Hazardous Materials Transportation; Registration and Fee Assessment Program

Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM).

RSPA is proposing changes to the current registration and fee assessment program for persons who transport or offer for transportation certain categories and quantities of hazardous materials. The proposed changes would increase the number of persons required to register and increase the annual registration fee for shippers and carriers who are not a small business under Small Business Administration criteria. The proposed changes are intended to raise additional funds to enhance support for the national Hazardous Materials Emergency Preparedness Grants Program.
