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.
Amazing instructor; real-life examples. Lion training gets better every year!
Frank Papandrea

The instructor was probably the best I ever had! He made the class enjoyable, was humorous at times, and very knowledgeable.
Mary Sue Michon
Environmental Administrator
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 instructor was great, explaining complex topics in terms that were easily understandable and answering questions clearly and thoroughly.
Brittany Holm
Lab Supervisor
The course was very well structured and covered the material in a clear, concise manner.
Ian Martinez

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
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
Course instructor was better prepared and presented better than other trainers. Course manual and references were easier to use as well.
Marty Brownfield
Hazardous Waste Professional
Lion was very extensive. There was a lot of things that were covered that were actually pertaining to what I do and work with. Great Job. I will be coming back in three years!
Tony Petrik
Hazmat Shipping Professional
I was able to present my scenario to the instructor and worked thru the regulations together. In the past, I attended another training firm's classes. Now, I have no intention of leaving Lion!
