# Pipeline Safety: Petition for Waiver; BOC Gases
**AGENCY:**
Office of Pipeline Safety (OPS), Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).
**ACTION:**
Notice; Petition for Waiver; Correction.
**SUMMARY:**
PHMSA is correcting a petition for waiver published in the *Federal Register* on July 14, 2005 (70 FR 40780). That petition, from BOC Gases (BOC), requested a waiver from the pipeline safety standards at 49 CFR 195.306(c)(5) to allow the use of inert gas or carbon dioxide as the test medium for pressure testing an existing carbon dioxide pipeline. This notice corrects the supplementary information of that publication, which referred to a gas pipeline safety regulation when it should have referred to a hazardous liquid pipeline safety regulation.

**Correction**
In the *Federal Register* of July 14, 2005, in FR Doc. 05-13864, on page 40781, in the first column, correct the first paragraph of the *SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION* caption to read:
**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**
The hazardous liquid pipeline safety regulation at 49 CFR 195.306(c)(5) allows an operator of a carbon dioxide pipeline to use inert gas or carbon dioxide as the test medium if the pipe involved is new pipe having a longitudinal joint factor of 1.00.
