Review – PHMSA Publishes Modal Hazmat Update NPRM

Today, DOT’s Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) in the Federal Register (89 FR 85590-85683) on “Hazardous Materials: Advancing Safety of Highway, Rail, and Vessel Transportation”. This NPRM proposes the revision of the Hazardous Materials Regulations to adopt several modal-specific amendments that would enhance the safe transportation of hazardous materials in commerce. It is based, in part, on industry rulemaking petitions.

PHMSA is soliciting public comments on these proposed rule changes. Comments may be submitted via the Federal eRulemaking Portal {www.Regulations.gov; Docket # PHMSA-2018-0080 (HM-265)}. Comments should be submitted by January 27th, 2025.

 

For more information about the proposed changes that would be made in this NPRM, see my article at CFSN Detailed Analysis - https://patrickcoyle.substack.com/p/phmsa-publishes-modal-hazmat-update - subscription required.
