Mr. Steve Wood                     Ref. No. 98-0259

Supervisor, Plant Protection

John Deere Parts Distribution Center

1600 First Avenue East

Milan,Illinois 61264-2697

Dear Mr. Wood:

This is in response to your letter of August 25, 1998, concerning the combustible liquid exception in § 173.150(f) (2) of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180).

A combustible liquid in a non-bulk container that is not a hazardous substance, hazardous waste, or marine pollutant is not regulated by the HMR. Therefore, a combustible liquid meeting these criteria may be shipped by air without compliance with the HMR.

I hope this satisfies your request.

Sincerely,

 

John A.Gale

Transportation Regulations Specialist
