RIN 2137–AE49
Hazardous Materials: Chemical
Oxygen Generators
AGENCY: Pipeline and Hazardous
Materials Safety Administration
(PHMSA).
ACTION: Direct final rule.
SUMMARY: This direct final rule amends
the Hazardous Materials Regulations to
revise the quantity limitation from 25 kg
‘‘gross’’ to 25 kg ‘‘net’’ for packages of
chemical oxygen generators transported
aboard cargo aircraft only. The intended
effect of this rule is to provide
regulatory relief by raising the quantity
threshold for shipments of chemical
oxygen generators transported aboard
cargo aircraft only. This action is
necessary to address difficulties
concerning implementation and
compliance with the requirements for
the transportation of chemical oxygen
generators in outer packagings meeting
certain flame penetration resistance
standards and thermal protection
capabilities, as evidenced by comments
received from the hazardous materials
industry and other interested parties.
The amendment contained in this rule
is a minor substantive change, in the
public interest, and unlikely to result in
adverse comment.
DATES: This direct final rule is effective
November 16, 2009, unless an adverse
comment or notice of intent to file an
adverse comment is received by
November 16, 2009. PHMSA will
publish in the Federal Register a timely
document confirming the effective date
of this final rule.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments

following methods:

I. Background
The National Transportation Safety
Board found that one of the probable
causes of the May 11, 1996 crash of
ValuJet Airlines flight No. 596 was a fire
in the airplane’s cargo compartment that
was initiated and enhanced by the
actuation of one or more chemical
oxygen generators that were being
improperly carried as cargo. Following
that tragedy, in which 110 lives were
lost, the Department of Transportation:
—Prohibited the transportation of
chemical oxygen generators
(including personal-use chemical
oxygen generators) on board
passenger-carrying aircraft and the
transportation of spent chemical
oxygen generators on both passengercarrying and cargo-only aircraft, 61 FR
26418 (May 24, 1996), 61 FR 68952
(Dec. 30, 1996), 64 FR 45388 (Aug. 19,
1999);
—Issued standards governing the
transportation of chemical oxygen
generators on cargo-only aircraft (and
by motor vehicle, rail car and vessel),
including the requirement for an
approval issued by the Research and
Special Programs Administration
