Reference No. 15-0085
Dear Mr. Payne:
This is in response to your May 1, 2015 e-mail request and subsequent telephone
conversation with a member of my staff regarding requirements under the Hazardous
Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180) applicable to hazardous substances.
You state that you received a violation for not indicating the letters RQ on the shipping
paper for a shipment of UN 1760, Corrosive liquid, n.o.s (Phosphoric Acid, Hydrofluoric
Acid) 8, PG II, 2 Drums, 1096 LBS. You ask if there is an HMR requirement for the
shipper to include the weight or concentration range of each hazardous component of a
mixture on shipping papers.
The answer to your question is no. There is no requirement for a shipper to indicate weights
or concentration ranges for hazardous components of a mixture or solution. Section
172.203(c) prescribes the documentation requirements for materials that are hazardous
substances. Based on the information provided, since the weight of the hydrofluoric acid in
the mixture is below the 100 pound limit indicated in Appendix A to § 172.101, the letters
"RQ" on the shipping paper would not be required for this hazardous material.
I trust this information is helpful. If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to
contact this office.
Sincerely,
- 1

RE: Request for Interpretation regarding determining a Hazardous Substance RQ Listing on the bill of
lading, Regulation 172.203 (c) (2).
To Whom it May Concern:
Transport America is requesting guidance in determining if a shipper needs to include on the bills the formula for a
finished good to determine if the mixture is required to include an RQ on the bill of lading.
We received a violation from the DOT For: RQ NOT ON SHIPPING PAPER (FMCSR 172.203 (c) (2) - UN1760 Corrosive
liquid, n.o.s (Phosphoric Acid, Hydrofluoric Acid) 8, PGlI, 2 Drums, 1096 LBS. (548 Ibs. per drum)
According to the Hazardous Substance table Phosphoric Acid would need a RQ if it is 5,000 Ibs. or more per container
and Hydrofluoric Acid if it is 100 Ibs. or more per container.
Is there a HMR that states shippers have to include the weight of each Hazardous Substance in a mixture per container?
Or is the officer incorrect when it comes to interpreting the HMR for RQ?
included in the recipe for a Finished good? Is this correct?
According to the shipper, Chemetall, they are not required to include the total weight, of each hazardous Raw Material

<<<PAGE 3>>>

Transport America Data Qu with the state DOT and included interpretation letter 12-0181 Q3 A3: . Please see the
attached document RQ.pdf.
The DOT came back with regulation 177.817 (a) General requirements. A person may not accept a hazardous material for
transportation or transport a hazardous material by highway unless that person has received a shipping paper prepared in
accordance with part 172 of this subchapter or the material is excepted from shipping paper requirements under this
subchapter. A subsequent carrier may not transport a hazardous material unless it is accompanied by a shipping paper
prepared in accordance with part 172 of this subchapter, except for $172.204, which is not required.
After this Data Qu was denied by the state we received the formula from the shipper: According to them there is only 10
Ibs. 1.8% of Hydrofluoric Acid in the mixture. Please see the attached E-mail which includes the MSDS.
Also included the actual Bill of Lading.
How do we find a resolution to this violation so it doesn't happen in this particular state again?
Thank you,
Greg Payne

Mr. Raymond Kasey
Railroad Regulatory Safety Services
7500 Masonville Drive
Falls Church, VA 22042-3520
Ref. No.: 12-0181
Dear Mr. Kasey:
This responds to your August 1, 2012 letter requesting clarification of the Hazardous
Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180) applicable to the proper
classification of a marine pollutant, in addition to carrier verification requirements.
In your letter, you state that your client, a class one and three railroad carrier, recently
accepted a shipping paper for a bulk package identified as "p-Dodecylphenol" with no
other description listed on the shipping paper. As an attachment, you provide a material
safety data sheet (MSDS) for a product called "Lubrizol 9222R" which lists its hazardous
ingredient as "p-Dodecylphenol, CAS No. 74499-35-7, Percentage (by wt.) from 1 to 4.9
percent." You further indicate that Dodecylphenol is listed in Appendix B to § 172.101
with a "PP" identifying the material as a severe marine pollutant. Your questions are
paraphrased and answered below.
Q1: You ask whether "Lubrizol 9222R," according to the attached MSDS, meets the
definition of a (severe) marine pollutant? Additionally, you ask if a material is
considered a listed marine pollutant if the technical name of the material does not
synonym does?
specifically appear in the table of marine pollutants (§ 172.101, Appendix B) but a
A1: In accordance with § 173.22, it is the shipper's responsibility to properly classify and
describe a hazardous material. This Office does not perform that function. Under the
HMR, a material is considered a listed marine pollutant if either its technical name or
a synonym appears in the table of marine pollutants. Furthermore, if the listed
marine pollutant is in a mixture or solution, the shipper should consult the definition
of a marine pollutant in § 171.8. In order to be considered a marine pollutant, the
listed substance must be in a concentration of ten percent by weight, or if a severe
marine pollutant, be in a concentration of one percent by weight.

