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.
These are the best classes I attend each year. I always take something away and implement improvements at my sites.

EH&S Manager
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
The instructor clearly enjoys his job and transmits that enthusiasm. He made a dry subject very interesting and fun.
Teresa Arellanes
EHS Manager
The instructor took a rather drab set of topics and brought them to life with realistic real-life examples.
Tom Berndt
HSE Coordinator
No comparison. Lion has the best RCRA training ever!!
Matt Sabine
Environmental Specialist
Lion's information is very thorough and accurate. Presenter was very good.
Melissa Little
Regulatory Manager
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
I chose Lion's online webinar because it is simple, effective, and easily accessible.
Jeremy Bost
Environmental Health & Safety Technician
The online course was well thought out and organized, with good interaction between the student and the course.
Larry Ybarra
Material Release Agent
The instructor had knowledge of regulations and understanding of real-world situations. The presentation style was engaging and fostered a positive atmosphere for information sharing.
