Handling hazardous materials can be a humungous task indeed – one that levies immense responsibility on the

shoulders of the handler to ensure the safety of all parties involved. Transportation Compliance Associates, Inc. is a

company that offers state of the art solutions as well as trainings for hazardous material compliance to help managers

from all kinds of industries in mitigating any risks associated with the handling and transportation of these volatile

substances.

"In instances where a tank truck, rail car, or similar vehicle that is comprised of containers with hazardous chemicals,

labeling information is to be placed either on the outside of the car or attached to shipping papers. Labels are required

to be shipped with the vehicle, and no separate labels are allowed. The goal is to provide an immediate hazard

warning. When labels are shipped directly to employees who are transporting the hazardous chemicals, this defeats

the purpose. (There are exemptions such as solid metals, plastics, shipments of whole grain, and even whole wood.)

Any tanker truck labeled in accordance with the DOT labeling requirements and is unloaded into a storage tank, the

DOT labeling will be sufficient for the storage tanker truck and or railroad tank car before offloading." said Karen

Alston, President of Transportation Compliance Associates, Inc. and owner of the website LearnHazmat.com.
