unloading operations involving bulk 

packagings used to transport hazardous 

materials. 

In the January 4, 2008 notice, we 

summarized incident data related to 

bulk loading and unloading operations; 

discussed recommendations issued by 

the National Transportation Safety 

Board and the Chemical Safety and 

Hazard Investigation Board; provided an 

overview of current Federal regulations 

applicable to bulk loading and 

unloading operations; summarized the 

results of a public workshop we hosted 

last year; and set forth proposed 

recommended practices for bulk loading 

and unloading operations. The comment 

period for the notice was to end on 

February 8, 2008. 

The American Trucking Association

allow its members to more fully

potential impact of the proposed 

recommended practices to the trucking 

industry. We agree that an extension of 

30 days is in the public interest and, 

accordingly, we are extending the 

closing date of the comment period 

until March 14, 2008.
