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

The instructor kept the class engaged and made learning fun. There was a lot of information to cover but time flew by. I will definitely use Lion in the future!

These are the best commercial course references I have seen (10+ years). Great job!
Ed Grzybowski
EHS & Facility Engineer
Excellent job. Made what is very dry material interesting. Thoroughly explained all topics in easy-to-understand terms.
David Hertvik
Vice President
Attending Lion Technology classes should be mandatory for every facility that ships or stores hazmat.
Genell Drake
Outbound Lead
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
Given the choice, I would do all coursework this way. In-person courses go very fast without the opportunity to pause or repeat anything.
Ellen Pelton
Chemical Laboratory Manager
Lion does a great job summarizing and communicating complicated EH&S-related regulations.
Michele Irmen
Sr. Environmental Engineer
Very good. I have always appreciated the way Lion Tech develops, presents and provides training and materials.
