Dear Mr. Collins:
This is in response to your letter dated September 11, 1998, regarding labeling requirements for materials classified as Consumer Commodity, ORM-D under the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR parts 171-180). Specifically you ask whether a flammable aerosol which is properly re-named Consumer commodity and re-classed ORM-D is subject to the Division 2.1 (Flammable Gas) labeling requirement, or any other labeling requirement.
The answer is no. A material properly re-named consumer commodity and re-classed ORM-D is not subject to the labeling requirements of Part 172, Subpart E. The Hazardous Materials Table (§ 172.101) indicates None for the label code in column (6) for the proper shipping name Consumer commodity. Therefore, a material properly re-named Consumer commodity has no labeling requirements under the HMR.
I hope this satisfies your request.
Sincerely,
John A. Gale
