Chemical Transportation Advisory Committee (CTAC) Subcommittee on 
the Revision of Title 46 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 151

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DOT.

ACTION: Notice of meeting.

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

SUMMARY: The Subcommittee on the Revision of the Regulations for Barges 
Carrying Bulk Liquid Hazardous Materials Cargoes, Title 46 CFR part 
151, of CTAC will meet to discuss recommendations for developing a new 
part 152 in title 46 CFR. The new part 152 will encompass regulations 
for barges carrying bulk liquefied flammable or compressed gas 
hazardous materials. The meeting will be open to the public.

DATES: The meeting will be held on November 4, 1994, from 9:00 a.m. to 
4:30 p.m.

ADDRESSES: The meeting will be held at the offices of the American 
Bureau of Shipping, 16855 Northchase Drive, Houston, Texas 77060. 
Personnel attending the meeting should report to the main floor 
reception area for direction to the meeting room.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: LCDR Robert F. Corbin, Commandant (G-
MTH-1), U.S. Coast Guard Headquarters, 2100 Second Street SW., 
Washington, DC 20593-0001, telephone (202) 267-1217.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice of this meeting is given pursuant to 
the Federal Advisory Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. App. 2 section 1 et seq.
    The carriage of bulk liquefied flammable and compressed gases by 
barge is currently regulated under 46 CFR parts 38 and 151. During the 
revision process of 46 CFR part 151, the Subcommittee determined it 
would be appropriate to develop a new part 152 for regulating bulk 
liquefied flammable and compressed gases while continuing to regulate 
the carriage of bulk liquid hazardous material cargoes under part 151. 
The Subcommittee's liquefied flammable gas working group will present 
its recommendations for the new part 152 regulations to the full 
Subcommittee at this meeting.

    Dated: September 30, 1994.

Rear Admiral, U.S. Coast Guard, Chief, Office of Marine Safety, 
Security and Environmental Protection.
