Applicability of the Hazardous Materials Regulations to Loading, Unloading, and Storage; Cancellation of Public Meetings

Proposed rule; cancellation of public meetings

On June 14, 2001, RSPA published a notice of proposed rulemaking to clarify the applicability of the Hazardous Materials Regulations to specific functions and activities, including hazardous materials loading, unloading, and storage operations. On August 2, 2001, we announced two public meetings to facilitate public comment on the proposed rule. One public meeting was scheduled for September 14, 2001, in Washington, D.C.; on September 12, 2001, it was postponed. A second public meeting was scheduled for October 30, 2001, in Diamond Bar, California. The October 30 public meeting is cancelled; the September 14 public meeting will not be rescheduled.
