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.
Excellent. I learned more in two days with Lion than at a 5-day program I took with another provider.

I tried other environmental training providers, but they were all sub-standard compared to Lion. I will not stray from Lion again!
Sara Sills
Environmental Specialist
Well designed and thorough program. Excellent summary of requirements with references. Inclusion of regulations in hard copy form, as well as full electronic with state pertinent regulations included is a great bonus!
Oscar Fisher
EHS Manager
Lion is my preferred trainer for hazmat and DOT.
Jim Jani
Environmental Coordinator
Amazing instructor; real-life examples. Lion training gets better every year!
Frank Papandrea
Environmental Manager
Lion courses always set the bar for content, reference, and practical application. Membership and access to the experts is an added bonus.
John Brown, CSP
Director of Safety & Env Affairs
The instructor was excellent. They knew all of the material without having to read from a notepad or computer.
Gary Hartzell
Warehouse Supervisor
As always, Lion never disappoints
Paul Resley
Environmental Coordinator
The instructor was very patient and engaging - willing to answer and help explain subject matter.
Misty Filipp
Material Control Superintendent
Best instructor ever! I was going to take my DOT training w/a different provider, but based on this presentation, I will also be doing my DOT training w/Lion!
