SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Background 

This case was initiated due to a 

response by the Director, Defense 

Procurement and Acquisition Policy 

(DPAP), to a DoD Inspector General 

Report entitled ‘‘Accuracy of 

Mechanization of Administration 

Services Accounts Payable Information,’’ 

dated August 14, 2008. In particular, 

DPAP concurred with a 

recommendation in the report which 

stated that DFARS Appendix F should 

be updated to address changes brought 

on by deployment of Wide Area 

Workflow (WAWF), Item Unique 

Identification, and Radio Frequency 

Identification. 

The proposed rule provides new 

coverage on the use, preparation, and 

distribution of the electronic WAWF 

receiving report which is the primary 

method for documenting acceptance 

and distribution of shipments. The rule 

also addresses WAWF capability to 

provide the following: 

—Item Unique Identification (IUID). 

When the clause at DFARS 252.211– 

7003, Item Identification and 

Valuation, is used in the contract and 

requires reporting of IUID data, 

WAWF captures the IUID data and 

forwards the data to the IUID registry 

after acceptance. WAWF may be used 

to report Unique Item Identifiers 

(UIIs) at the line item level and also 

UIIs embedded at the line item level. 

—Radio Frequency Identification 

(RFID). When the clause at DFARS 

252.211–7006, Radio Frequency 

Identification, is used in the contract, 

WAWF will capture the RFID 

information and forward the data to 

the receiving location. Using WAWF 

is the only way a contractor can 

comply with the clause to furnish 

RFID data via an Advance Shipping 

Notice. 

Insertion of the new WAWF coverage 

necessitates relocating and renumbering 

existing coverage for use, preparation, 

and distribution of the DD Form 250 

Material Inspection and Receiving 

Report, and the DD Form 250–1 Tanker/ 

Barge Material Inspection and Receiving 

Report. 

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act 

DoD does not expect this proposed 

rule to have a significant economic 

impact on a substantial number of small 

entities within the meaning of the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, 

et seq. The proposed rule provides 

guidance on the preparation and use of 

the electronic WAWF Receiving Report 

which is now required for use in most 

contracts. Additionally, the rule 

addresses WAWF capability and 

instructions to comply with reporting 

requirements for IUID and RFID data 

submissions. 

DoD has prepared an Initial 

Regulatory Flexibility Analysis which is 

summarized as follows. The objective of 

the rule is to facilitate maximum use of 

WAWF by providing detailed guidance. 

DFARS Subpart 232.70, Electronic 

Submission and Processing of Payment 

Requests and Receiving Reports, 

prescribes policies for submitting and 

processing payment requests in 

electronic form to comply with 10 

U.S.C. 2227, Electronic Submission and 

Processing of Claims for Contract 

Payments. WAWF is the DoD system for 

contractors to submit payment and 

receiving reports in electronic format. 

The proposed rule affects all DoD 

contractors who are not exempt from 

using WAWF, however, the exact 

number of small entities is unknown. 

Exempt classes of contracts are those 

that are listed under the seven 

categories of contracts at DFARS 

232.7002, Policy. 

Recordkeeping required is limited to 

that required to properly invoice and 

record shipping and receiving 

information under Government 

contracts. Preparation of these records 

requires clerical and analytic skills to 

create the documents and input them 

into the electronic WAWF system. 

The rule does not duplicate, overlap, 

or conflict with any other Federal rules. 

There are no known significant 

alternatives to the rule that would meet 

the requirements of 10 U.S.C. 2227, 

Electronic Submission and Processing of 

Claims for Contract Payments, and 

minimize any significant economic 

impact of the rule on small entities. Any 

impact on small business is expected to 

be beneficial from providing detailed 

preparation and distribution guidance 

for use of WAWF. 

