24 Definitions, Regulations and Provisions 49 CFR defines Hazard Class 3 materials as flammable or combustible liquid. A flammable liquid is defined in 49 CFR (a) as a liquid having a flash point of not more than 140 F, or any material in a liquid phase with a flash point at or above 100 F that is intentionally heated and offered for transportation or transported at or above its flash point in a bulk packaging. Exceptions to the definition for a flammable liquid are shown in 49 CFR (a)(1)-(5). A combustible liquid is defined in 49 CFR (b)(1) as any liquid that does not meet the definition of any other hazard class specified in [the hazardous materials regulations 49 CFR parts ] and has a flash point above 140 F and below 200 F. 49 CFR (b)(2) states that a flammable liquid with a flash point at or above 100 F that does not meet the definition of any other hazard class may be reclassed as a combustible liquid. The required Hazard Class 3 label is shown on the right. Per 49 CFR (a)(1), the Packing Group for Hazard Class 3 materials is determined by the material s flashpoint or boiling point, as shown below. The DOT requires the offeror (in most cases that would be the shipper) to determine the hazard class of a hazardous material before the material is offered for transportation (see 49 CFR 171.1(b)(1)). When a material meets the definition of more than one hazard class or division as defined in 49 CFR part 173, the material must be classed according to the highest applicable hazard class. Hazard Classes 3 and 8 and Divisions 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 5.1 and 6.1 are ranked in the precedence of hazard table shown in 49 CFR 173.2a(b). The table shows the primary Hazard Class of materials that meet the definitions of both Hazard Class 3 and Hazard Class 8, or Divisions 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 5.1 and 6.1. As shown in the excerpt from the table, below, materials that may be defined as Hazard Class 3, Packing Groups I and II as well as Hazard Class 8 or Division 6.1, are generally classed as Hazard Class 3. Subject 3, Page 24 of National Motor Freight Traffic Association, Inc.

According to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics 2012 Commodity Flow Survey of Hazardous Materials 1, Hazard Class 3 materials comprise 85.

25 According to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics 2012 Commodity Flow Survey of Hazardous Materials 1, Hazard Class 3 materials comprise 85.4% of the total tonnage of all hazardous materials moving throughout the United States, by all modes. Materials in Hazard Class 3 include industrial chemicals as well as commonplace consumer products, such as adhesives, paint and paint-related products, ink, household cleaners, perfumes, cosmetics and flavoring compounds, to name a few. The CCSB has identified multiple NMFC item numbers as applying on commodities regulated as Hazard Class 3 materials. The majority of those shown in the present provisions herein apply on a specific Hazard Class 3 material. A number of the NMFC items are generic catch all items that provide for groupings of materials, some of which are regulated as a Hazard Class 3, and some that are not regulated. These items include: 43940, Chemicals, NOI; 59420, Toilet Preparations, NOI; , Ink and Related Materials; , Paint and Related Materials; and , Petroleum Oils, Greases and Related Products. Seven of the NMFC items provide listings for specific types of products formulated from a range of chemicals, some of which may be regulated as Hazard Class 3 materials, and some that are not regulated. These entries include items: 33880, Cement, Concrete or Masonry Waterproofing Compound, liquid or paste; 50475, Compounds or Solutions, windshield washer cleaning or antifreeze; and 59070, Perfume or Perfumery. The subgrouping for Alcohols, other than alcoholic liquors and other than toxic, under the Chemicals Group, contains five NMFC items. Three of those items, 42680, and 42720, provide for Hazard Class 3 materials. The other two, item 42670, Alcohols, NOI, including Anhydrous Alcohol, not denatured, and item 42690, which lists 15 specific alcohols and alcohol-based products, and two general, NOI listings, provide for regulated and unregulated materials. In addition to the listings for Hazard Class 3 materials and unregulated materials, item contains a listing for spirit duplication machine fluid. Similar to the mimeograph machine, spirit duplicating machines were printing machines invented in the 1920s to make cheap, fast copies of an original document 2. The duplicating fluid contained 1 Bureau of Transportation Statistics 2012 Commodity Flow Survey of Hazardous Materials: (accessed July 2018) 2 See (accessed July 19, 2018) 2019 National Motor Freight Traffic Association, Inc.

