Be sure to check out what’s new from the US Environmental Protection Agency (proposed new rules for hazardous waste generators, this is big!), Federal Aviation Administration (preparation for the big ICAO conference), Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (changes to the driver training requirements), Federal Railroad Administration (safety grants available for safe transportation of energy products), and the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (changes to how special permit and approval requests are approved).
On its website the US Government Printing Office makes a wealth of Federal publications available for review and download; one of these is the Federal Register.