DoD invites comments from small 

businesses and other interested parties 

on the expected impact of this rule on 

small entities. DoD will also consider 

comments from small entities 

concerning existing regulations in 

subparts affected by this rule in 

accordance with 5 U.S.C. 610. Interested 

parties must submit such comments 

separately and should cite 5 U.S.C. 610 

(DFARS Case 2009–D023) in 

correspondence. 

C. Paperwork Reduction Act 

The Paperwork Reduction Act (Pub. 

L. 96–511) applies because information 

collection requirements in the proposed 

rule at DFARS Appendix F are currently 

approved under Office of Management 

and Budget Control Number 0704–0248. 

The current approval took into 

consideration use of the automated 

WAWF system so inclusion of the 

WAWF guidance into Appendix F adds 

no new information collection 

requirements. 

List of Subjects in 48 CFR Appendix F 

to Chapter 2 

Government procurement. 

Ynette R. Shelkin, 

Editor, Defense Acquisition Regulations 

System. 

Therefore, DoD proposes to amend 48 

CFR appendix F to chapter 2 as follows: 

Appendix F to Chapter 2—Material 

Inspection and Receiving Report 

1. The authority citation for 48 CFR 

appendix F to chapter 2 continues to 

read as follows: 

Authority: 41 U.S.C. 421 and 48 CFR 

chapter 1. 

PART 1—INTRODUCTION 

2. Revise section F–101 to read as 

follows: 

F–101 General 

(a) This appendix contains procedures 

and instructions for the use, 

preparation, and distribution of the 

Wide Area WorkFlow Receiving Report 

(WAWF RR) in Wide Area Workflow 

(WAWF), the DD Form 250, Material 

Inspection and Receiving Report (MIRR) 

and (DD Form 250 series equivalents) 

and commercial shipping/packing lists 

used to document Government contract 

quality assurance. 

(b) The electronic WAWF RR is the 

primary method for documenting 

acceptance and distribution of 

shipments. The paper DD Form 250 

MIRR is mostly used on an exception 

basis. 

3. Revise section F–102 to read as 

follows: 


wwoods2 on DSKDVH8Z91PROD with PROPOSALS-1
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 180 / Friday, September 17, 2010 / Proposed Rules 56963 

F–102 Applicability 

(a) DFARS 252.232–7003, Electronic 

Submission of Payment Requests and 

Receiving Reports, requires payment 

requests and receiving reports using 

WAWF in most cases. 

(b) The provisions of this appendix 

also apply to supplies or services 

acquired by DoD when the clause at 

252.246–7000, Material Inspection and 

Receiving Report, is included in the 

contract. 

(c) When DoD provides quality 

assurance or acceptance services for 

non-DoD activities, use the instructions 

in this appendix, unless otherwise 

specified in the contract. 

4. Amend section F–103 by revising 

paragraphs (a) introductory text, (a)(6), 

(b), and (c), and adding new paragraph 

(e) to read as follows: 

F–103 Use 

(a) The WAWF RR and the DD Form 

250 MIRR are multipurpose reports 

used— 

* * * * * 

(6) As a contractor invoice. 

(i) WAWF provides an option for 

creating a combined invoice and WAWF 

RR through use of the invoice and 

receiving report combo option; and 

(ii) The DD Form 250 MIRR may also 

be used as an invoice (see F–406(b)); 

and 

* * * * * 

(b) Do not use the WAWF RR or the 

DD Form 250 MIRR for shipments— 

(1) By subcontractors—Unless the 

subcontractor is shipping directly to the 

Government; or 

(2) Of contract inventory.—However, 

WAWF may be used for transfer of 

Government property using the property 

transfer function. 

(c) The contractor prepares the 

WAWF RR or the DD Form 250 MIRR, 

except for entries that an authorized 

Government representative is required 

to complete. When using a paper DD 

Form 250 MIRR, the contractor shall 

furnish sufficient copies of the 

completed form, as directed by the 

Government representative. 

