International Standards on the Transport of Dangerous Goods: Request for Comments

Request for comments.

RSPA invites comments on certain environmental substances issues that will be considered by the United Nations Committee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (UN Committee of Experts) at a subcommittee meeting to be held in July 1999. These issues concern the development of requirements for substances that are dangerous to the environment and the criteria that will be used to define such substances, including RSPA's recommendation of criteria for substances transported in bulk quantities. The purpose of this notice is to afford the public an opportunity to submit comments on these important issues.
