Entities that load or unload liquid hazardous materials involving bulk packagings will be most likely to respond to these ICRs. This OMB control number includes reporting requests. These ICRs are typically conducted on an as-needed basis. The information in these ICRs consist of testing reports conducted by the entities and provided to enforcement personnel. The information within these ICRs may be requested by PHMSA for enforcement purposes. The purpose of these ICRs are to ensure that equipment used in the loading or unloading of liquid hazardous materials involving bulk packagings is done so in compliance with the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR) ensuring their safe transportation. Revisions to the ICRs within this control number were due to PHMSA going from one broad ICR to two ICRs in order to more accurately quantify the burdens under this OMB control number. During PHMSA’s review of the burden, it was noted that historically the information collections were grouped into a single collection. Following this review, PHMSA has adjusted this burden to eleven different information collections. Because of this adjustment, there has been a change to the number of respondents and responses.
