## Abstract

On December 9, 2005, PHMSA published a final rule to revise terminology, definitions, and requirements for consistency with the Hazardous Materials Safety and Security Reauthorization Act of 2005. These amendments included revising the definitions of "hazmat employee" and "hazmat employer"; modifying shipping paper retention requirements; providing a security plan exception for farmers; and replacing the term "Exemption" with "Special permit." This final rule corrects an error in the final rule. In addition, we are clarifying the amendments applicable to shipping paper retention requirements, the definition of "hazmat employer," and the transition from "Exemption" to "Special permit."
