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.
If I need thorough training or updating, I always use Lion. Lion is always the best in both instruction and materials.

I will never go anywhere, but to Lion Technology.
Dawn Swofford
EHS Technician
These are the best classes I attend each year. I always take something away and implement improvements at my sites.
Kim Racine
EH&S Manager
Excellent. I learned more in two days with Lion than at a 5-day program I took with another provider.
Francisco Gallardo
HES Technician
The instructor clearly enjoys his job and transmits that enthusiasm. He made a dry subject very interesting and fun.
Teresa Arellanes
EHS Manager
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
The exercises in the DOT hazardous materials management course are especially helpful in evaluating your understanding of course information.
Morgan Bliss
Principal Industrial Hygienist
More thorough than a class I attended last year through another company.
Troy Yonkers
HSES Representative
This is a very informative training compared to others. It covers everything I expect to learn and even a lot of new things.

The price was reasonable, the time to complete the course was manageable, and the flexibility the online training allowed made it easy to complete.
