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 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.
Frank Sizemore
Director of Regulatory Affairs
Excellent course. Very interactive. Explanations are great whether you get the questions wrong or right.
Gregory Thompson
Environmental, Health & Safety Regional Manager
The instructor was very knowledgeable and provided pertinent information above and beyond the questions that were asked.

As always, Lion never disappoints
Paul Resley

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

Shipping Manager
Attending Lion Technology classes should be mandatory for every facility that ships or stores hazmat.
Genell Drake

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!

Lion's training was by far the best online RCRA training I've ever taken. It was challenging and the layout was great!

The instructor created a great learning environment.

Lion's online training is more comprehensive, has better slides, and is a superior training experience than what I would get from other trainers.
