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.
I can take what I learned in this workshop and apply it to everyday work and relate it to my activities.

The instructor's energy, enthusiasm, and knowledge of the subject make the class a great learning experience!

Given the choice, I would do all coursework this way. In-person courses go very fast without the opportunity to pause or repeat anything.

I love that the instructor emphasized the thought process behind the regs.

The instructor was very engaging and helped less experienced people understand the concepts.

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!

I tried other environmental training providers, but they were all sub-standard compared to Lion. I will not stray from Lion again!
