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

SUMMARY: PHMSA published in the Federal Register of January 5, 2015 (80 
FR 168), a document containing revisions to the Pipeline Safety 
Regulations. That document inadvertently removed paragraphs (b)(1)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PHMSA published in the Federal Register of 
January 5, 2015 (80 FR 168), a document containing revisions to the 
Pipeline Safety Regulations. That document inadvertently removed 
paragraphs (b)(1) through (b)(4) in 49 CFR 192.153; incorrectly listed 
a cross-reference in Sec.  193.2321(b)(1); incorrectly formatted the 
word ``see'' in various sections in parts 192, 193, and 195; and 
specified an incorrect authority citation in part 193. This document 
corrects the final regulations to address these issues.
