Control Room Management/Human Factors Rule Correction

[Docket No. PHMSA-2007-27954; Amdt. Nos. 192-112 and 195-93]

The Department of Transportation/Pipeline Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) is correcting the human factors / control room management final rule that appeared in the Federal Register (74 FR 63310) on December 3, 2009. (See related article in the DOT Pipeline Compliance News, December 2009 Special Edition.) That final rule contained errors regarding certain dates, both in the preamble and the amendments. The corrections are given below.

  • 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.”
  • In §192.631 paragraph (a)(2), in the second sentence, remove the phrase “implement the procedures no later than February 1, 2012” and add the phrase “implement the procedures no later than February 1, 2013” in its place.
  • In §195.446 paragraph (a), in the last sentence, remove the phrase “implement the procedures no later than February 1, 2012”, and add the phrase “implement the procedures no later than February 1, 2013” in its place.