<<<PAGE 23>>>

Therefore, if: (1) p-Dodecylphenol is a synonym to Dodecylphenol; and (2) the
concentration of Dodecylphenol in the solution is at least one percent by weight, then
the answer would be yes and "Lubrizol 9222R" would appear to be a marine
pollutant. However, as stated above, it is the shipper's responsibility to properly
classify and describe a hazardous material.
Q2: You ask what is the required shipping name when a product shipped under a trade
name is offered for transportation and contains the chemical p-Dodecylphenol in a
bulk package at or above the concentration specified in Appendix B of the Hazardous
Materials Table (HMT)?
A2: Please note that marine pollutants listed in Appendix B are not necessarily listed by
name in the § 172.101 HMT. If a marine pollutant not listed by name or by synonym
in the § 172.101 HMT meets the definition of any hazard Class 1 through 8, you must
determine the class and division of the material in accordance with § 173.2a of the
HMR. Furthermore, you must also select the most appropriate hazardous material
description and proper shipping name.
If a marine pollutant not listed by name or by synonym in the § 172.101 HMT does
not meet the definition of any Class 1 through 8, you must offer it for transportation
under the most appropriate of the following two Class 9 entries: "Environmentally
hazardous substances, liquid, n.o.s.," UN3082, or "Environmentally hazardous
substances, solid, n.o.s." UN3077. In this specific case, it would appear that the
former (along with a technical name) is the appropriate proper shipping name.
Q3: You ask whether a carrier may rely on information provided by the manufacturer (or
previous offeror) and in good faith rely on that information when transporting those
hazardous materials?
A3: The answer is yes. Although the HMR place primary responsibility on the shipper,
or "person who offers," to properly class and communicate the hazard of a hazardous
material, a carrier may be held responsible for non-compliance with applicable
requirements to the extent that the carrier knows, or should have known, that a
material offered for transportation is hazardous. A carrier may rely on information
provided by the shipper, unless the carrier knows, or a reasonable person, acting in
the circumstances and exercising reasonable care, would have knowledge that the
information provided is incorrect.
I trust this satisfies your inquiry. Please contact us if we can be of further assistance.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Betts:
I represent a class one and three railroad and need clarification concerning the obligations of
carriers when presented with a shipping paper listing a chemical that is not readily identifiable in
the hazardous materials table. Recently, carriers accepted a shipping paper for a bulk package
identified as p-dodecylphenol. There was no other description listed on the shipping paper
offered or accompanying the shipment. Neither "p" nor plain dodecylphenol is listed in the Haz
Mat Table in 49 CFR 172.101.
I have several questions as follows.
While it is incumbent on the shipper to know what the constituents are of the product being
shipped, would the requirement of 49 CFR 172.101(c)(14) apply to an "m" (meta), "o" (ortho),
or "p" (para), preceding the chemical name exclude it from being a marine pollutant (MP) or
further include it as well if not listed in the Appendix B along with the MP chem cal?
My second question is,
"when an offeror provides a carrier with a shipping descr. ption that is not
readily identifiable as a regulated hazardous material, what obligation, if any, does a carrier have
other than transport the bulk package from origin to destination?"
When I read further, however, I now find that according to Appendix B of the HMT,
dodecylphenol is listed as a severe marine pollutant in certain concentrations, though I reiterate
again that it is not listed in the HMT.
My third question is, "In the absence of an additional description on the shipping paper, which
list the concentration of p-dodecylphenol, can I, as a carrier reasonably assume that the bulk
received from the offeror?"
package does not contain a marine pollutant and transport it in accordance with the description I
My fourth question is, "When a product shipped under a trade name is offered for transportation
and contains the chemical p-dodecylphenol in a bulk package at or above the concentration

<<<PAGE 25>>>

specified in Appendix B of the Hazardous Materials Table, what is the required proper shipping
name if any?"
I have enclosed the MSDS for this product for your edification of the specific product to which I
am referring. As you can see, the shipper offered an MSDS that indicates p-dodecylphenol as
being between 1 to 4.9% by weight of the product. You will also note in your reading that block
14 lists the product as non-regulated in all countries.
My fifth question concerns a carriers' good faith determination in assessing whether a product
offered by a shipper can always be accepted in good faith, just as offered, or does acceptance of
any material incur other obligations not listed in the HMR?
Your assistance in this matter is appreciated.
Sincerely,
Caperley
