GRSG | Session 109 | 29 Sep-2 Oct 2015

33. The expert from Japan introduced GRSG-109-08 (superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2015/27) proposing to remove from UN Regulation No. 110 the provisions for welded constructions of compressed natural gas (CNG) cylinders or metal liners, including high-strength steel CNG cylinders. The proposal received a number of comments on the need for performance oriented requirements and the transitional provisions. Instead of adopting the proposal as a new 03 series of amendments, GRSG preferred to defer the adoption by WP.29 of the draft 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 110 (currently on the agenda of the November 2015 session of WP.29 as ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2015/90) to its March 2016 session to insert the amendments proposed by Japan. GRSG endorsed the submission of a new consolidated proposal for the 02 series of amendments as reproduced in GRSG-109-22-Rev.1.

34. In this respect, GRSG adopted the proposed text as reproduced in Annex VI to the report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2016 sessions, as a new draft 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 110 (superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2015/90).
