# SUMMARY:

                        PHMSA is correcting a Final Rule that appeared in the                         **Federal Register**                         on December 3, 2009. That final rule amended the Federal Pipeline Safety Regulations to address human factors and other aspects of control room management for pipelines where controllers use supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems, but contained errors regarding certain dates, both in the preamble and the amendments. This document corrects those errors.

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

                    On December 3, 2009, PHMSA published a final rule in the                     **Federal Register**                     (74 FR 63310) entitled “Pipeline Safety: Control Room Management/Human Factors.” This final rule contained several errors regarding certain compliance dates. The final rule became effective on February 1, 2010, and the corrected dates detailed in this final rule correction are applicable as of February 1, 2010.                

                    On page 63311 of the preamble to the December 3 rule, in the first column in the                     **DATES**                     section, the compliance date is corrected to read “Compliance Date: An operator must develop control room management procedures by August 1, 2011, and implement the procedures by February 1, 2013.”                

                        Therefore, in accordance with the reasons stated in the preamble, PHMSA                               ( print page 5537)                            amends 49 CFR part 192 by making the following correcting amendments:
