1 NORTH PARK TRANSPORTATION HAZARDOUS MATERIALS GUIDE Revision 8/201

2 Introduction Present Hazardous Materials Regulations are the result of the Transportation Safety Act of 1974, the Hazardous Materials Regulations Consolidation of 1976, the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act of 1990, OSHA HazCom 2012 and a number of amendments issued. Carriers are subject to both the Hazardous Materials Regulations, the Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, (49CFR parts and , and OSHA Hazard Communications standard (HCS) 29 CFR ). All HAZMAT employees are responsible to follow the procedures in these regulations. The regulations are designed to protect the safety of all concerned. A HAZMAT employer is to ensure each HAZMAT employee is trained in the regulations. (HM126F, HM181, HM232, 49 CFR and 29 CFR ) HAZMAT Employee means a person who is employed by a HAZMAT employer and who in the course of employment directly affects hazardous materials transportation safety. Please become familiar with this Hazardous Materials Guide. After review, please complete the appropriate accompanying test, (Driver/Dock or Office/Clerical), sign the Training Certification and return the test and certification to your supervisor for review. If you would like a Hazardous Materials Guide for review, please request from the Quality Control Manager or your Terminal Manager. 1 revised August 2014

4 HOW TO INDENTIFY HAZARDOUS MATERIALS A. HM shipments are recognized by: -Entries on the shipping papers -Labels -Markings on the packages -Placards B. Other ways to recognize a HM shipment: 1. Know your shippers!! Some shippers ship Hazardous Materials every day. (Be on the lookout for hospitals, chemical companies and paint companies). 2. Drums and pails are the usually a good indication of Hazardous Materials, (Check all packages for Hazardous Materials label). 3. Each pick up driver can help communicate to fellow workers by marking a HM (Hazardous Materials) on the bills that contain Hazardous Materials. 4. If special handling is required, contact the Dispatcher and the Supervisor in charge. 3

5 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS CLASSES Class 1 * 1.1 * 1.2 * Class Class 3 3 Class (Explosives) (Gases) (Flammable liquids) (Flammable solids) Class 5 (Oxidizing substances) * Note on 5.2 Class (Poisons) Class 7 (Radioactive Materials) * Note on PG III Class 8 Class 9 (Corrosive Materials) (Miscellaneous - HM) * Note: NPT does not handle special permit materials, they are: - Explosives Explosives Explosives Organic Peroxide, 5.2 type B, Liquid or solid, temperature controlled. - Radioactive 7 PG III 4

6 PROPER SHIPPING NAME Every Hazardous material has a proper shipping name. Proper shipping names are listed alphabetically on the Hazardous Materials Table. (49 CFR Section ) All descriptions of Hazardous materials on shipping papers must be listed exactly as shown on the Hazardous Materials Table. Note: Proper shipping names identified by the letter G in the column (1) of the Hazardous Materials Table must include technical names in parentheses. Most n.o.s., (not otherwise specified), and generic proper shipping names must have the technical name. Put the technical name in parentheses immediately following the proper shipping name. IDENTIFICATION NUMBER The identification number must include the letters UN or NA as appropriate followed by four numbers. The identification numbers cross reference to the proper shipping name of every Hazardous Material. The identification number must be on the Hazardous material(s) packages, shipping papers, and placards of bulk containers. Notes: The Hazardous Materials Table and the ID Number Cross Reference are both found in the Hazardous Materials Compliance Pocketbook and the Handling Hazardous Materials book, that is issued to all drivers and available to all other NPT employees. 5

