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 clearly enjoys his job and transmits that enthusiasm. He made a dry subject very interesting and fun.

Lion's course was superior to others I have taken in the past. Very clear in the presentation and the examples helped to explain the content presented.

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

I was recently offered an opportunity to take my training through another company, but I politely declined. I only attend Lion Technology workshops.

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!
