Dear Mr. Elkind:
This responds to your November 14, 2008 letter requesting clarification on training requirements under §172.704(d) in the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180). Specifically, you ask if the name and address of the person performing the training may be the company or corporate name and address, based on the definition of "person" in §171.8 of the HMR.
The answer is yes. It is the opinion of this office that the term "person" under §171.8 applies to the requirement in §172.704(d)(4). Therefore, the individual name and address of the person providing training or the name and address of the company or corporation providing the training may be used to satisfy the requirement in §172.704(d)(4).
I hope this answers your inquiry.
Sincerely,
Charles E. Betts
Chief, Standards Development
Office of Hazardous Materials Standards