8 PROPER SHIPPING PAPER REQUIREMENTS The shipper is responsible for providing the proper paperwork or bills of lading. All shipping papers or bills of lading MUST contain the following information: 1. Consignee s name and address. 2. Shipper s name and address. 3. Number of packages. (Mandatory 1 st Oct. 2007) 4. Type of package. (Package types may be abbreviated) (Mandatory 1 st Oct. 2007) 5. Hazardous Materials must be shown in one of the following ways; Must be entered first on the shipping papers, or Must be shown in a contrasting color, and Must be identified by an X or RQ in the column designated HM. 6. Proper Hazard identification number. (4 digit number preceded by UN or NA) The identification number must be the first in the basic description. 7. Proper shipping name. (No abbreviations) 8. Proper Hazard class. 9. Packaging group (if required) will be shown as a roman numeral(s) in column 5, Table The packaging group may be preceded by the letters PG (e.g., PG I, PG II, or PG III ). Note: ID number + Proper shipping name + hazardous class + PG = the basic description of the item. 10. Total quantity by weight or volume (weight and volume measurements may be abbreviated) hours emergency response telephone number 12. Shipper s certification this statement indicates that the shipper certified that the shipment is properly classed, marked, labeled and in the proper condition for transport. 7

9 Proper Shipping paper Requirements Page 2 SPECIAL NOTES 1. When a material is poison (division 6.1, packaging group I or II) and the fact that it is a poison is not evident in the shipping name or class entry, the word Poison or Toxic must be entered in association with the shipping description. 2. Materials which are poisonous by inhalation should be marked with the words POISON INHALATION HAZARD or TOXIC INHALATION HAZARD and the words ZONE A, ZONE B, ZONE C, or ZONE D for gases, or ZONE A or ZONE B for liquids should be entered on the shipping papers immediately following the shipping description. Freight must also be marked Inhalation Hazard and labeled Poison. 3. Hazardous Substances are not exactly the same as Hazardous Materials, but not all Hazardous Materials are Hazardous Substances. A Hazardous Substance is an item that if released can pollute the environment and an item that a carrier would have liability for a release. Hazardous Substances must have a RQ before or after the basic description or RQ in the column marked HM on the shipping papers. 8

10 July 30, 2010 Subject: Hazardous Materials Function Specific Training - Bulk Container Special Permits Some Bulk Containers (portable tanks) that we transport have a DOT Special Permit required to contain some contents. Hazardous Materials Regulations (a) (2) (i) requires function specific training for special permits applicable to the function the employee performs. A Special Provision of those permits affects carriers: MODAL REQUIREMENTS : A current copy of this special permit must be carried aboard each cargo vessel or motor vehicle used to transport packages covered by this special permit. A. Pick up Drivers must: 1) Check bills of ladings for bulk container shipments to see if a DOT Special Permit is being used. The shipping papers must display DOT SP XXXXX (permit number). 2) If there is a special permit number on the bill of lading the driver must check the portable tank to see that it is plainly and durably marked DOT SP XXXXX (permit number). 3) And receive a copy of the special permit to travel with the portable tank. This copy must be securely attached to the portable tank or to the hazardous materials shipping papers carried by all drivers until delivery. B. Billers must: 1) Make sure the special permit number (DOT SP XXXXX) is transferred to all shipping papers including the delivery receipt. 2) And if the copy of the special permit is not attached to the portable tank that it is attached to the shipping papers for the driver to carry with the shipment. C. Special permit shipments received from other carriers will require that we receive a copy of the special permit from the advanced carrier. Also we must forward a copy of special permits to beyond carriers. 9

20 NORTH PARK TRANSPORTATION CO. HAZARD COMMUNICATION TRAINING HAZ COM 2012 The OSHA Hazard Communications Standard (HCS) 29 CFR is now aligned with the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS). Labels Every Hazardous Chemical container must be labeled. Labels must contain 6 things. 1) Product Identifier (chemical name or product name used on the SDS). 2) Signal Word (severity of hazards) Danger for more sever and Warning for less severe). 3) Hazard Statement (phases that describe the nature and degree of hazard(s)). 4) Pictograms (symbols black on white back ground with red border to convey hazard(s). 5) Precautionary Statement (phrases to recommend way to mitigate adverse affects from exposure or mishandling or storage). 6) Supplier Identification (name, address, and telephone number of manufacturer, importer, or supplier). : See OSHA Quick Cards on Standard Labels and Pictograms. SAFETY DATA SHEETS (SDS) Chemical Manufactures and Importers shall have a Safety Data Sheet for each of their Hazardous Chemicals. Distributors shall ensure employers are provided an SDS and any updates to an SDS. Employers are to have an SDS in the work place for each Hazardous Chemical that they use. 19

