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.
The instructor was very very informative, helpful, understandable and pleasant. This course answered many questions I had, being new to this industry.

Much better than my previous class with another company. The Lion instructor made sense, kept me awake and made me laugh!
Marti Severs
Enterprise Safety Manager
Lion is easily and consistently the best option for compliance training. I've learned new information from every instructor I've had.
Rachel Mathis
EHS Specialist
The instructor did an excellent job presenting a very dry subject; keeping everyone interested and making it enjoyable.
Marc Bugg

The instructor took a rather drab set of topics and brought them to life with realistic real-life examples.
Tom Berndt
HSE Coordinator
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
Lion's training was by far the best online RCRA training I've ever taken. It was challenging and the layout was great!
Paul Harbison
Hazardous Waste Professional
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!

The course is well thought out and organized in a way that leads to a clearer understanding of the total training.