* * * * * 

(e) In addition to the above uses, the 

WAWF RR provides additional 

functionality, not provided by the paper 

DD Form 250 MIRR, that complies with 

the following requirements: 

(1) Item Unique Identification (IUID), 

when the clause at 252.211–7003, Item 

Identification and Valuation is used in 

the contract, reporting of IUID data is 

required. WAWF captures the IUID data 

and forwards the data to the IUID 

registry after acceptance. WAWF may be 

used to report Unique Item Identifiers 

(UIIs) at the line item level and also UIIs 

embedded at the line item level. 

(2) Radio Frequency Identification 

(RFID), when the clause at 252.211– 

7006, Radio Frequency Identification, is 

used in the contract, WAWF will 

capture the RFID information and 

forward the data to the receiving 

location. Using WAWF is the only way 

a contractor can comply with the clause 

to furnish RFID data via an Advance 

Shipping Notice (ASN). 

5. Amend section F–104 by revising 

paragraph (a) and the heading of 

paragraph (b) to read as follows: 

F–104 Application 

(a) WAWF RR and DD Form 250 MIRR 

(1) Use the WAWF RR or DD Form 

250 MIRR for delivery of contract line, 

subline, exhibit line, or exhibit subline 

items. Do not use the WAWF RR or DD 

Form 250 MIRR for those exhibit line or 

exhibit subline items on a DD Form 

1423, Contract Data Requirements List, 

that indicate no DD Form 250 MIRR is 

required. 

(2) If the shipped to, marked for, 

shipped from, mode of shipment, 

contract quality assurance and 

acceptance data are the same for more 

than one shipment made on the same 

day under the same contract, contractors 

may prepare one WAWF RR or DD Form 

250 MIRR to cover all such shipments. 

(3) If the volume of the shipment 

precludes the use of a single car, truck, 

or other vehicle, prepare a separate 

WAWF RR or DD Form 250 MIRR for 

the contents of each vehicle. 

(4) When a shipment is consigned to 

an Air Force activity and the shipment 

includes items of more than one federal 

supply class (FSC) or material 

management code (MMC), prepare a 

separate WAWF RR or DD Form 250 

MIRR for items of each of the FSCs or 

MMCs in the shipment. However, the 

cognizant Government representative 

may authorize a single WAWF RR or DD 

Form 250 MIRR, listing each of the FSCs 

or MMCs included in the shipment on 

a separate continuation sheet. The MMC 

appears as a suffix to the national stock 

number applicable to the item. 

(5) Consolidation of Petroleum 

Shipments on a Single WAWF RR or DD 

Form 250 MIRR. 

(i) Contiguous United States. (A) 

Contractors may consolidate multiple 

car or truck load shipments of 

petroleum made on the same day, to the 

same destination, against the same 

contract line item, on one WAWF RR or 

DD Form 250 MIRR. To permit 

verification of motor deliveries, assign 

each load a load number which can be 

identified to the shipment number in 

Block 2 of the DD Form 250 MIRR. 

Include a shipping document 

(commercial or Government) with each 

individual load showing as a 

minimum— 

(1) The shipper; 

(2) Shipping point; 

(3) Consignee; 

(4) Contract and line item number; 

(5) Product identification; 

(6) Gross gallons (bulk only); 

(7) Loading temperature (bulk only); 

(8) American Petroleum Institute 

gravity (bulk only); 

(9) Identification of carrier’s 

equipment; 

(10) Serial number of all seals 

applied; and 

(11) Signature of supplier’s 

representative. 

(B) When acceptance is at destination, 

the receiving activity retains the 

shipping document(s) to verify the 

entries on the consignee copy of the DD 

Form 250 MIRR forwarded by the 

contractor (reference F–401, Table 1) 

before signing Block 21b. 

(ii) Overseas. The same criteria as for 

contiguous United States applies, except 

the consolidation period may be 

extended, if acceptable to the receiving 

activity, shipping activity, Government 

finance office, and the authorized 

Government representative having 

cognizance at the contractor’s facility. In 

addition, the contractor may include 

more than one contract line item in each 

WAWF RR or DD Form 250 MIRR if the 

shipped to, marked for, shipped from, 

mode of shipment, contract quality 

assurance, and acceptance data are the 

same for all line items. 

