On March 2, 2011 PHMSA published a final rule implementing enhanced enforcement procedures authorized by the Hazardous Materials Transportation Safety and Security Reauthorization Act of 2005. These new procedures supplement those currently in place, and apply to all of the DOT’s operating administrations. The new requirements become effective on May 2, 2011.
Under these new procedures the DOT can now:
detain potentially noncompliant packages for inspection.
open detained packages, in order to identify non-compliant or undeclared hazmat.
issue out-of-service orders to remove transport vehicles or packages from transportation to mitigate imminent hazards.
The instructor's energy, enthusiasm, and knowledge of the subject make the class a great learning experience!
Brian Martinez
Warehouse Operator
Well designed and thorough program. Excellent summary of requirements with references. Inclusion of regulations in hard copy form, as well as full electronic with state pertinent regulations included is a great bonus!
Oscar Fisher
EHS Manager
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!
Diana Joyner
Senior Environmental Engineer
These are the best commercial course references I have seen (10+ years). Great job!
Ed Grzybowski
EHS & Facility Engineer
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
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 at the top of the industry in compliance training. Course content and structure are updated frequently to make annual re-training enjoyable. I like that Lion has experts that I can contact for 1 year after the training.
Caroline Froning
Plant Chemist
Very witty instructor, made the long times sitting bearable. One of the few training courses I can say I actually enjoyed.
John Hutchinson
Senior EHS Engineer
Given the choice, I would do all coursework this way. In-person courses go very fast without the opportunity to pause or repeat anything.
Ellen Pelton
Chemical Laboratory Manager
More thorough than a class I attended last year through another company.
