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.
More thorough than a class I attended last year through another company.

This course went above my expectations from the moment I walked in the door. The instructor led us through two days packed with useful compliance information.

As always, Lion never disappoints
Paul Resley

I like Lion's workshops the best because they really dig into the information you need to have when you leave the workshop.
Tom Bush, Jr.
EHS Manager
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.

The online course was well thought out and organized, with good interaction between the student and the course.

The instructor was very knowledgeable and provided pertinent information above and beyond the questions that were asked.

This is a very informative training compared to others. It covers everything I expect to learn and even a lot of new things.

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

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.
