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 was excellent. They knew all of the material without having to read from a notepad or computer.

Warehouse Supervisor
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
Our instructor was very dynamic and kept everyone's interest. Hazmat shipping can be a dry, complicated topic but I was engaged the entire time.
Kimberly Arnao
Senior Director of EH&S
I used the IT support number available and my issue was resolved within a few minutes. I don't see anything that could have made it better.
Danny Province
EHS Professional
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
I attended training from another provider and learned absolutely nothing. Lion is much better. Hands down.
Nicole Eby
Environmental Specialist
Excellent job. Made what is very dry material interesting. Thoroughly explained all topics in easy-to-understand terms.
David Hertvik
Vice President
The online course was well thought out and organized, with good interaction between the student and the course.
Larry Ybarra
Material Release Agent
More thorough than a class I attended last year through another company.
Troy Yonkers
HSES Representative
The instructor was probably the best I ever had! He made the class enjoyable, was humorous at times, and very knowledgeable.
