  2. Disclaimers This presentation is for general guidance only and must not be used to determine compliance with 49 CFR Parts 100-185. This presentation does not satisfy the Training Requirements (49 CFR 172.704) for hazmat employees. If you need this training, please contact your nearest Safety-Kleen branch.

  3. Basic Necessities 49 CFR Part 172-173 Package It Mark It Placard It Label It

  4. Hazardous Materials Table HMT A list of all the proper shipping names that can be used to describe hazardous material for transportation in the U.S. Do not assume a substance is not hazardous if you do not find it listed in the HMT

  5. Hazardous Materials Table http://www.phmsa.dot.gov/staticfiles/PHMSA/DownloadableFiles/Files/Hazmat/Hazmat%20Table.xls

  6. Column 1 – Symbols Column 2 – Proper Shipping Names Roman type Supplemented by “punctuation marks” or words in italics Options indicated by “or” Singular or plural Upper or lower case Columns 1 & 2

  7. Column 3 – Hazard Class Explosive Gases Flammable and Combustible Liquids Flammable Solids Oxidizers and Organic Peroxides Poisons & Infectious Substances Radioactive Corrosive Miscellaneous

  8. Columns 4 & 5 Column 4 – Identification Number for each proper shipping name. • A four digit number preceded by “NA” for North America or “UN” for United Nations Column 5 – Packing Group I, II, III, if assigned. • Performance testing includes drop, leak-proofness, hydrostatic pressure, stacking and vibration Packing Group (PG): PG I – Greatest Danger PG II – Moderate Danger PG III – Minor Danger

  9. Columns 6 & 7 Column 6 – Label Codes • Indicates the primary hazard label • Indicate subsidiary hazard labels Column 7 – Special Provisions (§172.102) • Includes packaging provisions, prohibitions and exceptions

  10. Columns 8, 9 & 10 Column 8 – Packaging Authorizations (§173.***) • Exceptions (8A) • Non-bulk specification packaging (8B) • Bulk specification packaging (8C) Column 9 – Quantity Limitations • Passenger Aircraft/Rail (9A) • Cargo Aircraft Only (9B) Column 10 – Vessel Stowage Requirements • Cargo and passenger vessels (10A) • Specific hazardous materials (10B)

  11. Packaging Why is it Important? • First Line of Defense • To the handler • To the carrier • To the environment • Accidents in Transit • Public safety • Emergency response • Gets there in one piece!

  12. Packaging Selection Steps • Identify the Hazardous Material • Determine the Packing Group (Column 5) • Understand Special Provisions (Column 7) • You must always check! • Identify the Packaging Exceptions (Column 8A) • Exceptions are relief from the more stringent packaging requirements • Determine Bulk or Non-Bulk (Column 8B or 8C) • Look up the 173.*** for the approved packaging • Understand Packaging ID Codes

  13. Bulk Liquid (>119 gal) Solid (>882 lbs and capacity > 119 gal) Gas (Water capacity > 1000 lbs) Non-Bulk Liquid (≤119 gal) Solid (≤ 882 lbs and capacity ≤ 119 gal) Gas (Water capacity ≤ 1000 lbs) Bulk vs. Non-Bulk

  14. Understanding the Manufacturer’s UN Markings1A1/Y1.8/250/07/USA/M4369

  15. Type of Container 1=Drum 2=Wooden Barrel 3=Jerrican 4=Box 5=Bag 6=Composite Packaging 7=Pressure Receptacle Material of Construction A=Steel B=Aluminum C=Natural Wood D=Plywood F=Reconstituted Wood G=Fiberboard H=Plastic L=Textile M=Paper, Multi-Wall N=Metal other than Steel or Aluminum P=Glass, Porcelain, or Stoneware Non-Bulk Packaging Codes Category within Type 1=Closed Head 2=Open Head T = Used to denote a Salvage Drum which has been tested for leakproofness using water as the test media Examples: 1A1 is a closed-head steel drum 1H2 is an open-head plastic drum

  16. Type of Container 11=Rigid, designed for solids, loaded or unloaded by gravity 21=Rigid, designed for solids, loaded or unloaded under pressure > 10 kPa 13=Flexible, designed for solids, loaded or unloaded by gravity 31=Rigid, designed for liquids, loaded or unloaded by gravity Material of Construction A=Steel B=Aluminum C=Natural Wood D=Plywood F=Reconstituted Wood G=Fiberboard H=Plastic L=Textile M=Paper, Multi-Wall N=Metal other than Steel or Aluminum P=Glass, Porcelain, or Stoneware IBC Packaging Codes Category within Type Composite IBC 1=Rigid inner receptacle 2=Flexible inner receptacle Flexible IBC 1=Uncoated without liner 2=Coated without liner 3=Uncoated with liner 4=Coated with liner Example:13H4 is a flexible IBC made from coated plastic and includes a liner

  17. Performance Level X=Meets PG I, II and III tests Y=Meets PG II and III tests Z=Meets PG III tests Specific Gravity Weight of a liquid compared to weight of water For packages intended to hold liquids without inner containers OR Gross Weight (Kilograms) 1 lb = 0.454 kg For packages intended to hold solids or inner containers Second Set of Manufacturer’s Markings Examples: 1A1/Y1.8 is rated for Packing Groups II or III liquids with a specific gravity up to 1.8 1H2/X100is rated forPacking Groups I, II or III solids up to 100 kg in weight

  18. Test Pressure (Kilopascals) Maximum hydrostatic pressure for packages intended to hold liquids OR Solids For packaging containing solids or inner packaging Year of Manufacture Then… Country of Manufacture Place where the package was manufactured and marked Then… Name/Symbol of Manufacturer Last Set of Manufacturer’s Markings Examples: 1A1/Y1.8/250/07/USA/M439 was tested up to 250 kPa, manufactured in 2007, made in the USA and approved by M4269 1H2/X100/S/10/USA/M4339was rated for solids, manufactured in 2010, made in the USA and approved by M4339

  19. All Together Type 1=Drum 2=Wooden Barrel 3=Jerrican 4=Box 5=Bag 6=Composite Packaging 7=Pressure Receptacle Material A=Steel B=Aluminum C=Natural Wood D=Plywood F=Reconstituted Wood G=Fiberboard H=Plastic L=Textile M=Paper, Multi-Wall N=Metal other than Steel or Aluminum P=Glass, Porcelain, or Stoneware Category 1=Closed Head 2=Open Head T = Salvage Drum which has been tested for leakproofness Performance Level X=Meets PG I, II and III tests Y=Meets PG II and III tests Z=Meets PG III tests Specific Gravity For liquids OR Gross Weight For solids (kg) Test Pressure For liquids (kPa) OR Solids

  20. Salvage Drums Used when packages of hazardous materials are damaged, defective or found leaking. Must have sufficient cushioning and absorbent to prevent excessive movement and eliminate any free liquid at time drum is closed.

  21. Steel open and closed head drums MUST be marked with the UN number permanently embossed on the bottom. Plastic drums MUST be UN marked (embossed) on the side or the bottom. If labels are also used they must be durable. Marking Placement
