Dear Ms. Werner:
This is in response to your letter of April 20, 2004, requesting a copy of an incident report submitted in accordance with § 171.16. You state in your letter that the incident occurred on February 20, 2004. The incident involved a collision between an oil carrying cargo tank motor vehicle, owned by Consumers-Energy Group, and an individual (Edwin Solis) in a personal motor vehicle.
Each carrier who transports hazardous materials is required to report in writing, in duplicate, on DOT Form 5800.1 to the Research and Special Programs Administration within 30 days of the date of discovery, each incident that occurs during the course of transportation (including loading, unloading, and temporary storage) in which any of the circumstances set forth in § 171.15(a) occurs or there has been an unintentional release of hazardous materials from a package.
We have reviewed our records, and have no indication that a DOT Form 5800.1 was submitted for the incident in question.
I hope this satisfies your request.
Sincerely,
John A. Gale
Chief, Standards Development
