Sec.  106.35  Interim final rule.

    An interim final rule is issued without first issuing a notice of 
proposed rulemaking and accepting public comments and sets out new 
regulatory requirements and their effective date. PHMSA may issue an 
interim final rule if it finds, for good cause, that notice and public 
procedure are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public 
interest. PHMSA will clearly set out this finding in the interim final 
rule. After receiving and reviewing public comments, as well as any 
other relevant documents, PHMSA may revise the interim final rule and 
then issue a final rule.
