On Friday the OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) announced that it had approved a notice of proposed rulemaking from the Surface Transportation Board (STB) on “Eliminating Regulatory Barriers to Competition: Review of 49 CFR Part 1144”. The NPRM was sent to OIRA on December 1st, 2025. It will likely be published in the Federal Register in the next week or two.
This rulemaking was not listed in the Spring 2025 Unified Agenda, but it looks like this is the STB’s implementation of the requirements of EO 14267, Reducing Anti-Competitive Regulatory Barriers.
It does not look like this rulemaking will have any specific
impact on hazmat transportation issues, so I will probably not be covering this
rulemaking in any detail. I would expect to announce it’s publication in the
appropriate Short Takes post.
