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.
Lion is easily and consistently the best option for compliance training. I've learned new information from every instructor I've had.

Lion courses always set the bar for content, reference, and practical application. Membership and access to the experts is an added bonus.

Lion is my preferred trainer for hazmat and DOT.
Jim Jani

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

This training broke down the regulations in an easy-to-understand manner and made them less overwhelming. I now feel I have the knowledge to make more informed decisions.

Amazing instructor; real-life examples. Lion training gets better every year!
Frank Papandrea
Environmental Manager
Lion provided an excellent introduction to environmental regulations, making the transition to a new career as an EHS specialist less daunting of a task. Drinking from a fire hose when the flow of water is lessened, is much more enjoyable!
Stephanie Weathers
SHE Specialist
The instructor took a rather drab set of topics and brought them to life with realistic real-life examples.
Tom Berndt
HSE Coordinator
Lion's training was by far the best online RCRA training I've ever taken. It was challenging and the layout was great!

I have been to other training companies, but Lion’s material is much better and easier to understand.
