Dear Dr. Pillai:

This responds to your August 8, 2011 letter seeking clarification of IBC marking requirements of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180). Specifically, you ask if § 180.352(b)(2)(i) permits the IBC owner to replace the plates containing the manufacturer"s markings.

The answer to your question is yes. Missing or damaged markings, or markings difficult to read, must be restored or returned to their original condition. This may include replicating and replacing the plates containing the manufacturer"s markings.

I hope this answers your inquiry. If you need additional assistance, please contact the Standards and Rulemaking Division at (202) 366-8553.

Sincerely,

Ben Supko

Acting Chief, Standards Development

Standards and Rulemaking Division
