(vii) The source or modification
would be a major stationary source or
major modification only if fugitive

[Docket No. PHMSA–2009–0238 (HM–224G)]
RIN 2137–AE49
Hazardous Materials: Chemical
Oxygen Generators
AGENCY: Pipeline and Hazardous
Materials Safety Administration
(PHMSA).
ACTION: Final rule; confirmation of
effective date.
SUMMARY: PHMSA is confirming the
effective date of its direct final rule,
published under Docket No. PHMSA–
2009–0238 (HM–224G) on October 15,
2009, to amend the Hazardous Materials
Regulations by revising the quantity
limitation from 25 kg ‘‘gross’’ to 25 kg
‘‘net’’ for packages of chemical oxygen
generators transported aboard cargo
aircraft only. The direct final rule stated
that it would become effective on
November 16, 2009 unless an adverse
comment or notice of intent to file an
adverse comment was received by
November 16, 2009. PHMSA did not
receive any adverse comments or notice
of intent to file an adverse comment to
its October 15, 2009 direct final rule.
DATES: The November 16, 2009 effective
date of the direct final rule published on
October 15, 2009 (74 FR 52896), is
confirmed.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
On January 31, 2007, PHMSA issued
a final rule under Docket No. RSPA–04–
17664 (HM–224B) to enhance the safety
standards for transportation by air of
compressed oxygen, other oxidizing
gases, and chemical oxygen generators
(72 FR 4442). Specifically, the final rule
amended the HMR to require cylinders
of compressed oxygen and chemical
oxygen generators to be transported in
an outer packaging that: (1) Meets the
same flame penetration resistance
standards as required for cargo
compartment sidewalls and ceiling
panels in transport category airplanes;
and (2) provides certain thermal
protection capabilities so as to retain its
contents during an otherwise
controllable cargo compartment fire.
In response to a petition, PHMSA
determined it was necessary to revise
the quantity limitation for packages of
chemical oxygen generators transported
aboard cargo aircraft only from 25
kilograms ‘‘gross’’ to 25 kilograms ‘‘net,’’
and published a direct final rule in the
Federal Register on October 15, 2009.
PHMSA stated in the direct final rule
that it would consider as adverse
comments only those comments that
explain why a rule would be
inappropriate, or would be ineffective or
unacceptable without a change. PHMSA
did not receive an adverse comment or
notice of intent to file an adverse
comment in response to the direct final
rule. In this present notice, PHMSA is
confirming that the effective date for the
October 15, 2009 direct final rule is
November 16, 2009.
