    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    SUMMARY: In this final rule, RSPA is correcting editorial errors, 
    making minor regulatory changes and, in response to requests for 
    clarification, improving the clarity of certain provisions to the 
    Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR). In addition, RSPA is revising 
    legal citations in the HMR based on the codification of the hazardous 
    materials transportation laws. The intended effect of this rule is to 
    enhance accuracy and reduce misunderstandings of the HMR. The 
    amendments contained in this rule are minor editorial changes and do 
    not impose new requirements.
    
    EFFECTIVE DATE: September 26, 1994.
    
    FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jennifer Antonielli, Office of 
    Hazardous Materials Standards, (202) 366-4488, Research and Special 
    Programs Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation, 400 Seventh 
    Street, SW., Washington, DC 20590-0001.
    
    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    
    Background
    
        RSPA annually reviews the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR) to 
    detect errors which may be causing confusion to readers. Inaccuracies 
    corrected in this final rule include typographical errors, incorrect 
    references to other rules and regulations in the CFR, inconsistent use 
    of terminology, and misstatements of certain regulatory requirements. 
    In response to inquiries RSPA received concerning the clarity of 
    particular requirements specified in the HMR, certain other changes are 
    made to reduce uncertainties. In addition, RSPA is revising all legal 
    citations contained in the HMR to reflect the codification of 
    transportation laws relating to hazardous materials under 49 U.S.C. 
    5101-5127.
        Since these amendments do not impose new requirements, notice and 
    public procedure are unnecessary. For the same reason, there is good 
    cause to make these amendments effective without the customary 30-day 
    delay following publication. This will allow the changes to appear in 
    the next revision of 49 CFR.
        The following is a section-by-section summary of the amendments 
    made under this final rule. It does not discuss editorial corrections 
    (e.g., typographical, capitalization, and punctuation errors) or 
    changes to the legal citations.
    
    Part 106
    
        Section 106.3. Paragraph (b) is revised to reflect the correct 
    title of the Associate Administrator for Pipeline Safety, and a new 
    paragraph (c) is added which delegates authority to the Associate 
    Administrator for Research, Technology and Analysis.
        Appendix A to Part 106. Appendix A to part 106 is removed because 
    it duplicates the provisions in Sec. 106.3.
    
    Part 107
    
        Section 107.329. In paragraphs (a) and (b), references to 
    ``subchapter B of this chapter'' are revised to read ``this 
    subchapter''.
        Section 107.403. In paragraph (c), references to ``Director'' are 
    revised to reflect the correct title of the Associate Administrator for 
    Hazardous Materials Safety.
        Section 107.503. Paragraph (c) is revised to reflect the correct 
    reference to the ASME Certificate of Authorization.
    
    Part 171
    
        Section 171.2. The term ``rail freight car'' is replaced with 
    ``rail car''.
        Section 171.7. The entry for Compressed Gas Association is revised 
    to reflect the correct address.
        Section 171.8. In the definition of ``NPT'', the wording ``in 
    compliance with the'' is revised to read ``conforming to'' for 
    consistency.
        Section 171.11. In paragraph (d)(6)(i), the wording 
    ``Sec. 171.203(d)(1)(iii)'' is revised to reflect the correct section 
    reference.
        Section 171.12. In paragraph (d)(1), the wording 
    ``Sec. 171.203(d)(1)(iii)'' is revised to reflect the correct section 
    reference.
    
    Part 172
    
        Section 172.101. All references to ``the appendix'' in paragraph 
    (c)(8) are revised to read ``Appendix A''. In paragraph (g), the 
    reference to ``subpart D'' is revised to read ``subpart E''. In 
    addition, paragraph (d)(4) is amended to refer to ``Sec. 173.150 (e) or 
    (f)'' since both provisions set forth criteria for reclassing a 
    material as a combustible liquid.
        The Hazardous Materials Table (the Table). In the Table, the entry 
    ``Ethylene oxide and carbon dioxide mixtures, see Carbon dioxide and 
    ethylene oxide mixtures, etc.'' is removed because ``Carbon dioxide and 
    ethylene oxide mixtures'' is not listed as a proper shipping name.
        Section 172.102. Special Provision 14 is amended to clarify the 
    definition of motor fuel antiknock mixtures. Special Provision 42 is 
    removed because the same provision appears in Sec. 173.218. In Special 
    Provision B33, the phrase ``is subject to the following requirements.'' 
    is revised to read ``must conform to Table 1 as follows.'' In paragraph 
    (c)(7)(ii), the statement ``These provisions apply only to 
    transportation in IM portable tanks:'' is removed because it duplicates 
    the introductory text of paragraph (c)(7). Special Provision T31 is 
    amended by correcting the abbreviation ``kpa'' to ``kPa''. 
    Additionally, in Special Provision T31, the temperature ``65  deg.C'' 
    is revised to read ``65.6  deg.C''.
        Section 172.203. Paragraph (h)(2)(i) is amended by replacing the 
    word ``to'' with the word ``of'' preceding the words ``this 
    subchapter''.
        Section 172.505. In paragraph (a), immediately following the words 
    ``portable tank,'' the word ``and'' is removed and replaced with the 
    word ``or'' for consistency.
        Section 172.604. In paragraph (a)(3)(i), reference to ``this part 
    172'' is revised to read ``this part''.
    
