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.
My experience with Lion training, both online and in the classroom, is that they are far better organized and provide a better sequential explanation of the material.
Robert Roose
Manager, Dangerous Goods Transportation
Lion courses are the standard to which all other workshops should strive for!
Brody Saleen
Registered Environmental Health Specialist
Very good. I have always appreciated the way Lion Tech develops, presents and provides training and materials.
John Troy
Environmental Specialist
I tried other environmental training providers, but they were all sub-standard compared to Lion. I will not stray from Lion again!
Sara Sills
Environmental Specialist
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
Environmental Manager
I can take what I learned in this workshop and apply it to everyday work and relate it to my activities.
Shane Hersh
Materials Handler
Our instructor was very dynamic and kept everyone's interest. Hazmat shipping can be a dry, complicated topic but I was engaged the entire time.
Kimberly Arnao
Senior Director of EH&S
My experience with Lion classes has always been good. Lion Technology always covers the EPA requirements I must follow.
Steven Erlandson
Environmental Coordinator
Lion is my preferred trainer for hazmat and DOT.
Jim Jani
Environmental Coordinator
I really enjoyed this training. Even after years on both sides of the comprehension coin, I find myself still learning! The quality of the delivery exceeded much of the training I have received in the past.
