PHMSA Proposed Rule on Storing Explosives During Transportation
The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) in coordination with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), is proposing to enhance existing attendance requirements for explosives stored during transportation by designating the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standard 498 as the Federally approved standard for the construction and maintenance of safe havens used for unattended storage of Division 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 explosives. Comments are due September 27, 2010. http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2010/2010-18368.html
