hazardous materials into bulk
packagings are accurate and in
conformance with the performance
standards in the HMR.
(3) Each meter prover must
successfully complete the test and
inspection and must be marked in
accordance with § 180.415(b) and in
accordance with § 173.5a.
(4) Each owner must retain a record
of the most recent visual inspection and
pressure test until the meter prover is
requalified.
Affected Public: Owners of meter
provers used to measure liquid
hazardous materials flow into bulk
packagings such as cargo tanks and
portable tanks.
Annual Reporting and Recordkeeping
Burden:
Number of Respondents: 50.
Total Annual Responses: 250.
Total Annual Burden Hours: 175.
Frequency of collection: On occasion.
Title: Requirements for United
Nations (UN) Cylinders.
OMB Control Number: 2137–0621.
Summary: This information collection
and recordkeeping burden is the result
of efforts to amend the HMR to adopt
standards for the design, construction,
maintenance and use of cylinders and
multiple-element gas containers
(MEGCs) based on the standards
contained in the United Nations (UN)
Recommendations on the Transport of
Dangerous Goods. Aligning the HMR
with the UN Recommendations
promotes flexibility, permits the use of
technological advances for the
manufacture of the pressure receptacles,
provides for a broader selection of
pressure receptacles, reduces the need
for special permits, and facilitates
international commerce in the
transportation of compressed gases.
Information collection requirements
address domestic and international
manufacturers of cylinders that request
approval by the approval agency for
cylinder design types. The approval
process for each cylinder design type
includes review, filing, and
recordkeeping of the approval
application. The approval agency is
required to maintain a set of the
approved drawings and calculations for
each design it reviews and a copy of
each initial design type approval
certificate approved by the Associate
Administrator for not less than 20 years.
Affected Public: Fillers, owners, users,
and retesters of UN cylinders.

SUMMARY:
On
February 4, 2011, the Canadian Nuclear
Safety Commission (CNSC) issued a
transport license and certificate to Bruce
Power for the transport to Sweden of 16
radioactively contaminated
decommissioned steam generator large
components originally installed in the
Bruce Power nuclear power plant near
Tiverton, Ontario. The stated purpose of
the transport is to conduct recycling and

volume reduction activities in Sweden.
Under the terms of the license and
certificate, the transport of the steam
generators would be conducted in
accordance with the special
arrangement provisions of the
International Atomic Energy Agency
‘‘Regulations for the Safe Transport of
Radioactive Material’’ (TS–R–1). The
initial leg of transport would be by road
and entirely within Canada. The steam
generators would then be loaded on a
vessel in Owen Sound, Ontario for
transport to Sweden via Lake Huron,
Lake Erie, and Lake Ontario and
interconnecting waterways as well as
the St. Lawrence River. At various times
the vessel would necessarily enter U.S.
waters. Therefore, under IAEA special
arrangement provisions, the U.S. would
need to revalidate the Canadian
certificate in order to permit transport.
PHMSA is recognized as the IAEA
Competent Authority for the U.S. and is
responsible for competent authority
approval in these cases.
An application requesting the U.S.
competent authority approval of the
Canadian certificate was received from
Bruce Power on Thursday, February 24,
2011. All relevant documents will be
made available for public review online
in the docket for this notice. PHMSA
intends to conduct a fully independent
review of the proposed transport
including safety, environmental, and
fitness assessments, in consultation
with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission and U.S. Coast Guard.
PHMSA must approve, deny, or
institute additional controls regarding
the transport in the request for
competent authority approval.
Issued in Washington, DC, on March 23,
2011 under authority delegated in 49 CFR
