ACTION: Dismissal of petition for reconsideration of an administrative determination of preemption. AGENCY: This proceeding was initiated in February 1998, when the National Tank Truck Carriers, Inc. (NTTC) applied to the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration 1 (PHMSA) for a determination that the HMTA preempted certain marking and record keeping requirements of the New York State Department of khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: 1 At the time of NTTC’s application, PHMSA did not exist. PHMSA was created on February 20, 2005, when the Secretary of Transportation redelegated hazardous materials safety functions from the Research and Special Programs Administration (RSPA) to PHMSA’s Administrator. For consistency, the terms ‘‘PHMSA,’’ ‘‘the agency,’’ and ‘‘we’’ are used throughout this decision, regardless of whether an action was taken by RSPA before February 20, 2005, or by PHMSA after that date.

Nature of the special permits thereof To modify the special permit to waive certain marking and shipping paper requirements. (mode 5). To modify the special permit to authorize use the manufacture, marking, sale, and use of non-DOT specification fully wrapped carbon-fiber reinforced aluminum lined cylinders which are manifolded and permanently mounted in a protective frame for the transportation in commerce of the materials authorized by this special permit and authorize the use of a pneumatic proof pressure test for periodic requalification. (modes 1, 2, 3, 4). To modify the special permit by authorizing additional carbon steels specified for the cylindrical shell of the pressure vessel. (modes 1, 2, 3). To modify the special permit to authorize primers to be shipped without an EX approval. (mode 1). To modify the special permit to authorize additional 2.3 hazmat. (modes 1, 3, 4). To modify the special permit to remove specific manufacturer applicability to the manufacture of authorized cylinders. (modes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5). To modify the special permit to authorize ISO 9712 as alternative to ISO 11515:2013 Section 9.1.1 certification. (modes 1, 2, 3, 4). Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC). PHMSA found that the HMTA preempted the NYSDEC requirements because the requirements were not substantively the same as requirements in the HMR on the marking, maintaining, repairing, or testing of a package or container that is represented, marked, certified, or sold as qualified for transporting hazardous material. NYSDEC’s petition for reconsideration of that decision is dismissed on the grounds of mootness. NYSDEC has made significant revisions to its regulations, and the revised rules do not appear to impose the same requirements on regulated entities as the previous version of the rules that were challenged in this proceeding. It therefore does not appear that reconsidering PHMSA’s preemption determination regarding the now-superseded NYSDEC rules would have any practical effect.

Mode Affected: Highway. I. Background This proceeding was initiated in February 1998, when NTTC applied to PHMSA for a determination that the HMTA preempted certain marking and record keeping requirements of NYSDEC. After NTTC filed its application, two key rulemakings occurred that delayed PHMSA’s decision on NTTC’s claims. The rulemakings, one initiated by PHMSA, and the other by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), although not related, addressed many of the issues raised in NTTC’s application. The agencies’ rulemaking activities spanned several years and culminated in December 2009, when EPA issued a rule change and clarification of its rules.3 2 The NYSDEC repealed and replaced Part 230, with an effective date of February 11, 2021. The marking requirement in 6 NYCRR 230.4(a)(3), as amended, was recodified in 6 NYCRR 230.6(a)(2). The recordkeeping and retention requirements of 6 NYCRR 230.6(b) and (c), as amended, were recodified in 6 NYCRR 230.7(a)(1) and (a)(2), respectively. 3 Final Rule, 73 FR 1916 (January 10, 2008); corrections, 73 FR 12275 (March 7, 2008); Final E:\FR\FM\07JNN1.SGM Continued 07JNN1
