"Harmonization with the United Nations Recommendations, International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code, and International Civil Aviation Organization's Technical Instructions"

SUMMARY: This final rule amends a requirement for the use of the International Civil Aviation Organization's Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air (ICAO Technical Instructions) and updates references in the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR) to include the most recent amendments to the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code (IMDG Code) and the ICAO Technical Instructions. These amendments are necessary to facilitate the continued transport of hazardous materials in international commerce by vessel and aircraft at the time these international regulations become effective.
