On March 11, 2011 at 76 FR 13313, the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration proposed to amend the Hazardous Materials Regulations to mandate that facilities where cargo tanks are loaded or unloaded must perform risk assessments, develop safe operating procedures, and provide annual safety training for employees.
The safe operating procedures required by this rule include:
Pre-transfer checklists
Temperature and flow rate monitoring
Emergency response plans
Design, testing, and maintenance standards for transfer equipment
Facility oversight of carrier personnel
DOT-PHMSA will be accepting comments on this rule proposal until May 10, 2011.
Amazing instructor; real-life examples. Lion training gets better every year!
Frank Papandrea
Environmental Manager
Attending Lion Technology classes should be mandatory for every facility that ships or stores hazmat.

I have over 26 years of environmental compliance experience, and it has been some time since I have attended an environmental regulations workshop. I attended this course as preparation for EHS Audits for my six plants, and it was exactly what I was looking for.
Frank Sizemore
Director of Regulatory Affairs
I have been to other training companies, but Lion’s material is much better and easier to understand.
Mark Abell
Regional Manager
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!

Lion's training was by far the best online RCRA training I've ever taken. It was challenging and the layout was great!
Paul Harbison

Convenient; I can train when I want, where I want.
Barry Cook

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!
Diana Joyner
Senior Environmental Engineer
The course was very informative and presented in a way that was easily understood and remembered. I would recommend this course.
Jeffrey Tierno

Course instructor was better prepared and presented better than other trainers. Course manual and references were easier to use as well.