21 Safety Data Sheets are to be readily available to employees in their workplace. Safety Data Sheets must have 16 required sections numbered with a heading and in a specific order. OTHER INFORMATION The presence or release of a Hazardous Chemical can often be detected by spills, odors, visual appearance etc. NPT diesel and gasoline tanks have monitoring devices. The types of Hazards (1) Physical, (2) Health, (3) Simple asphyxiation (replaces oxygen), (4) Combustible dust, (5) Pyrophorics gas (spontaneous ignition in air), and (6) Other hazard areas, on Labels and Safety Data Sheets are to be shown on the Hazardous Chemicals List by work area. Labels and Safety Data Sheets show what hazard(s) a chemical has. They also show what you should do to avoid harm and how to protect yourself. A List of Hazardous Chemicals Safety Data Sheets, and the Written Hazard Communication Programs is available at each NPT workplace and or at the Denver Office. 20

22 North Park Transportation Co. Written Hazard Communication Program Employees are to be informed and trained about Hazardous Chemicals present or used in their work areas. North Park Transportation Co. (NPT) will train employees when initially hired and when transferred to a work area that has Hazardous Chemicals. The training will include the requirements: To LABEL containers used to store Hazardous Chemicals, For SAFETY DATA SHEETS (SDS), For the availability of SDS s, and For the proper use of Hazardous Chemicals. NPT will also maintain at each workplace: LISTS OF HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS, SAFETY DATA SHEETS, the LABELING OF HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS. 21

23 SEGREGATION AND SEPERATION OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 1) Segregation of Hazardous Materials a. This section applies to materials which meet one or more of the hazard classes defined in this subchapter and are; 1). In packages which require labels in accordance with part 172 of the sub-chapter; or 2). In a compartment within a multi-compartmented cargo tank subject to the restrictions in of this subchapter; or 3). In a portable tank loaded in a transport vehicle or freight container. b. When a transport vehicle is to be transported by vessel, other than a ferry vessel, Hazardous Materials on or within that vehicle must be stowed and segregated in accordance with (b) of the subchapter. c. In addition to the provisions of paragraph (d) of this section, cyanides or cyanide mixtures may not be loaded or stored with acids. d. Hazardous materials may not be loaded, transported, or sorted together, except as provided in this section, and in accordance with the Segregation Table for Hazardous Materials. 22

(X) These materials may NOT be loaded, transported, or stored together in the same transport vehicle or storage facility during the course of transportation. (O) These materials may not be loaded, transported, or stored together in the same transport vehicle or storage facility during the course of transportation unless separated in a manner that, in the event of leakage from packages under conditions normally incident to transportation, commingling of hazardous materials would not occur. Notwithstanding the methods of separation employed, Class 8 (corrosive) liquids may not be loaded above or adjacent to Class 4 (flammable) or Class 5 (oxidizing) materials; except that shippers may load truckload shipments of such materials together when it is known that the mixture of contents would not cause a fire or a dangerous evolution of heat or gas. (*) Segregation among different Class 1 (explosive) materials is governed by the compatibility table. (A) Notwithstanding the requirements of the letter "X", ammonium nitrate (UN 1942) and ammonium nitrate fertilizer may be loaded or stored with Division 1.1 (Class A explosive) or Division 1.5 (blasting agents) materials. When the table or of this subchapter requires a package to bear a subsidiary hazard label, segregation appropriate to the subsidiary hazard must be applied when that segregation is more restrictive than that required by the primary hazard. However, hazardous materials of the same class may bestowed together without regard to segregation required for any secondary hazard if the materials are not capable of reacting dangerously with each other and causing combustion or dangerous evolution of heat, evolution of flammable, poisonous, or asphyxiant gases, or formation of corrosive or unstable materials. 23
