On March 11, 2011 at 76 FR 13313, the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration proposed to amend the Hazardous Materials Regulations to mandate that facilities where cargo tanks are loaded or unloaded must perform risk assessments, develop safe operating procedures, and provide annual safety training for employees.
The safe operating procedures required by this rule include:
Pre-transfer checklists
Temperature and flow rate monitoring
Emergency response plans
Design, testing, and maintenance standards for transfer equipment
Facility oversight of carrier personnel
DOT-PHMSA will be accepting comments on this rule proposal until May 10, 2011.
Course instructor was better prepared and presented better than other trainers. Course manual and references were easier to use as well.

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.

Lion courses always set the bar for content, reference, and practical application. Membership and access to the experts is an added bonus.

I attended training from another provider and learned absolutely nothing. Lion is much better. Hands down.
