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.
Best course instructor I've ever had. Funny, relatable, engaging; made it interesting and challenged us as the professionals we are.

Course instructor was better prepared and presented better than other trainers. Course manual and references were easier to use as well.

Lion was very responsive to my initial questions and the website was user friendly.
Michael Britt
Supply Chain Director
I used the IT support number available and my issue was resolved within a few minutes. I don't see anything that could have made it better.

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.
