Text prepared by the Chair of the Task Force on Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) vehicles (on the basis of document GRSG/2013/7) to introduce type approval provisions for vehicles equipped with LNG propulsion systems. The proposal has been prepared as a new consolidated version (Revision 3) of UN Regulation No. 110.

Hotel list for the 2nd session of the task force on mechanical couplings for agricultural vehicles.

Proposal from the expert from France to improve and re-arrange the wording of the text of the regulation in accordance with the informal group proposal for amendments to UN R43 (document GRSG-104-43).

Map provided to assist attendees at the 2nd session of the task force on mechanical couplings for agricultural vehicles.

Invitation to the first session of the Task Force on Mechanical Couplings for Agricultural Vehicles.

Draft text of a previous proposal for a UN Regulation on “Uniform Provisions Concerning the Approval of Mechanical Coupling Components for Agricultural Vehicles” fro July 2011 marked up in light of current effort to update UN R55.

Table to assist the TFAC in updating provisions for mechanical couplings of agricultural vehicles.

Invitation to the second session of the task force on mechanical couplings for agricultural vehicles.

Draft text following discussions of the first agricultural vehicle couplings task force session.

Proposal for a draft supplement to UN R115 or for a draft corrigendum to Supplement 5 to the regulation (reference document WP.29/2012/104). The amendment would replace FC_mean with FC_norm and provide an improved definition of the term.

Proposal from the GFV Informal Group. FC_mean, as defined in paragraphs 6.1.2.4.3.2. (LPG) and 6.2.2.4.3.2. (CNG) of UN Regulation No. 115, is the mean value of the fuel consumptions of all the parent (test) vehicles, whereas the calculation of the gas ratio has to be made individually for each parent vehicle.

Therefore, FC_mean has to be replaced by FC_norm as defined in UN R101.

This correction would align UN R115 with the corresponding provisions set out in UN R83

Text from the Informal Group on Gaseous Fuelled Vehicles in order to comply with a request by the GRSG. Amendments proposed by the LNG Task Force on incorporating LNG systems into Regulation 110 were approved by the 104th session of the GRSG (GRSG/2013/7). The German delegate, recognizing that potential methane release — venting from ‘boil off’ — is an environmental issue suggested that the issue of holding time for LNG and its venting be brought forward to the GRPE.

Information provided to GRPE at the request of GRSG to explain the nature of LNG container venting as a safety precaution responding to LNG boil-off effects on pressure levels.

Proposal and initial draft language to establish uniform requirements and approval procedures for satellite-based in-vehicle emergency response systems for post-accident communications.

Various corrections and amendments, including SDWEE revisions, to UN R107 and
series of corrections to UN R43, as approved by the GRSG.

Schauer proposals concerning classification of tractor drawbars and their hitch rings and to limit the coupling device actuating force to 40 daN.
