry ``Receptacles, small, containing gas (gas
cartridges) non-flammable, without release device, not refillable and
not exceeding 1 L capacity'' is added. This entry was inadvertently
removed under Docket HM-215G (70 FR 34381).
The entry ``Samples, explosive, other than initiating
explosives,'' UN1090 is revised by correcting the Column (2) Hazardous

explosive, other than initiating explosives.'' In addition, the Column
(4) entry ``UN1090'' is revised to read ``UN0190'' and the Column 10B
entry ``12E'' is removed. The correction appears as a ``Remove/Add'' in
this rulemaking.
The entry ``Selenium compound, liquid, n.o.s.,'' is
revised by correcting the Column (7) Special provision entry ``TP14''
to read ``T14.''
The entry ``Sulfuric acid, fuming with 30 percent or more

wetted, with not less than 10% water by mass.'' The correction appears
as a ``Remove/Add'' in this rulemaking.
Section 172.102. In paragraph (c)(1), in Special provision 144, we
are correcting the reference ``40 CFR 180.12'' to read ``40 CFR
280.12''. In paragraph (c)(1), we are editorially revising Special
provision 132 for clarity. In paragraph (c)(4), in the Table 1.--IB
CODES (IBC CODES), in the IB2 entry, a typographical error is
corrected.
Section 172.203. We are removing a requirement in paragraph (m) to
include the word ``Poison'' or ``Toxic'' on a shipping paper if the
fact that it is a poison is not disclosed in the shipping name or class
entry. The requirement is no longer necessary because Sec.
172.202(a)(2) requires the subsidiary hazard class(es) to be entered
following the primary hazard class or division number.
Section 172.322. We are adding a new paragraph (f) to reference the
exception for marine pollutants in Sec. 171.4(c).
Part 173
Section 173.3. In Sec. 173.3, paragraph (c) introductory text is
amended to include the proper tense of the word ``place.'' In addition,
grammatical errors were corrected for clarity.
Section 173.4. In paragraph (a) (10), we are revising the text to
remove an obsolete package marking statement.
Section 173.134. In paragraph (c)(1)(ii), we are correcting the
reference ``29 CFR 1910.103'' to read ``29 CFR 1910.1030''.
Section 173.222. In paragraph (c)(2), we are correcting the
conversion ``0.5 L (0.3 gallons)'' to read ``0.5 L (0.1 gallon)''.
Section 173.227. In Sec. 173.227, in the section heading, a
typographical error is corrected.
Section 173.315. Section 173.315(a) is revised to clarify that UN
portable tanks used to transport liquefied gas must be loaded and
offered in accordance with Special Provision T50 in Sec. 172.102 and
must otherwise comply with the requirements of Sec. 173.315.
Section 173.403. In the definition for ``Radioactive instrument or
article,'' we are correcting the wording ``such as an instrument such
as an instrument'' to read ``such as an instrument''.
Section 173.418. We are revising paragraph (e) to remove the
reference to Column (8) of the HMT for authorized Type B packagings for
pyrophoric Class 7 (radioactive) materials, because the entries for
pyrophoric Class 7
[[Page 56086]]
(radioactive) materials no longer appear in the HMT.
Section 173.421. We are correcting paragraph (a)(5) to state that a
package may not contain fissile material unless excepted by Sec.
173.453. Under Sec. 173.421(a)(5) a package is limited to contain 15
grams or less of uranium-235. This package exception limit is actually
in Sec. 173.453 not Sec. 173.426, and only applies to packages
containing fissile material.
Section 173.427. In paragraph (b)(5)(i), we are correcting the
reference ``(Sec. Sec. 179.200, 179.201, 179.202 of this subchapter)''
to read ``(Sec. Sec. 173.31, and 179.201-1 to 179.201-11 of this
subchapter)''.
Section 173.465. In paragraph (c)(1), we are correcting the
reference to ``Table 12'' to read ``Table 10''. Additionally, in column
one of Table 10, we are correcting the wording ``Packaging mass'' to
read ``Package mass''.
Part 176
Section 176.144. In Sec. 176.144, in paragraph (a), in the ``TABLE
176.144(a)--AUTHORIZED MIXED STOWAGE FOR EXPLOSIVES,'' for
compatibility groups ``E'' and ``F'' a typographical error which
occurred during the printing process is corrected.
Section 176.905. In paragraph (i)(3), we are correcting the
reference ``46 CFR 70.10-44'' to read ``46 CFR 70.10-1''.
Part 177
Section 177.848. We are reinstating a prohibition for storing,
loading and transporting cyanides and cyanide mixtures or solutions
with acids if a mixture of the materials would generate hydrogen
cyanide. In a final rule published January 24, 2005, under Docket No.
PHMSA 03-16370 (HM-233; 70 FR 3304), we revised paragraph (c) by adding
a cross-reference to the Sec. 173.12(e) exceptions from segregation
requirements for storage, loading and transportation of cyanides,
cyanide mixture or solutions with acids. We inadvertently removed the
prohibition for loading, storage and transportation of cyanides,
cyanide mixtures or solutions with acids when, if mixed the materials
would generate hydrogen cyanide. In this final rule, we are reinstating
the prohibition.
Part 178
Section 178.245-1. In paragraph (e), we are correcting the
reference ``Sec. 173.300'' to read ``Sec. 173.115''.
Section 178.345-1. In paragraph (c), in the definition for
``MAWP,'' we are correcting the reference ``Sec. 178.345-1(k)'' to
read ``Sec. 178.320(a)''.
Section 178.350. We are revising this section to clarify that the
term ``Packaging manufacturer'' used in Sec. 178.3, for purposes of
this section, means the person certifying that the package meets all
requirements of Sec. 173.412.
Part 180
Section 180.352. On December 20, 2004, we published a final rule
under Docket Number RSPA-04-17036 (HM-215G). In that final rule, we
added a new paragraph (d)(i)(iv) 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 (69 FR 76186). However, an editorial error occurred
during the printing process that caused the text in revised paragraphs
(e) and (f) and the text in new paragraph (g) to be inadvertently
omitted. The original intent of this change was to keep the ``repair''
and ``routine maintenance'' requirements in this section separate.
Therefore, we are revising Sec. 180.352 to correct this editorial
error.
III. Regulatory Analyses and Notices
A. Statutory/Legal Authority for This Rulemaking
This final rule is published under authority of Federal hazardous
materials transportation law (Federal hazmat law; 49 U.S.C. 5101 et
seq.). Section 5103(b) of Federal hazmat law authorizes the Secretary
of Transportation to prescribe regulations for the safe transportation,
including security, of hazardous materials in intrastate, interstate,
and foreign commerce.
B. 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). Because this rule has no
economic impact, it is not necessary to prepare a regulatory impact
analysis.
C. Executive Order 13132
This 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; (2) imposes substantial direct compliance
costs on State and local governments; or (3) preempts State law. 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.
D. Executive Order 13175
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.
E. 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.
F. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995
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.
G. Paperwork Reduction Act
There are no new information collection requirements in this final
rule.
H. Environmental Impact Analysis
There are no environmental impacts associated with this final rule.
I. 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
[[Page 56087]]
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.

