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.
Lion does a great job summarizing and communicating complicated EH&S-related regulations.

I have attended other training providers, but Lion is best. Lion is king of the hazmat jungle!!!
Henry Watkins

I can't say enough how pleased I was with this course! Everything finally makes sense.
Kim Graham

Lion is my preferred trainer for hazmat and DOT.
Jim Jani
Environmental Coordinator
Excellent. I learned more in two days with Lion than at a 5-day program I took with another provider.
Francisco Gallardo
HES Technician
The online course was well thought out and organized, with good interaction between the student and the course.
Larry Ybarra
Material Release Agent
Lion's online training is more comprehensive, has better slides, and is a superior training experience than what I would get from other trainers.
Robert Brenner
District Environmental Manager
The instructor's energy, enthusiasm, and knowledge of the subject make the class a great learning experience!
Brian Martinez
Warehouse Operator
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
I have over 26 years of environmental compliance experience, and it has been some time since I have attended an environmental regulations workshop. I attended this course as preparation for EHS Audits for my six plants, and it was exactly what I was looking for.
