On March 2, 2011 PHMSA published a final rule implementing enhanced enforcement procedures authorized by the Hazardous Materials Transportation Safety and Security Reauthorization Act of 2005. These new procedures supplement those currently in place, and apply to all of the DOT’s operating administrations. The new requirements become effective on May 2, 2011.
Under these new procedures the DOT can now:
detain potentially noncompliant packages for inspection.
open detained packages, in order to identify non-compliant or undeclared hazmat.
issue out-of-service orders to remove transport vehicles or packages from transportation to mitigate imminent hazards.
I was able to present my scenario to the instructor and worked thru the regulations together. In the past, I attended another training firm's classes. Now, I have no intention of leaving Lion!
Diana Joyner
Senior Environmental Engineer
The instructor was very engaging and helped less experienced people understand the concepts.
Steve Gall
Safety Leader
The instructor does a great job at presenting material in an approachable way. I have been able to save my company about $30,000 in the last year with what I have learned from Lion!
Curtis Ahonen
EHS&S Manager
This course went above my expectations from the moment I walked in the door. The instructor led us through two days packed with useful compliance information.
Rachel Stewart

These are the best commercial course references I have seen (10+ years). Great job!
Ed Grzybowski
EHS & Facility Engineer
The instructor kept the class engaged and made learning fun. There was a lot of information to cover but time flew by. I will definitely use Lion in the future!

Lion courses always set the bar for content, reference, and practical application. Membership and access to the experts is an added bonus.
John Brown, CSP
Director of Safety & Env Affairs
Very witty instructor, made the long times sitting bearable. One of the few training courses I can say I actually enjoyed.
John Hutchinson
Senior EHS Engineer
The instructor's energy, enthusiasm, and knowledge of the subject make the class a great learning experience!

I have been to other training companies, but Lion’s material is much better and easier to understand.
