Dear Mr. Secor:

This is in response to your February 8, 2001 fax inquiring whether the individual serial number of a DOT 57 portable tank must be entered on the shipping paper under the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR, Parts 171-180).

The answer is no, serial numbers of portable tanks are not required to appear on the shipping paper entry, but may appear as additional information. Additional information must be placed after the basic description as specified in § 172.201(a)(4).

I hope this satisfies your request.

Sincerely,

 

Hattie L. Mitchell
  Chief, Regulatory Review and Reinvention