11. Section 106.45 is revised to read as follows:
Sec. 106.45 Tracking rulemaking actions.
The following identifying numbers allow you to track PHMSA's
rulemaking activities:
(a) Docket number. We assign an identifying number, called a docket
[[Page 56089]]
number, to each rulemaking proceeding. Each rulemaking document that
PHMSA issues in a particular rulemaking proceeding will display the
same docket number. This number allows you to do the following:
(1) Associate related documents that appear in the Federal
Register.
(2) Search the DOT Docket Management System (``DMS'') for
information on particular rulemaking proceedings--including notices of
proposed rulemaking, public comments, petitions for rulemaking,
appeals, records of additional rulemaking proceedings and final rules.
There are two ways you can search the DMS:
(i) Visit the public docket room and review and copy any docketed
materials during regular business hours. The DOT Docket Management
System is located at the U.S. Department of Transportation, Plaza Level
401, 400 7th Street, SW., Washington, DC 20590-0001.
(ii) View and download docketed materials through the Internet at
https://dms.dot.gov.
(b) Regulation identifier number. The Department of Transportation
publishes a semiannual agenda of all current and projected Department
of Transportation rulemakings, reviews of existing regulations, and
completed actions. This semiannual agenda appears in the Unified Agenda
of Federal Regulations that is published in the Federal Register in
April and October of each year. The semiannual agenda tells the public
about the Department's--including PHMSA's--regulatory activities. The
Department assigns a regulation identifier number (RIN) to each
individual rulemaking proceeding in the semiannual agenda. This number
appears on all rulemaking documents published in the Federal Register
and makes it easy for you to track those rulemaking proceedings in both
the Federal Register and the semiannual regulatory agenda itself, as
well as to locate all documents in the Docket Management System
pertaining to a particular rulemaking.
