8、.) di-rects the Secretary of Transportation to establish regulations for the safe and secure transportation of hazardous materials in commerce, as the Sec-retary considers appropriate. The Sec-retary is authorized to apply these reg-ulations to persons who transport haz-ardous materials in commerce.

9、 In addi-tion, the law authorizes the Secretary to apply these regulations to persons who cause hazardous materials to be transported in commerce. The law also authorizes the Secretary to apply these regulations to persons who manufac-ture or maintain a packaging or a com-ponent of a packaging that

10、is rep-resented, marked, certified, or sold as qualified for use in the transportation of a hazardous material in commerce. Federal hazardous material transpor-tation law also applies to anyone who indicates by marking or other means that a hazardous material being trans-ported in commerce is presen

11、t in a package or transport conveyance when it is not, and to anyone who tampers with a package or transport convey-ance used to transport hazardous mate-rials in commerce or a required mark-ing, label, placard, or shipping descrip-tion. Regulations prescribed in accord-ance with Federal hazardous m

12、aterials transportation law shall govern safety aspects, including security, of the transportation of hazardous materials that the Secretary considers appro-priate. In 49 CFR 1.53, the Secretary delegated authority to issue regula-tions for the safe and secure transpor-tation of hazardous materials
