Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 84 / Tuesday, May 4, 2021 / Notices

The 20th Revised Edition (2017) 1 of
the United Nations Recommendations
on the Transport of Dangerous Goods—
Model Regulations (UN Model
Regulations) was amended so that four
Division 1.4S explosives (i.e., UN0349,
UN0367, UN0384, and UN0481) must
now pass an additional test (i.e., the UN
6(d) unconfined package test) to
continue to maintain the 1.4S
classification. This requirement was
also implemented for international air
transport in the International Civil
Aviation Organization (ICAO) Technical
Instructions for the Safe Transport of
Dangerous Goods by Air on January 1,
2019, and for international vessel
transport in the International Maritime
Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code on
January 1, 2020.
On May 11, 2020, PHMSA published
a final rule titled, ‘‘Hazardous Materials:

Harmonization with International
Standards’’ [HM–215O; 85 FR 27810].2
As part of the HM–215O final rule,
PHMSA amended the Hazardous
Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR
parts 171–180) to codify this
amendment with a mandatory
compliance date of May 10, 2021.
PHMSA identified 2,211 EX approvals
assigned to the four UN identification
numbers (UN ID numbers) (UN0349,
UN0367, UN0384, and UN0481)
impacted by the required UN 6(d)
unconfined package test. These 2,211
EX approvals are held by approximately
145 separate holders. Because of the
new UN 6(d) test requirement, existing
approvals for the four affected UN ID
numbers must be modified in
accordance with 49 CFR 107.713(a)(1) to
reflect whether EX approval holders
have had this test successfully
performed.
Approval holders must either show
cause why their approvals should not be
terminated or apply for a modification
of their approval prior to the effective
date to avoid termination. EX approval
holders have until June 3, 2021, to
provide a written response to PHMSA
either to request that PHMSA modify
their approval(s) or otherwise show
cause as to why their approval(s) should
not be terminated, as required by 49
CFR 107.713(c)(1). Approvals for which
PHMSA does not receive a modification
request by June 3, 2021, are subject to
termination in a subsequent Federal
Register notice.
PHMSA is providing the following
options to current holders of an EX
approval affected by this requirement.
Affected EX approval-holders may:
(1) Request that PHMSA maintain
their current classification based on
successful completion and passing of
the UN 6(d) test;
(2) Modify their EX approval to a
higher classification; or
(3) Notify PHMSA that their EX
approval is no longer in use and may be
terminated.
Requests may be submitted to PHMSA
via email at [email protected] or the
PHMSA EX Portal at https://
portal.phmsa.dot.gov/PHMSAPortal2.
This notice is primarily intended to
reach EX approval holders that have yet
to take action or that PHMSA has been
unable to contact, and to serve as a
Show Cause notice in accordance with
49 CFR 107.713(a)(1) and (c) for all EX
approval holders who have not
submitted a modification request.
Holders of EX approvals who have yet
to request a modification of their

approval(s) are provided in Table 2.
Table 2 below contains a list of EX
approval holders by company name
indicated in their approval and
associated EX approval numbers and
UN ID numbers. This table accurately
reflects the population of holders from
whom PHMSA has yet to receive a
request to modify their approval(s) or
we have been unable to contact as of
March 31, 2021.
B. Requests To Maintain 1.4S
Classification
Applicants should submit a request
letter as described in 49 CFR 107.705 to
PHMSA asking to maintain their EX
approval classification as ‘‘1.4S.’’ The
application should include a copy of the
current EX approval and
documentation, such as a report from a
DOT-Approved Explosive Test Lab or
Competent Authority Approval, that
demonstrates completion and passing of
the UN 6(d) test. The application will be
evaluated, and if deemed satisfactory,
the EX approval will be revised with an
updated packaging note designating that
the classification meets UN 6(d) test
criteria.
C. Requests for Modification of EX
Approval to a Higher Classification
Applicants should submit a request
letter as described in 49 CFR 107.705 to
PHMSA asking that the current 1.4S
classification on their EX approval be
voluntarily up-classed (i.e.,
classification changing to a more
appropriate classification in the absence
of the UN 6(d) test) due to the UN 6(d)
test requirement. The application
should include a current copy of the EX
approval and either the original class
recommendation lab report or the
Competent Authority Approval
document upon which the 1.4S
classification was based. The
application will be evaluated, and if
deemed satisfactory, the EX approval
will then be modified to an appropriate
classification. These approvals will be
modified consistent with the
classifications noted in Table 1 below.
EX approvals that were issued for either
UN0349 or UN0481 materials may also
require additional information to
determine the most appropriate
compatibility group for the explosive or
whether there is a more specific proper
shipping name (PSN) that should be
used.
D. Termination of EX Approval
For those affected EX approvals for
which PHMSA receives no notification
to maintain or modify the EX approval,
they will be subject to termination
effective June 3, 2021, in accordance
