Mr. Richard Sher Reference No.02-0237
Facility & Safety Supervisor
Remel Inc. Ramsey Division
I 4000 Unity Street NW
Ramsey, MN 55303
Dear Mr. Sher
This is in response to your September l3, 2002, letter concerning the training requirements for carriers and drivers transporting hazardous materials shipped under the small quantity exception in § 173.4 of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (MR; 49 CFR Parts l7l-180).
Materials which meet the requirements of § 173.4 are not subject to any other requirements of the HMR. Therefore, persons who ship hazardous materials under the provisions of § 173A are not subject to the formal training requirements of Subpart H in Part 172 and Part 177. A person who offers small quantity shipments is responsible for properly classifying the material, determining that the material may be shipped as a small quantity and otherwise ensuring compliance with the provisions of § 173.4.
I hope this information is helpful. Please contact us if you require additional assistance.
Sincerely,
Delmer F. Billings
Chief, Standards Development
