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.
Attending Lion Technology classes should be mandatory for every facility that ships or stores hazmat.

I was recently offered an opportunity to take my training through another company, but I politely declined. I only attend Lion Technology workshops.

Lion is easily and consistently the best option for compliance training. I've learned new information from every instructor I've had.

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!

The course is well thought out and organized in a way that leads to a clearer understanding of the total training.