    Part 173
    
        Section 173.12. Paragraph (d)(3) is removed because labpacks are 
    only authorized for transportation by highway. Therefore, these 
    requirements do not apply to marine pollutants because they are not 
    regulated when packaged in non-bulk packagings and transported by 
    highway.
        Section 173.32. The wording in paragraph (g) ``bad dents'' is 
    revised to read ``significant dents'' for consistency with paragraph 
    (e)(2)(ii). An amendment is made in paragraph (q) to correct the 
    wording ``greater to or equal to'' to read ``greater than or equal 
    to.''
        Section 173.33. In paragraph (c)(1)(iii), the word ``shipped'' is 
    revised to read ``loaded''.
        Section 173.34. Paragraph (e)(18)(i) is amended to correctly 
    reference paragraph (e)(3) instead of (a)(3).
        Section 173.116. In paragraph (a) table, ``LC50'' is corrected to 
    read ``LC50'' each place it appears.
        Section 173.133. In paragraph (b)(1)(iv) table, references to 
    ``Hazard Zone C'' and ``Hazard Zone D'' are removed because these zones 
    only apply to gases (Division 2.3) and, in the entry ``III (Hazard Zone 
    D)'' in column 2, the wording ``Packing Groups I and II, Hazard Zones 
    A, B and C'' is revised to read ``Packing Group I, Hazard Zones A and 
    B, and Packing Group II''.
        Section 173.226. In paragraph (b)(4)(ii)(A), the word ``and'' is 
    removed at the end of the sentence.
        Section 173.230. In paragraph (d), the reference to Division 
    ``6.2'' is revised to read Division ``6.1''.
        Section 173.243. In paragraph (b)(2), the wording ``cargo tanks'' 
    is added following ``DOT 412''.
        Section 173.315. In Note 15, the section reference for ``(QT) and 
    (NQT)'' marking requirements is corrected.
        Section 173.318. The word ``of'' is revised to read ``or'' in 
    paragraph (b)(1)(ii)(A). In paragraphs (b)(2)(i) (A) and (B), the words 
    ``his'' and ``this'' are removed and replaced with the word ``a''. In 
    paragraph (b)(6)(ii), the word ``tanks'' is revised to read ``a tank''. 
    Parentheses are removed from ``(MRHT)'' in paragraph (g)(2)(i).
        Appendix F to Part 173. A grammatical error is corrected in 
    paragraph 2.(e).
    
    Part 174
    
        Section 174.63. In paragraph (b), the wording ``Federal Railroad 
    Administrator'' is revised to reflect the ``Associate Administrator for 
    Safety, FRA''.
    
    Part 175
    
        Section 175.320. In paragraph (a) table, for the entry ``High 
    explosives'', in column 3, the wording ``Blasting agent n.o.s.'' is 
    revised to reflect the current shipping descriptions listed in the 
    Sec. 172.101 Table.
        Section 175.700. The second sentence is removed because it is a 
    duplicate of the first sentence.
    
    Part 176
    
        Section 176.415. In paragraph (b)(2), the wording ``or unloading'' 
    is removed the second time it appears.

    with'' is revised to read ``conform''.
        Section 178.255-5. In paragraph (b), the wording ``Every such 
    valve'' is revised to read ``Each valve''.

    Rulemaking Analyses and Notices
    
    Executive Order 12866 and DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures
    
        This final rule is not considered a significant regulatory action 
    under section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866 and, therefore, was not 
    subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget. This rule is 
    not significant according to the Regulatory Policies and Procedures of 
    the Department of Transportation (44 FR 11034). This final rule does 
    not require a Regulatory Impact Analysis, or a regulatory evaluation, 
    or an environmental assessment or impact statement under the National 
    Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.).
    
    Executive Order 12612
    
        This final rule has been analyzed in accordance with the principles 
    and criteria in Executive Order 12612 (``Federalism'') and does not 
    have sufficient federalism impacts to warrant the preparation of a 
    federalism assessment.
    
    Regulatory Flexibility Act
    
        I certify that this final rule will not have a significant economic 
    impact on a substantial number of small entities. This rule makes minor 
    editorial changes which will not impose any new requirements on persons 
    subject to the HMR; thus, there are no direct or indirect adverse 
    economic impacts for small units of government, businesses, or other 
    organizations.
    
    Paperwork Reduction Act
    
        There are no new information collection requirements in this final 
    rule.