(6) Consolidation of Coal Shipments 

on a Single WAWF RR or DD 250 MIRR. 

(i) Contractors may consolidate multiple 

railcar or truck shipments of coal made 

on the same day, to the same 

destination, against the same contract 

line items, on one WAWF RR or DD 250 

MIRR. To permit verification of truck 

deliveries, assign each load a load 

number which can be identified to the 

shipment number in Block 2 of the DD 

Form 250 MIRR and the analytical test 

report. Include a commercial shipping 

document with each individual truck 

load showing as a minimum— 

(A) The shipper; 

(B) The name or names; 

(C) Location and shipping point of the 

mine or mines from which the coal 

originates; 

(D) The contract number; 

(E) The exact size of the coal shipped; 

and 

(F) A certified weighmaster’s 

certification of weight for the truckload. 

(ii) Include a waybill with each rail 

shipment showing the identical 


wwoods2 on DSKDVH8Z91PROD with PROPOSALS-1
56964 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 180 / Friday, September 17, 2010 / Proposed Rules 

information. To permit verification of 

rail deliveries, identify each railcar 

number comprising the shipment to the 

shipment number in Block 2 of the DD 

Form 250 MIRR and the analytical test 

report. When acceptance is at 

destination, the receiving activity must 

retain the shipping document(s) to 

verify the entries on the consignee copy 

of the DD Form 250 MIRR. 

(b) DD Form 250–1 Tanker/Barge MIRR 

* * * * * 

PART 3—PREPARATION OF THE WIDE 

AREA WORKFLOW RECEIVING 

REPORT (WAWF RR) 

6. Revise section F–301 to read as 

follows: 

F–301 Preparation Instructions 

(a) General 

(1) Preparation instructions and 

training for the WAWF RR are available 

at http://wawftraining.com. The 

instructions on preparing a WAWF RR 

are part of the contractor training 

section. 

(2) Prime contractors may direct 

subcontractors to prepare and submit 

documents in WAWF by giving their 

subcontractors access to WAWF via 

Commercial and Government Entity 

(CAGE) code extension. 

(3) If the contract is in Electronic 

Document Access, DoD’s contract 

repository, then the WAWF system will 

automatically populate the Issued By, 

Admin By, and Pay Office Department 

of Defense Activity Address (DoDAAC) 

codes. 

(i) When source acceptance is 

required, WAWF will populate the 

Inspect By with the Admin By DoDAAC 

code. The contractor will need to 

change this DoDAAC if Government 

Source Inspection is performed at other 

than the Admin By. 

(ii) Any fields that have been prefilled may be changed. 

(iii) WAWF will also verify that CAGE 

codes are valid and active in the CCR 

(Central Contractor Registration) and 

that DoDAACs, and Military Assistance 

Program Address Codes (MAPACs) are 

valid in the DAAS (Defense Automatic 

Addressing System). 

(4) WAWF will populate the address 

information for CAGE codes, DODAACs 

and MAPACs from CCR and DAAS. 

These are the official DoD sites for 

address information. Any fields that 

have been pre-filled may be changed or 

additional information added. 

(5) Do not include classified 

information in WAWF. 

(b) Completion Instructions 

(1) CONTRACT NO./DELIVERY 

ORDER NO. 

(i) Enter the 13-position alphanumeric basic Procurement Instrument 

Identification Number (PIIN) of the 

contract. When applicable, enter the 

four-position alpha-numeric call/order 

serial number that is supplementary to 

the 13-position basic PIIN. This number 

is also referred to as the Supplementary 

Procurement Instrument Identification 

Number (SPIIN). Use SPIINs for (also 

see Subpart 204.70)— 

(A) Delivery orders under indefinitedelivery type contracts; 

(B) Orders under basic ordering 

agreements; and 

(C) Calls under blanket purchase 

agreements. 

