Dear Mr. Moran:
This is in response to your letter dated April 29, 1999.
Specifically, you ask how § 172.201 (c) of the Hazardous
Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180) relates to the
International Civil Air Organization's Technical Instructions
For
The Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods By Air (ICAO Technical
Instructions).
Section 172.201 (c) requires shipping papers that consist of more
than one page to be consecutively numbered, and the first page
must bear a notation of the total number of pages. Section
171.11 of the HMR
authorizes the use of the ICAO Technical
Instructions in lieu of the HMR for packaging, marking, labeling,
classifying, and describing and certifying on a shipping paper
hazardous materials which
are transported by air.
The ICAO Technical Instructions do not contain a requirement for
Commercial enterprises that wish to impose additional
notations on shipping papers that consist of more than one page.
• requirements for transporting hazardous materials,
such as
numbering requirements on shipping papers being shipped under the
provisions of the ICAO Technical Instructions are not precluded
from doing so.
The International Air Transportation Association
Dangerous Goods Regulations (IATA) are intended for industry
guidance among association members and are not official
regulations.
I hope this information is helpful. If you have further
questions, please do not hesitate to contact this office.
Sincerely,
Delmer F. Billings
