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.
The instructor took a rather drab set of topics and brought them to life with realistic real-life examples.
Tom Berndt
HSE Coordinator
Our instructor was very dynamic and kept everyone's interest. Hazmat shipping can be a dry, complicated topic but I was engaged the entire time.
Kimberly Arnao
Senior Director of EH&S
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!
Donna Moot
Hazardous Waste Professional
Attending Lion Technology classes should be mandatory for every facility that ships or stores hazmat.
Genell Drake
Outbound Lead
Convenient; I can train when I want, where I want.
Barry Cook
Hazmat Shipping Professional
Lion does a great job summarizing and communicating complicated EH&S-related regulations.
Michele Irmen
Sr. Environmental Engineer
You blew the doors off the competition!
Stephen Bieschke
Facilities Manager
I like Lion's workshops the best because they really dig into the information you need to have when you leave the workshop.
Tom Bush, Jr.
EHS Manager
I had a positive experience utilizing this educational program. It was very informative, convenient, and rewarding from a career perspective.
John Gratacos
Logistics Manager
Much better than my previous class with another company. The Lion instructor made sense, kept me awake and made me laugh!
