DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration

Notice of Applications for Modification of Special Permit

AGENCY: Office of Hazardous Materials Safety, Pipeline and Hazardous 
Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), DOT.

ACTION: List of applications for modification of special permits.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the procedures governing the application 
for, and the processing of, special permits from the Department of 
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 applications described herein. This 
notice is abbreviated to expedite docketing and public notice. Because 
the sections affected, modes of transportation, and the nature of 
application have been shown in earlier Federal Register publications, 
they are not repeated here. Requests for modification of special 
permits (e.g. to provide for additional hazardous materials, packaging 
design changes, additional mode of transportation, etc.) are described 
in footnotes to the application number. Application numbers with the 
suffix ``M'' denote a modification request. These applications have 
been separated from the new application for special permits to 
facilitate processing.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before December 13, 2012.
    Address Comments To: Record Center, Pipeline and Hazardous 
Materials Safety Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation, 
Washington, DC 20590.
    Comments should refer to the application number and be submitted in 
triplicate. If confirmation of receipt of comments is desired, include 
a self-addressed stamped postcard showing the special permit number.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Copies of the applications are 
available for inspection in the Records Center, East Building, PHH-30, 
1200 New Jersey Avenue Southeast, Washington, DC or at http://regulations.gov.
    This notice of receipt of applications for modification of special 
permit is published in accordance with Part 107 of the Federal 
hazardous materials transportation law (49 U.S.C. 5117(b); 49 CFR 
1.53(b)).
