SUMMARY: RSPA is amending the Annex III, which is entitled Because marine pollutants are Hazardous Materials Regulations by "Regulations for the Prevention of transported over or near bodies of water listing and regulating, in all modes of Pollution by Harmful Substances in the air, rail and highway modes of transportation, those materials- Carried by Sea in Packaged.Form or in transport, such transportation has the identified as marine pollutants by the Freight Containers, Portable Tanks or potential to result in releases that could International Maritime Organization.

In developing the NPRM, implement the provisions of Annex IlI of harmful packaged substances. Many of RSPA determined that there are certain the 1973 International Convention for these substances, such as pesticides and commodities that present an the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, herbicides, are known to kill or retard environmental hazard that are 'not as modified by the Protocol of 1978 the growth of marine life and to currently regulated as hazardous (MARPOL 73/78), and to address the bioaccumulate in marine organisms, materials under the HMR. risks posed by environmentally causing potential danger to the food The need to regulate marine hazardous materials when transported chain, including health risks to humans pollutants in modes of transportation in and other wildlife in commerce.
