Action
Final rule.
Summary
RSPA is removing unnecessary, obsolete, and duplicative regulations contained in the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR). In addition, RSPA is eliminating approximately 100 pages of the CFR by reformatting the Hazardous Materials Table and List of Hazardous Substances and Reportable Quantities. The intended effect of this action is to enhance compliance with the HMR by making them shorter and easier to use. This action responds to President Clinton's March 4, 1995 memorandum to heads of departments and agencies calling for a review of all agency regulations.
