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.
Excellent class, super instructor, very easy to follow. No rushing through material. Would like to take his class again.

This was the 1st instructor that has made the topic actually enjoyable and easy to follow and understand. Far better than the "other" training providers our company has attended!

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
The training was impressive. I am not a fan of online training but this was put together very well. I would recommend Lion to others.
