Mr. Paul B. Hartman                           Ref. No. 98-0137
East Coast Regulatory Compliance/
Safety Manager Stericycle

Dear Mr. Hartman:

This is in response to your letter of June 15, 1998, regarding general marking requirements for non-bulk packages under the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180). Editorial revisions under HM-206 were published in the Federal Register on April 1, 1998, (63 FR 16070). Specifically you ask what the meaning of "other material, hazardous or otherwise" is, as stated in s 172.301 (a) (3) (iv) .

The intention behind the term "other material, hazardous or otherwise" is that it. is any other material transported as a commodity in commerce.

I hope this answers your questions. If we can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Sincerely,

 

EDWARD T. MAZZULLO
Director, Office of Hazardous
Materials Standards
