Effective cargo security in the food processing
industry requires keeping track of all your outbound
shipments from the shipping dock to the receiving
dock. A visual inspection of your tractor-trailers
and tankers (empty and loaded) should confirm the
following: |
|
|
- Are all major points of entry and discharge
sealed?
- Are seals numbered and recorded on the wash
ticket/bill of lading?
- Do seal numbers correspond to the numbers on
the wash ticket/bill of lading?
- Are seals intact with no evidence of
tampering?

Hazardous Materials Transportation
|
| |
|
Hazardous materials are defined by the Secretary of
Transportation as those materials and substances that are capable of
posing an unreasonable risk to health, safety and property when
transported in commerce.
Hazardous materials are an integral part of daily
life:
-
gasoline to power our vehicles,
-
fertilizers and pesticides to maintain
beautiful, insect-free lawns,
-
paints and varnishes to keep our homes looking
new,
-
chlorine to maintain that beautiful blue clean
water in our backyard swimming pool.
More than three billion tons of hazardous materials
are transported annually in the United States – on airplanes,
trucks, railroads and vessels.
That means more than 800,000 hazardous materials
shipments every day – 365 days a year. Most of these materials reach
their destinations safely.  But
incidents do occur and hazardous materials are released. They can
damage property and the environment – or worse, cause injuries and
casualties.
The U.S. Department of Transportation is responsible for developing,
issuing and enforcing the Hazardous Materials Regulations.
|
| |
| Title 49, Code of Federal
Regulations |
|
|
|
 The
Hazardous Materials Regulations are in Title 49, Code of Federal
Regulations, Parts
171-180. If you are involved in the transportation of hazardous
materials, you should have a current copy of 49 CFR Parts 100
through 185.
The Hazardous Materials Regulations govern the
transportation of hazardous materials in all modes of
transportation.
They set forth standards for classification,
packaging, hazard communication, emergency response information,
training of hazmat employees, transportation and incident reporting.
The regulations also state that packaging and containers for
shipping hazardous materials must be prepared as required. It is a
serious violation to represent packages or containers as meeting
U.S. DOT requirements when they do not. |
|
|
|
Violations of the Hazardous Materials Regulations may
result in criminal penalties of $500,000 and five years in jail.
Civil penalties range up to $27,500.

Training Requirements |
|
|
Federal DOT regulations require training (and retraining) of all
employees who perform work functions covered by the Hazardous
Materials Regulation (HMR; 49 CFR 172.7000). Any employee who works in a shipping, receiving or
material handling area or who may be involved in preparing or
transporting hazardous materials is required to have this training.
This includes not only airbag modules and batteries, but also
hazardous waste such as waste paint and used parts cleaner solvent.
If you sign the documents, you are the shipper. It is the employer's
responsibility to fully comply with the training requirements.
Failure to train employees may result in civil and / or criminal
penalties of up to $27,500 per violation
- general awareness/familiarization,
- function-specific, including driver training for
hazmat employees who operate motor vehicles;
- and safety.
