本条款规定了美国管道与危险材料安全管理局(PHMSA)针对对安全无直接或重大影响的危险品违规行为的“简易处罚单”(Ticketing)程序。当违规情节较轻时,副局长可直接签发处罚单而非启动复杂的正式调查流程。被指控方在收到处罚单后45天内必须选择:支付罚款、提交非正式回应或申请行政听证。若逾期未处理,视为承认违规并自动产生债务。该机制旨在简化轻微违规的执法效率,降低合规成本。
- (a) For an alleged violation that does not have a direct or substantial impact on safety, the Associate Administrator may issue a ticket.
- (b) The Associate Administrator issues a ticket by mailing it by certified or registered mail to the person alleged to have committed the violation. The ticket includes:
- (1) A statement of the facts on which the Associate Administrator bases the conclusion that the person has committed the alleged violation;
- (2) The maximum penalty provided for by statute, the proposed full penalty determined according to PHMSA's civil penalty guidelines and the statutory criteria for penalty assessment, and the ticket penalty amount; and
- (3) A statement that within 45 days of receipt of the ticket, the person must pay the penalty in accordance with paragraph (d) of this section, make an informal response under § 107.317, or request a formal administrative hearing under § 107.319.
- (c) If the person makes an informal response or requests a formal administrative hearing, the Associate Administrator forwards the inspection report, ticket and response to the Office of the Chief Counsel for processing under §§ 107.307-107.339, except that the Office of the Chief Counsel will not issue a Notice of Probable Violation under § 107.311. The Office of the Chief Counsel may impose a civil penalty that does not exceed the proposed full penalty set forth in the ticket.
- (d) Payment of the ticket penalty amount must be made in accordance with the instructions on the ticket.
- (e) If within 45 days of receiving the ticket the person does not pay the ticket amount, make an informal response, or request a formal administrative hearing, the person has waived the right to make an informal response or request a hearing, has admitted the violation and owes the ticket penalty amount to PHMSA.
