Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 100 / Wednesday, May 23, 2018 / Notices
daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES
announcements to emergency responder
associations, during training and
education seminars, and during
activities with State and local
government agencies. PHMSA has
established an email address for
interested persons to submit their input
(see ADDRESSES).
B. Emergency Response Guidebook
Questions
To assist in the gathering of
information, PHMSA solicits input from
ERG users on experiences using, and
concerns with, the 2012 and 2016
editions. We are interested in any
comments stakeholders and users wish
to provide, but are particularly looking
for answers to the following questions:
1. How can we make the ERG more
user-friendly for first responders during
the initial response phase of a
hazardous materials transportation
incident? Please provide examples.
2. Does ERG2016 effectively
emphasize the most useful information
for the initial response phase?
3. Have you encountered conflicting
or ambiguous guidance messages when
using the ERG and other sources of
technical information?
4. Are there ways we could improve
the White Pages? For example:
• Did you find the ‘‘How to Use this
Guidebook’’ flow chart on page 1 of
ERG2016 useful in understanding how
to use the ERG? Please explain why or
why not.
• Do you believe we should reformat
the tables, charts, and the information
they provide (i.e., Table of Placards, Rail
Identification Chart, and Road Trailer
Identification Chart)? What changes do
you think would make them more
useful, clear, and easy to read and use?
• What other identification charts
should we add, if any? What other
subject(s) should we address?
• How could we improve the
information the ERG provides on
chemical, biological, and radiological
transportation incidents? Can you
suggest information to include or
remove?
• Do you find the terms in the
Glossary appropriate and current? What
terms should we add? What terms
should we remove or change?
5. In ERG2016’s Yellow or Blue Pages,
have you found any identification
number and/or material name that
seems to be assigned to an incorrect
Guide number? If so, please note the
identification number, material name,
the Guide number, and suggest a new
Guide number with your reasons why.
6. Do the Orange Guide Pages contain
recommendations and responses that
are appropriate to the material they are
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 244001
assigned to? If not, please explain and
recommend a correction.
7. How could we change/improve the
introduction and description of the
Green Pages, or any of the following
tables?
• Table 1—‘‘Initial Isolation and
Protective Action Distances’’
• Table 2—‘‘Water Reactive Materials
Which Produce Toxic Gases’’
• Table 3—‘‘Initial Isolation and
Protective Action Distances for Different
Quantities of Six Common TIH Gases’’
8. When calling any of the Emergency
Response Telephone Numbers listed in
ERG2016, have you experienced a busy
telephone line, disconnection, or no
response? If so, please describe.
9. What format(s) of the ERG do you
use (hardcopy, electronic, online,
mobile applications, etc.), and why?
10. How often do you use the ERG in
a dangerous goods transportation
emergency?
In addition to the specific questions
listed in this notice, PHMSA is also
interested in any supporting data and
analyses that will enhance the value of
the comments submitted.
Issued in Washington, DC, on May 10,
2018.
