Agency Information Collection 

Activities: Requests for Comments; 

Clearance of a New Approval of 

Information Collection: Information 

Regarding Ferry Flights in On-Demand 

Operations 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA 

invites public comments about our 

intention to request the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) 

approval for a new information 

collection. The Federal Register Notice 

with a 60-day comment period soliciting 

comments on the following collection of 

information was published on August 

30, 2013, vol. 78, no. 169, pages 53817– 

53818. The collection involves an 

assessment of the number of ferry flights 

typically conducted by on-demand air 

carriers and the costs associated with 

those flights. The information to be 

collected will be used to conduct a 

benefit cost analysis in connection with 

rulemaking as required by Congress. 

DATES: Written comments should be 

submitted by January 13, 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control Number: 2120–XXXX. 

Title: Information Regarding Ferry 

Flights in On-Demand Operations. 

Form Numbers: There are no FAA 

forms associated with this specific 

collection of information. 

Type of Review: Clearance of a new 

information collection. 

Background: In response to the FAA 

Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 

(Public Law 112–95), the FAA will 

initiate a rulemaking to change part 91 

tail-end ferry flight limitations and rest 

requirements. The rule would apply 

part 135 flight limitations and rest 

requirements to today’s part 91 tail-end 

ferry flights (a part 91 flight following 

the last part 135 flight in a duty period). 

The FAA will use the results of this 

collection of information as the basis for 

the cost and benefit estimate of the 

proposed rule. The FAA requests 

comments on the proposed questions 

below in order to help assess costs. 

Survey Questions 

1. How many total part 135 operations 

do you have annually? 

2. For comparative purposes, how 

many aircraft are flown in your part 135 

services? 

3. How many tail-end ferry flights 

flown under part 91 would be curtailed 

if pilots need to fly under part 135 of 

rest and duty requirements? 

4. What percentage of these tail-end 

ferry flights would be accounted as 

single-pilot flights? 

5. Would another crewmember fly the 

aircraft to its destination? 

6. What would be the average cost of 

tail-end ferries flown under part 91 

rules? 

7. What would be the average cost of 

tail-end ferries flown under part 135 rest 

and duty rules? 

8. Please itemize key cost-drivers to 

comply with the proposed rule. 

Respondents: Part 135 operators 

conducting part 91 tail-end ferry flight. 

We estimate 2,155 of part 135 operators 

have such operations. 

Frequency: One time.

BILLING CODE 4910–13–P 

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Pipeline and Hazardous Materials 

Safety Administration 

[Docket No. PHMSA–2011–0294 (PD–35(R)] 

New Jersey Regulations on 

Transportation of Regulated Medical 

Waste 

AGENCY: Pipeline and Hazardous 

Materials Safety Administration 

(PHMSA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of administrative 

determination of preemption. 

Applicable Federal Requirements: 

Federal hazardous material 

transportation law, 49 U.S.C. 5101 et 

seq., and the Hazardous Materials 

Regulations (HMR), 49 CFR parts 171– 

180. 

Modes Affected: All transportation 

modes 

SUMMARY: Federal hazardous material 

transportation law preempts the 

following requirements in the New 

Jersey Administrative Code (N.J.A.C.) 

because the requirements are not 

substantively the same as the 

requirements in the HMR: 

1. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.10(a) that 

generators must separate into different 

containers before transport sharps, 

fluids (greater than 20 cc), and other 

regulated medical waste; 

2. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.11(d) which 

allows a generator to ship oversized 

medical waste without placing it in a 

packaging as required by the HMR; 

3. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.14 that the words 

‘‘Medical Waste’’ or ‘‘Infectious Waste’’ 

must be labeled on the outside of the 

package when there is untreated 

regulated medical waste; 

4. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A:15 that each 

‘‘generator shall mark each individual 

container of regulated medical waste in 

accordance with all applicable Federal 

regulations. . . . ,’’ and that the markings 

must include details of the transporter’s 

name, the date of shipment, the 

intermediate handler’s name, and other 

specific information; 

5. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.19 and those 

provisions in 7:26–3A.31 which require 

the use of a specific ‘‘tracking form’’ to 

accompany shipments of regulated 

medical waste that are prescribed for 

either the generator or the transporter; 

6. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.28 that, when 

transferring between transporters, each 

transporter must place a water resistant 

tag below the generator’s marking on the 

outer surface of the container with the 

transporter’s name, solid waste 

registration number, and date of receipt; 

and 

7. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.30 which requires 

that a vehicle used to transport 

regulated medical waste must have: 1) 

the name of the transporter; 2) the New 

Jersey Department of Environmental 

Protection (NJDEP) solid waste 

transporter registration number; and 3) 

either the words ‘‘Medical Waste’’ or 

‘‘Infectious Waste’’ on two sides and the 

back of the cargo-carrying body. 

8. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.45, to the extent 

that it requires rail transporters to 

comply with the transporter 

requirements of 7:26–3A.28 and 7:26– 

3A.30. 

9. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.46 which requires 

a specific tracking form to accompany 

shipments of regulated medical waste 

for rail transporters. 

Federal hazardous material 

transportation law does not preempt the 

following requirements because they do 

not create an obstacle in complying with 

the HMR. 

1. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.21(a)(1) to the 

extent that it requires the generator to 

retain a copy of the shipping paper for 

at least three years from the date the 

regulated medical waste was accepted 

by the transporter; 

2. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.21(a)(2) to the 

extent that it requires the generator to 

retain a copy of any exception report for 

at least three years after the day the 

exception report was submitted; 

3. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.22 to the extent 

that it requires the generator of 

regulated medical waste to file an 

exception report with the state when a 

transporter and/or destination facility 

notifies the generator of any discrepancy 

between the shipment as accepted by 

the initial transporter and delivered to 

the destination facility; 

4. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.32 to the extent 

that it requires the transporter to deliver 

the entire quantity of regulated medical 

waste to the proper party listed on the 

tracking form; 

5. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.33 to the extent 

that does not require a particular form 

to be used to consolidate the multiple 

shipments; 

6. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.34 to the extent 

that it requires that the transporter of 

regulated medical waste to retain a copy 

of the shipping paper for at least three 

years from the date the regulated 

medical waste was accepted by the next 

party; and 

7. N.J.A.C. 7:26–3A.41 to the extent 

that it requires intermediate handlers 

and destination facilities to certify that 

they had received the listed regulated 

medical waste.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Application 

The Healthcare Waste Institute 

(Institute) has applied to PHMSA for a 

determination whether Federal 

hazardous material transportation law, 

49 U.S.C. 5101 et seq., preempts 

requirements in the N.J.A.C. on the 

transportation of regulated medical 

waste in commerce regarding packaging, 

labeling and marking of containers, use 

of a specific ‘‘tracking form,’’ 

submission of ‘‘exception reports,’’ and 

marking of transport vehicles. 

In summary, the Institute contends 

that these requirements are preempted 

because they are (1) not ‘‘substantively 

the same as’’ requirements in the
