REGULATORY FACILITY GUIDES FOR THE TRANSPORTATION OF HAZARDOUS AND OTHER MATERIALS

Regulatory facility guides (RFGs) are being developed to provide the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) contractor facilities with the understanding of the exact applicability of specific transportation regulations to DOE shippers. These detailed state-specific compilations of federal, state, tribal, local, and international transportation regulations should lead to enhanced compliance, fewer efforts, and less confusion. To date, RFGs for three states have been developed. The RFGs for Tennessee and Ohio were finalized in February 1994 and have been distributed under a controlled distribution. The RFG for New Mexico is in the final draft form and is undergoing DOE review. Two additional RFGs, for the states of Idaho and California, are expected to be completed by September 1944.
