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 was energetic and made learning fun compared to dry instructors from other training providers.

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!

Very witty instructor, made the long times sitting bearable. One of the few training courses I can say I actually enjoyed.

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

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

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

Lion was very extensive. There was a lot of things that were covered that were actually pertaining to what I do and work with. Great Job. I will be coming back in three years!

Lion's online training is more comprehensive, has better slides, and is a superior training experience than what I would get from other trainers.
