threat of a release of oil and other 

hazardous materials. The applicants are 

requesting relief from this regulation 

with the following conditions: 

• On-duty period would not exceed 

4.5 additional hours for initial response; 

• Any driver who exceeds the 14- 

hour period would in no case exceed a 

total of 8 hours drive time; 

• Drivers would not exceed 70 hours 

on duty in 8 days; 

• Drivers would be required to take 

10 hours off duty, subsequent to the 

duty day; and 

• All activities would be subject to 

the electronic logging device (ELD) rule. 

According to the applicants, there 

would be a significant challenge in 

responding to environmental 

emergencies if the exemption was not 

granted. The initial response hours are 

the most critical in an environmental 

emergency and the ability to quickly 

respond is vital. They believe that a 

tightly managed exemption actually 

provides a risk averse situation by 

discouraging potentially unmanaged 

risk taking. If the exemption is not 

granted, there could be a disruption of 

nation/regional commerce activities, 

including power restoration activities 

and protection of interstate commerce 

and infrastructure. Granting the 

exemption would mitigate public 

transportation disruptions, much as tow 

trucks do when moving wrecked or 

disabled vehicles under 49 CFR 

390.23(a)(ii)(3). 

IV. Method To Ensure an Equivalent or 

Greater Level of Safety 

The applicants believe that the 

proposed relief, and the parameters in 

which their drivers operate, would 

continue to provide the highest level of 

safety and compliance, while prudently 

responding to incidents that threaten 

public safety and the environment. 

Safety is always the primary objective 

and guiding principle of all of the 

applicant’s business activities as 

demonstrated by the following: 

• All applicants have specific policies 

on ‘‘fatigue and journey management.’’ 

• Health and safety is paramount for 

all operations dealing with 

environmental emergencies and would 

remain the case when utilizing the 

exemption. 

• Drivers who utilize this exemption 

may come back into compliance and 

restart the computation of maximum 

driving time only after 10 hours off duty 

which starts at the end of their extended 

hours period. 

• The exemption would not exempt 

drivers/carriers from the requirements 

relating to the CDL, drug/alcohol 

testing, hazardous materials, size and 

weight, or State/Federal registration and 

tax requirements. 

• The applicants understand the 

concepts of risk management and 

mitigation. 

• The applicants maintain a 

multitude of safety, security, annual 

medical surveillance, and training 

plans, as well as comprehensive drug 

and alcohol programs compliant with 

multiple DOT departments. 

• Robust preventative maintenance 

programs specific to the equipment are 

in place with each of the requesting 

applicants. 

The applicants believe an equivalent 

level of safety will be achieved if their 

drivers/companies are exempt from the 

requirements as described in this notice. 

The requested exemption is for 5 years. 

A copy of the application for exemption 

is available for review in the docket for 

this notice.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Administration 

National Hazardous Materials Route 

Registry 

AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Administration (FMCSA), Department 

of Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Notice; revisions to the listing of 

designated and restricted routes for 

hazardous materials. 

SUMMARY: This notice provides revisions 

to the National Hazardous Materials 

Route Registry (NHMRR) reported to the 

FMCSA as of March 31, 2018. The 

NHMRR is a listing, as reported by 

States and Tribal governments, of all 

designated and restricted roads and 

preferred highway routes for 

transportation of highway route 

controlled quantities (HRCQ) of Class 7 

radioactive materials (RAM) (HRCQ/ 

RAM) and non-radioactive hazardous 

materials (NRHMs). 

DATES: Applicable date: August 9, 2018. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

Vincent Babich (202) 366–4871, or 

vincent.babich@dot.gov, Hazardous 

Materials Division, Office of 

Enforcement and Compliance, Federal 

Motor Carrier Safety Administration, 

1200 New Jersey Ave. SE, Washington, 

DC 20590. Office hours are from 9 a.m. 

to 5 p.m., ET., Monday through Friday, 

except for Federal holidays. 

Legal Basis and Background 

Under 49 United States Code (U.S.C.) 

5112, sections (a)(2) and (b), States and 

Tribal governments are permitted to 

designate and limit highway routes over 

which hazardous materials (HM) may be 

transported, provided the State or Tribal 

government complies with standards 

prescribed by the Secretary of 

Transportation (the Secretary) and 

meets publication requirements in 

section 5112(c). To establish standards 

under section (b), the Secretary must 

consult with the States, and, under 

section (c), coordinate with the States to 

‘‘update and publish periodically’’ a list 

of currently effective HM highway 

routing designations and restrictions. 

