Dear Mr. Romach:
This is in response to your letter dated June 29, 1999, requesting clarification of the applicability of § 173.220 of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180). Specifically, you ask if mechanical equipment containing an internal combustion engine and equipped with a fuel tank having a capacity greater than 119 gallons may take advantage of the exceptions provided in § 173.220.
The answer is yes. Mechanical equipment containing an internal combustion engine equipped with a fuel tank meeting the definition of a bulk packaging may be transported under the provisions of § 173.220.
I hope this satisfies your request.
Sincerely,
John A. Gale
