The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) is changing how companies renew special permits and approvals.
Why it matters: This is a minor administrative change intended to make the renewal process more flexible for businesses by removing the strict 60-day advance filing deadline.
Who it affects
- Companies that transport hazardous materials under special permits or approvals
This is a final rule from the Department of Transportation’s PHMSA; readers should consult the Federal Register before relying on these new deadlines for compliance.
