Confirmation of effective date and correction of direct final rule.
Summary
This document confirms the effective date of the direct final rule that changes the reporting cycle for facility response plan submissions to five years for operators who are required to submit facility response plans to RSPA. Pipeline operators were previously required to submit facility response plans every three years. This document also corrects a citation contained in the Background section of the direct final rule, and addresses the comments that were submitted to RSPA by clarifying certain language.
