for, respond to, and recover from a
threat to public health, welfare, or the
environment caused by actual or
potential oil and hazardous materials
incidents resulting from Hurricane
Michael.
On October 10, 2018, the President
issued an Emergency Declaration for
Hurricane Michael for Georgia for the
counties of Appling, Atkinson, Bacon,
Baker, Baldwin, Ben Hill, Berrien, Bibb,
Bleckley, Brantley, Brooks, Bryan,

This Waiver Order covers all areas
identified in the declaration, as
amended. Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 5103(c),
PHMSA has authority delegated by the
Secretary (49 CFR 1.97(b)(3)) to waive
compliance with any part of the HMR
provided that the grant of the waiver is:
(1) In the public interest; (2) not
inconsistent with the safety of
transporting hazardous materials; and
(3) necessary to facilitate the safe
movement of hazardous materials into,
from, and within an area of a major
disaster or emergency that has been
declared under the Robert T. Stafford
Disaster Relief and Emergency
Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq.).
Given the continuing impacts caused
by Hurricane Michael, PHMSA’s
Administrator has determined that
regulatory relief is in the public interest
and necessary to ensure the safe
transportation in commerce of
hazardous materials while the EPA and
USCG execute their recovery and
cleanup efforts in Georgia. Specifically,
PHMSA’s Administrator finds that
issuing this Waiver Order will allow the
EPA and USCG to conduct their
Emergency Support Function #10
response activities under the National
Response Framework to safely remove,
transport, and dispose of hazardous

materials. By execution of this Waiver
Order, persons conducting operations
under the direction of EPA Region 4 or
USCG Seventh or Eighth Districts
within the Hurricane Michael
emergency area of Georgia are
authorized to offer and transport nonradioactive hazardous materials under
alternative safety requirements imposed
by EPA Region 4 or USCG Seventh or
Eighth Districts when compliance with
the HMR is not practicable. Under this
Waiver Order, non-radioactive
hazardous materials may be transported
to staging areas within 50 miles of the
point of origin. Further transportation of
the hazardous materials from staging
areas must be in full compliance with
the HMR.
This Waiver Order is effective
immediately and shall remain in effect
for 30 days from the date of issuance.
Issued in Washington, DC, on October 11,
2018.

Administrator, Pipeline and Hazardous
Materials Safety Administration.
