Holgate, OH 43527
Dear Mr. Buchholz:
This is in response to your September 19, 2002 letter regarding applicability of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180). Specifically you ask if intra-plant movement of hazardous material that cross a public railroad line is subject to the HMR?
The answer is yes. An intra-plant movement of hazardous material that utilizes or crosses a public railroad line is subject to the HMR during that portion of the movement.
I hope this information is helpful. If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact this office.
Sincerely,
Delmer F. Billings
Chief, Standards Development
Office of Hazardous Materials Standards
