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.
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!

I had a positive experience utilizing this educational program. It was very informative, convenient, and rewarding from a career perspective.

The instructor does a great job at presenting material in an approachable way. I have been able to save my company about $30,000 in the last year with what I have learned from Lion!

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.

I tried other environmental training providers, but they were all sub-standard compared to Lion. I will not stray from Lion again!

Lion was very extensive. There was a lot of things that were covered that were actually pertaining to what I do and work with. Great Job. I will be coming back in three years!

These are the best commercial course references I have seen (10+ years). Great job!

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