The requirements that States and Tribal 

governments must follow to establish, 

maintain, or enforce routing 

designations for the transport of 

placardable quantities of NRHMs are set 

forth in title 49 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (CFR) part 397, subpart C. 

Subpart D of part 397 sets forth the 

requirements for designating preferred 

routes for HRCQ/RAM shipments as an 

alternative, or in addition, to Interstate 

System highways. For HRCQ/RAM 

shipments, section 397.101(b)(1) defines 

a preferred route as an Interstate 

Highway for which no alternative route 

is designated by the State, a route 

specifically designated by the State, or 

both. (See section 397.65 for the 

definition of ‘‘NRHM’’ and ‘‘routing 

designations.’’) 

Under a delegation from the 

Secretary,1 FMCSA has authority to 

implement 49 U.S.C. 5112. 

Currently, 49 CFR 397.73 establishes 

public information and reporting 

requirements for NRHM. States or Tribal 

governments are required to furnish 

information regarding any new or 

changed routes to FMCSA within 60 

days after establishment. Under 49 CFR 

397.103, a State routing designation for 

HRCQ/RAM routes (preferred routes) as 

an alternative, or in addition, to an 

Interstate System highway, is effective 

when the authorized routing agency 

provides FMCSA with written 

notification, FMCSA acknowledges 

receipt in writing, and the route is 

published in FMCSA’s National 

Hazardous Material Route Registry. The 

Office of Management and Budget has 

approved these collections of 

information under control number 

2126–0014, Transportation of 

Hazardous Materials, Highway Routing. 

In this notice, FMCSA is merely 

performing the ministerial function of 

updating and publishing the NHMRR 


sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 154 / Thursday, August 9, 2018 / Notices 39501 

2 49 CFR 397.101(b)(1) defines ‘‘preferred route’’ 

as, ‘‘an Interstate System highway for which an 

alternative route is not designated by a State routing agency; a State-designated route selected by a State 

routing agency pursuant to § 397.103; or both.’’ 

based on input from its State and Tribal 

partners under 49 U.S.C. 5112(c)(1). 

Accordingly, this notice serves only to 

provide the most recent revisions to the 

NHMRR; it does not establish any new 

public information and reporting 

requirements. 

Updates to the NHMRR 

FMCSA published the full NHMRR in 

a Federal Register Notice on April 29, 

2015 (80 FR 23859). Since publication 

of the 2015 notice, FMCSA published 

one update to the NHMRR in a Federal 

Register Notice on August 8, 2016 (81 

FR 52518). 

This notice provides revisions to the 

NHMRR, reported to the FMCSA from 

August 8, 2016 through March 31, 2018. 

The revisions to the NHMRR listings in 

this notice supersede and replace 

corresponding NHMRR listings 

published in the April 29, 2015 notice 

and corresponding revisions to the 

NHMRR listings published in the 

August 8, 2016 notice. Continue to refer 

to the April 29, 2015 notice for 

additional background on the NHMRR 

and the August 8, 2016 notice for the 

procedures for State and Tribal 

government routing agencies to update 

their Route Registry listings and contact 

information. 

The full current NHMRR for each 

state is posted on the FMCSA’s internet 

website at: https://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/ 

regulations/hazardous-materials/ 

national-hazardous-materials-routeregistry. 

Revisions to the NHMRR in This Notice 

In accordance with the requirements 

of 49 CFR 397.73 and 397.103, the 

NHMRR is being revised as follows: 

The FMCSA Division field office 

contact information for each state is no 

longer listed in the NHMRR. This 

information is available on the internet 

at the FMCSA’s website at: https://

www.fmcsa.dot.gov/mission/fieldoffices. In addition, the contact 

information for each State and Tribal 

Government routing agency is no longer 

listed in the NHMRR. This information 

is also available on the internet at the 

FMCSA’s website at: https://

www.fmcsa.dot.gov/regulations/ 

hazardous-materials/nationalhazardous-materials-route-registrystate. The removal of this information 

from the NHMRR eliminates the 

presentation of redundant information 

and will streamline the future 

maintenance and update of the NHMRR.

Route Order Key 

Each listing in the NHMRR includes 

codes to identify each route designation 

and each route restriction reported by 

the State Designation codes identify the 

routes along which a driver may or must 

transport specified HM. Among the 

designation codes is one for ‘‘preferred 

routes,’’ which is defined in 

§ 397.101(b)(1) 2 and applies to 

transporting ‘‘a highway route 

controlled quantity of Class 7 

(radioactive) materials.’’ Restriction 

codes identify the routes along which a 

driver may not transport specified HM 

shipments. Table 1 presents information 

on each restriction and designation 

code.
