Transportation's Hazardous Material Regulations (49 CFR Part 107, 
Subpart B), notice is hereby given that the Office of Hazardous 
Materials Safety has received the application described herein. This

suffix ``M'' denote a modification request. These applications have 
been separated from the new applications for special permits to 
facilitate processing.

Materials Safety Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation,