26 isopropanol and methanol. The printers and, consequently, the fluid, fell into disuse with the advent of cheap, high-quality desktop printers in the 1980s 3. When Hazard Class 3 materials and the obsolete listing for spirit duplication machine fluid are removed from the provisions of item and 42690, maintaining the two separate provisions for similar types of alcohols and alcohol-related materials becomes unnecessary. Transportation Characteristics Density The information of record on materials in Hazard Class 3 includes 15,490 density observations submitted by carriers, observed firsthand on CCSB dock surveys and obtained from the CCSB s Density Study 4. The densities range from 0.17 to pcf, with an overall average density of pcf. Items and provide for alcohols or alcohol-related materials. When Hazard Class 3 materials are not included in the density data of record, and the remaining materials are combined and grouped according to the current distinctions based on packaging, the density ranges and averages shown below emerge. Packaging Density Range (pcf) Density Average (pcf) In carboys In inner containers in boxes, or in pails In drums Handling Due to the hazardous nature of these materials, extra care and attention is necessary. Training carrier employees in handling hazardous materials and then supervising them to ensure compliance with DOT regulations takes additional time, more paperwork and extra personnel than that required when transporting nonhazardous freight. Personnel who must be trained in the intricacies of handling hazardous materials include: dispatchers, drivers (pickup, line-haul and delivery), driver supervisors, billing clerks, billing supervisors, terminal managers, freight handlers, dock foremen, maintenance personnel, safety and claims personnel, and even sales personnel. 3 See (accessed July 19, 2018) 4 The Density Study is part of an ongoing effort by the CCSB to collect information on actual shipments; it is not tied to any particular research project, nor does it target any particular product category. Carriers that choose to participate in the study periodically submit shipment data captured through their respective freight auditing programs. The data is identified by NMFC item, and only verifiable data points, which include the weight and the dimensions and/or cube of the shipping unit involved, are used. Subject 3, Page 26 of National Motor Freight Traffic Association, Inc.

27 The carrier s driver must check the accuracy of the information provided on the bill of lading and confirm that the shipper s compliance certification statement is included. Further, the driver must accurately count the number of pieces tendered, verify the inclusion of an emergency contact telephone number and verify the application of the proper hazard labels 5. It is also imperative that the driver be aware of the type of freight already in the vehicle to ensure the carrier complies with coloading prohibitions and segregation requirements. The driver must also be aware of the threshold quantities of hazardous materials that will trigger the need to display the appropriate warning placards on the vehicle. If placards are required, the driver must ensure that they are properly displayed on the vehicle (visible from the front, rear and both sides). The driver must also place the shipping documents for all hazardous materials on top of all documents for nonhazardous freight, or distinctively tab each hazardous materials shipping paper, and the hazardous materials documents must be kept within the driver s reach at all times. Considering the thousands of hazardous materials handled daily by for-hire carriers and the inescapable fact that leaks, spills, fires and accidents occur, emergency response information must be included in a shipping paper or with a shipping paper, in a manner that cross-references the description of the hazardous material on the shipping paper with the emergency response information contained in a separate document (see 49 CFR part 172, subpart G). In addition to these regulatory requirements, virtually every carrier has its own rules that detail the actions to be taken by drivers in the event of problems involving hazardous materials. Carrier billing personnel must be trained to recognize hazardous materials shipments and to accurately transfer all information on these materials from the bill of lading to the freight bill (a copy of which is used to move the freight through the carrier s system to its destination). Additionally, many carriers require that freight bills pertaining to hazardous materials be flagged as a means to ensure that freight handlers and drivers are aware of the dangers presented by the material. Terminal managers, dock foremen and freight handlers must all be trained to be familiar with the care and attention required in the handling of hazardous materials, including the coloading prohibitions and segregation of freight bearing different DOT-required hazard designation labels. Further, complying with the involved handling regulations requires at least one dedicated space on carrier docks for hazardous materials. Most general freight does not require a separate space on the carriers docks.

When hazardous materials are involved in a transportation incident, often a report may be required. Reporting requirements are the responsibility of the carrier. For certain incidents, the carrier must notify the National Response Center (NRC) as soon as practical but not later than 12 hours after the incident occurs. For any such incident, the carrier must also follow up with a written Hazardous Materials Incident Report, DOT Form F within 30 days. A written Hazardous Materials Incident Report, DOT Form F must also be submitted within 30 days of discovering any unintentional release of hazardous materials or unintentional discharge of hazardous waste, as well as under certain other conditions (see 49 CFR ). According to the DOT s Office of Hazardous Materials Safety s Incident Reports Database, from January 1, 2015 through January 28, 2018 there were 20,745 incidents involving Hazard Class 3 materials transported by highway, other than by cargo tank. The cost of damages for 2,415 of those incidents totaled $36,285,884, averaging approximately $15,025 per incident. 6 Flammable liquids are not subject to coloading prohibitions or segregation requirements with Hazard Classes or Divisions that are not shown.
