Transportation's Hazardous Material Regulations (49 CFR part 107, 
subpart B), notice is hereby given that the Office of Hazardous 
Materials Safety has received the application described herein. This

changes, additional mode of transportation, etc.) are descried in 
footnotes to the application number. Application numbers with the 
suffix ``M'' denote a modification request. These applications have 
been separated from the new applications for special permits to 
facilitate processing.

Materials Safety Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation,
