DHS/USCG RIN: 1625-AB12 Publication ID: Fall 2008 
Title: Tank Level or Pressure Monitoring Devices: Removal of Regulations 
Abstract: This rulemaking would remove the requirements found in title 33 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) parts 155 and 156 for tank level or pressure monitoring (TLPM) devices as published in the Federal Register of September 17, 2002 (67 FR 58515). Authority to remove these regulations comes from section 702 of Public Law 108-293. Market or Regulatory Failure Analysis: No market failure was identified. Since the Coast Guard published the final rule in September 2002, no TLPM devices have been submitted to the Coast Guard for approval, and there are currently no devices on the market that meet the performance requirements of 33 CFR 150.490 for a TLPM device. The justification is improved functioning of government.
