**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  In the final rules section of the Federal Register , EPA is approving the state’s SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision amendment and anticipates no relevant adverse comments to this action. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no relevant adverse comments are received in response to this action, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this action. If EPA receives relevant adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed action. EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time. Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on part of this rule and if that part can be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those parts of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment. For additional information, see the direct final rule which is located in the rules section of this Federal Register

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  I. Background

On December 23, 2010, PHMSA published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM; 75 FR 80765) seeking public comment on the possible incorporation of the most recent edition of the ASME’s Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section XII for the design, construction, and certification of cargo tank motor vehicles, cryogenic portable tanks and multi-unit-tank car tanks (ton tanks) and the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors’ (National Board) National Board Inspection Code as it applies to the continuing qualification and maintenance of ASME stamped cargo tank motor vehicles, portable tanks, and multi-unit-tank car tanks (ton tanks) constructed to standards in ASME Section VIII or ASME Section XII. PHMSA received comments regarding the availability of the consensus standards referenced in the ANPRM and requesting a comment period extension. II. Availability of Consensus Standards

Several commenters (National Tank Truck Carriers (NTTC), C & R Fleet Services, and WRD, Inc.) requested that PHMSA make the consensus standards referenced in the ANPRM available to the public electronically. The commenters cited costs to purchase and review the copyrighted documents as barriers to informed public comment on issues presented in the ANPRM. PHMSA agrees. PHMSA understands the costs of purchasing copyrighted consensus standards can create an unnecessary burden on interested parties and potentially limit public participation in the rulemaking process. This was not PHMSA’s intent.

In response to commenter requests, PHMSA has obtained permission from ASME to post an electronic version of the 2010 edition of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section XII (ASME Section XII) on PHMSA’s website. The electronic version of ASME Section XII will be available for the duration of the comment period (through May 23, 2011) at the following URL: http://phmsa.dot.gov/hazmat. Further, in response to commenter requests, the National Board has voluntarily posted copies of the relevant
