ACTION: Proposed termination of explosive approvals.

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

SUMMARY: PHMSA proposes to terminate the explosive approvals listed 
herein. PHMSA, via certified mail, attempted to contact all of the 
below listed approval holders during the month of October 2014. The 
certified letters were titled ``Hazardous Materials Safety Law 
Division, Letter of Warning: Test Series 6(d) requirements for Division 
1.4S Explosive Approvals.'' The certified letters requested that the 
approval holders notify PHMSA within 30 days with their intent with 
respect to the approvals. They were given the options to provide 
evidence of UN 6(d) testing, request a reassignment of the EX number to 
a higher compatibility group than ``S'', or request termination. To 
date, no correspondence has been received by PHMSA concerning the below 
listed explosive approval numbers.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Ryan Paquet, Director, Approvals 
and Permits Division, Office of Hazardous Materials Safety, (202) 366-
4512, PHMSA, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC 20590. 
Correspondence with respect to the below listed explosive approval 
numbers should be sent to [email protected], subject line--``UN 6(d) 
Testing'' or respond to the listed address for Mr. Ryan Paquet.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Introduction

    In this notice, PHMSA's Office of Hazardous Materials Safety (OHMS) 
is proposing to terminate the approvals listed below for the approval 
holders' failure to provide PHMSA with evidence that UN 6(d) testing 
has been performed in accordance with 49 CFR 172.102(c)(1) (Special 
Provision 347) or requesting a reassignment of the EX number to a 
higher compatibility group other than ``S''.

II. Background

    On January 19, 2011, PHMSA published a final rule (76 FR 3308; HM-
215K) titled ``Hazardous Materials: Harmonization with the United 
Nations Recommendations, International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code, 
and the International Civil Aviation Organization Technical 
Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air''. The 
final rule amended Special Provision 347 to require successful testing 
according to UN Test Series 6(d) of Part I of the UN Manual of Tests 
and Criteria. This change affected explosives classified as Division 
1.4S, and impacted eight UN Numbers, including: UN0323, UN0366, UN0441, 
UN0445, UN0455, UN0456, UN0460, and UN0500. This requirement became 
effective for transportation by aircraft on July 1, 2011, for 
transportation by vessel on January 1, 2012, and for domestic highway 
and rail transportation on January 1, 2014. PHMSA has no records of the 
required UN 6(d) testing for the below listed EX numbers.

III. Action

    PHMSA will terminate the below listed approvals 30 days after this 
notice is published in the Federal Register, unless the holder requests 
reconsideration as outlined in 49 CFR 107.715.

IV. Approvals Scheduled for Termination