(ii) Except as indicated in paragraph 

(b)(1)(iii) of this section, do not enter 

supplementary numbers used in 

conjunction with basic PIINs to 

identify— 

(A) Modifications of contracts and 

agreements; 

(B) Modifications to calls or orders; or 

(C) Document numbers representing 

contracts written between contractors. 

(iii) When shipping instructions are 

furnished and shipment is made before 

receipt of the confirming contract 

modification (SF 30, Amendment of 

Solicitation/Modification of Contract), 

enter a comment in the Misc. Info Tab 

to this effect. 

(iv) For DoD delivery orders on nonDoD contracts, enter the non-DoD 

contract number in the contract number 

field and enter the DoD contract number 

in the delivery order field. 

(2) SHIPMENT NO. 

(i) The shipment number has a threeposition alpha character prefix and a 

four-position numeric or alpha-numeric 

serial number. 

(A) The prime contractor shall control 

and assign the shipment number prefix. 

The shipment number shall consist of 

three alphabetic characters for each 

‘‘Shipped From’’ address. The shipment 

number prefix shall be different for each 

‘‘Shipped From’’ address and shall 

remain constant throughout the life of 

the contract. The prime contractor may 

assign separate prefixes when 

shipments are made from different 

locations within a facility identified by 

one ‘‘Shipped From’’ address. 

(B) Number the first shipment 0001 

for shipments made under the contract 

or contract and order number from each 

‘‘Shipped From’’ address, or shipping 

location within the ‘‘Shipped From’’ 

address. Consecutively number all 

subsequent shipments with the identical 

shipment number prefix. While 

shipments should be created 

sequentially, they may be released and 

accepted out of sequence. 

(1) Use alpha-numeric serial numbers 

when more than 9,999 numbers are 

required. Serially assign alpha-numeric 

numbers with the alpha in the first 

position (the letters I and O shall not be 

used) followed by the three-position 

numeric serial number. Use the 

following alpha-numeric sequence: 

A000 through A999 (10,000 through 

10,999) 

B000 through B999 (11,000 through 

11,999) 

Z000 through Z999 (34,000 through 

34,999) 

(2) When this series is completely 

used, the shipment number prefix will 

have to be changed. WAWF will not 

allow duplicate shipment numbers to be 

created against a contract or delivery 

order. 

(ii) The prime contractor shall control 

deliveries and on the final shipment of 

the contract shall end the shipment 

number with a ‘‘Z.’’ Where the final 

shipment is from other than the prime 

contractor’s plant, the prime contractor 

may elect either to– 

(A) Direct the subcontractor making 

the final shipment to end that shipment 

number with a ‘‘Z’’; or 

(B) Upon determination that all 

subcontractors have completed their 

shipments, to correct the WAWF RR 

(see F–304) covering the final shipment 

made from the prime contractor’s plant 

by addition of a ‘‘Z’’ to that shipment 

number. 

(iii) Contractors follow the procedures 

in F–305 to use commercial invoices. 

(3) DATE SHIPPED. Enter the date the 

shipment is released to the carrier or the 

date the services are completed. If the 

shipment will be released after the date 

of Contract Quality Assurance (CQA) 

and/or acceptance, enter the estimated 

date of release. When the date is

RECEIVED. 


wwoods2 on DSKDVH8Z91PROD with PROPOSALS-1
56966 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 180 / Friday, September 17, 2010 / Proposed Rules 

(i) Enter the quantity shipped, using 

the unit of measure in the contract for 

payment. When a second unit of 

measure is used for purposes other than 

payment, enter the appropriate quantity 

in the description field. 

(ii) On the final shipment of a line 

item of a contract containing a clause 

permitting a variation of quantity and an 

underrun condition exists, the prime 

contractor shall choose the Ship Advice 

Code ‘‘Z’’. Where the final shipment is 

from other than the prime contractor’s 

plant and an underrun condition exists, 

the prime contractor may elect to direct 

the subcontractor making the final 

shipment to choose the Ship Advice 

Code ‘‘Z’’; 

(iii) When the Government is 

performing destination acceptance, the 

acceptor should enter actual quantity 

received in apparent good condition in 

the ‘‘Qty. Accepted’’ field of the 

Acceptor Line Item Tab. 

(17) UNIT OF MEASURE. Enter the 

abbreviation of the unit measure as 

indicated in the contract for payment. 

Where a second unit of measure is 

indicated in the contract for purposes 

other than payment or used for shipping 

purposes, enter the second unit of 

measure in the description field. 

Authorized abbreviations are in the 

WAWF Unit of Measure Table Link. For 

example, LB for pound, SH for sheet. 

(18) UNIT PRICE. The contractor may, 

at its option, enter unit prices on all 

WAWF RR copies, except as a 

minimum: 

(i) The contractor shall enter unit 

prices for each item of property 

fabricated or acquired for the 

Government and delivered to a 

contractor as Government furnished 

property (GFP). Get the unit price from 

Section B of the contract. If the unit 

price is not available, use an estimate. 

The estimated price should be the 

contractor’s estimate of what the items 

will cost the Government. When the 

price is estimated, enter ‘‘Estimated Unit 

Price’’ in the description field. However, 

if the contract has Item Unique 

Identification (IUID) requirements and 

the receiving report is being processed 

in WAWF, the unit price represents the 

acquisition cost that will be passed to 

the IUID registry. Therefore, the Unit 

Price is required (see the clause at 

252.211–7003, Item Identification and 

Valuation). When delivering GFP via 

WAWF to another contractor, WAWF 

will initiate a property transfer if the 

contractor who is initiating the WAWF 

RR is also registered as a contractor 

property shipper in WAWF and the 

contractor receiving the property is also 

a contractor property receiver in 

WAWF. 

(ii) For clothing and textile contracts 

containing a bailment clause, enter the 

cited Government furnished property 

unit value as ‘‘GFP UNIT VALUE’’ in the 

description field. 

(19) AMOUNT. WAWF will calculate 

and populate the amount by multiplying 

the unit price times the quantity. 

(20) CONTRACT QUALITY 

ASSURANCE (CQA). 

(i) The words ‘‘conform to contract’’ 

contained in the text above the signature 

block in the WAWF RR Header Tab 

relate to quality and to the quantity of 

the items on the report. Enter notes 

taking exception in the Misc. Info Tab 

comment field or on attached 

supporting documents with an 

appropriate block cross-reference. 

(ii) When a shipment is authorized 

under an alternative release procedure, 

the contractor will ‘‘execute’’ the 

alternative release procedure in WAWF 

by including the appropriate indicator 

in the electronic transaction rather than 

through inclusion or attachment of the 

text of the certificate. The alternative 

release procedure only substitutes for 

source inspection; Government 

acceptance must still be indicated by a 

Government official’s signature on the 

WAWF RR. 

(iii) When contract terms provide for 

use of Certificate of Conformance and 

shipment is made under these terms, the 

contractors will ‘‘execute’’ a Certificate 

in WAWF by including the appropriate 

indicator in the electronic transaction 

rather than through inclusion or 

attachment of the text of the certificate. 

Government acceptance must still be 

indicated by a Government official’s 

signature on the WAWF RR. 

(iv) ORIGIN. 

(A) The authorized Government 

representative must— 

(1) Place an ‘‘X’’ in the appropriate 

CQA and/or acceptance box(es) to show 

origin CQA and/or acceptance. 

(2) Sign and date; 

(3) Enter printed name, title, e-mail 

address, and commercial telephone 

number. 

(B) When fast pay procedures apply,

authorized Government representative 

shall execute the block as required by 

paragraph (b)(20)(iv)(A) of this section. 

(v) DESTINATION. 

When CQA and acceptance or 

acceptance is at destination, the 

authorized Government representative 

must— 

(A) Place an ‘‘X’’ in the appropriate 

box(es); 

(B) Sign and date; and 

(C) Enter printed name, title, e-mail 

address, and commercial telephone 

number. 

(21) CONTRACTOR USE ONLY. Self 

explanatory. 

7. Revise section F–303 to read as 

follows: 

F–303 Consolidated Shipments 

When individual shipments are held 

at the contractor’s plant for authorized 

transportation consolidation to a single 

bill of lading, the contractor may 

prepare the WAWF RR at the time of 

CQA or acceptance prior to the time of 

actual shipment. 

8. Remove section F–304. 

9. Redesignate section F–305 as

232.7002 applies. Contractor submission 

of the material inspection and receiving 

information required by this appendix 

by using the WAWF electronic form (see 

paragraph (b) of the clause at 252.232– 

7003) fulfills the requirement for a DD 

Form 250 MIRR. 

11. Redesignate section F–307 as 

section F–306 and revise it to read as 

follows: 

F–306 Packing List Instructions 

Contractors may also use a WAWF RR 

as a packing list. WAWF provides 

options to print the WAWF RR. These 

printed WAWF RRs may also be used if 

a signed copy is required. 

(a) WAWF provides a print capability 

for its WAWF RR. The printed WAWF 

RR can be identified by its distinctive 

format and by the text ‘‘Please look in 

WAWF for signed copy’’ underneath the 

‘‘RECEIVING REPORT’’ title at the top of 

each printed page. This printed copy 

may be used as a packing list. If needed, 

the signature can be verified by 

reviewing the signed WAWF RR in 

WAWF. 

(b) Also, the contractor can print a 

WAWF RR only after a signature is 

applied by the Government Inspector or 

Acceptor in WAWF. Copies printed will 


wwoods2 on DSKDVH8Z91PROD with PROPOSALS-1
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 180 / Friday, September 17, 2010 / Proposed Rules 56967 

be annotated with ‘‘\\ original signed in 

WAWF\\’’ in lieu of the inspector/ 

acceptor’s signature. 

12. Redesignate section F–308 as 

section F–307 and revise it to read as 

follows: 

F–307 Receiving Instructions 

If CQA and acceptance or acceptance 

of supplies is required upon arrival at 

destination, see F–301(b)(20)(v) for 

instructions.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking. 

SUMMARY: PHMSA published the 

Control Room Management/Human 

Factors final rule in the Federal Register 

on December 3, 2009, which became 

effective on February 1, 2010. The final 

rule established an 18-month program 

development deadline of August 1, 

2011, and a subsequent 18-month 

program implementation deadline of 

February 1, 2013. This proposed rule 

proposes to expedite the program 

implementation deadline to August 1, 

2011, for most of the requirements, 

except for certain provisions regarding 

adequate information and alarm 

management, which would have a 

program implementation deadline of 

August 1, 2012. 

DATES: Anyone interested in filing 

written comments on this proposed rule 

must do so by November 16, 2010. 

PHMSA will consider late comments 

filed so far as practical. 

ADDRESSES: Comments should reference 

Docket No. PHMSA–2007–27954 and

Background 

There are roughly 170,000 miles of 

hazardous liquid pipelines, 295,000 

miles of gas transmission pipelines, and 

1.9 million miles of gas distribution 

pipelines in the United States. These 

pipelines transport about 66 percent of 

the United States domestic energy 

supply. Hazardous liquid pipelines 

carry crude oil to refineries and refined 

products to locations where these 

products are consumed. Hazardous 

liquid pipelines also transport highly 

volatile liquids, other hazardous liquids 

such as anhydrous ammonia, and 

carbon dioxide. Gas transmission 

pipelines typically carry natural gas 

over long distances from gas gathering, 

supply, or import facilities to localities 

where it is used to heat homes, generate
