Mr. Gary Chilcott                Reference No 03-0297
Sure-Way Systems, Inc.
P.O. Box 899
Deer Lodge, MT 59722

Dear Mr. Chilcott:

This responds to your letter requesting clarification on the segregation requirements under the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180).  Specifically, you inquire whether regulated medical waste, Division 6.2, may be transported with other materials in the same motor vehicle.

Under the HMR, there are no segregation or separation restrictions for the highway transport of regulated medical waste, Division 6.2, that has been properly packaged.

I trust this satisfies your inquiry.  Please contact us if we can be of further assistance.

Sincerely,

 

Hattie L. Mitchell
Chief, Regulatory Review and Reinvention
Office of Hazardous Materials Standard
