The most up-to-date hazardous materials regulations, covering the latest hazmat issues, are combined with extras in MANCOMM's DOT/PHMSA Hazardous Materials Regulations, October 2010 Edition. This compliance product is available in both book and CD formats.

These regulations appear in the new edition:

  • Hazardous Materials Regulations-49 CFR 100-185 from Department of Transportation, Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration.

  • 49 CFR A Hazardous Materials and Oil Transportation

  • 49 CFR B Oil Transportation

  • 49 CFR C Hazardous Materials Regulations

Industry issues covered in the updated book include:

  • Fees are increasing for the statutorily mandated registration and fee assessment program for persons who transport, or offer for transportation, certain categories and quantities of hazardous materials.

  • Hazmat regulations are being modified to incorporate provisions used in certain widely used or longstanding special permits. Special permits allow for hazardous materials to be transported in a manner that varies from the regulations, so long as it maintains an equivalent level of safety.

  • The clarity of some regulations will be enhanced through minor editorial corrections and regulatory changes. The meanings of these regulations will stay the same, and it will be easier to interpret their meanings.

Any regulation changes published in the Federal Register but not yet in effect are included in Federal Register Update areas at the end of each section.
