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.
I was recently offered an opportunity to take my training through another company, but I politely declined. I only attend Lion Technology workshops.
Stephanie Gilliam
Material Production/Logistics Manager
Best course instructor I've ever had. Funny, relatable, engaging; made it interesting and challenged us as the professionals we are.
Amanda Schwartz
Environmental Coordinator
I like the consistency of Lion workshops. The materials are well put together and instructors are top notch!
Kevin Pylka
Permitting, Compliance & Environmental Manager
The price was reasonable, the time to complete the course was manageable, and the flexibility the online training allowed made it easy to complete.

Having the tutorial buttons for additional information was extremely beneficial.
Sharon Ziemek
EHS Manager
The instructor's energy, enthusiasm, and knowledge of the subject make the class a great learning experience!
Brian Martinez
Warehouse Operator
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
Excellent course. Very interactive. Explanations are great whether you get the questions wrong or right.
Gregory Thompson
Environmental, Health & Safety Regional Manager
The instructor took a rather drab set of topics and brought them to life with realistic real-life examples.
Tom Berndt
HSE Coordinator
We have a very busy work schedule and using Lion enables us to take the course at our own time. It makes it easy for me to schedule my employees' training.
