No. 02-0145 Hazmat Environmental Group, Inc. New Village Industrial Park 50 Commerce Drive Buffalo, New York 14218-1040 Dear Ms. Orth: This responds to your March 8, 2002 letters requesting clarification on § 172.203 (a) under the Hazardous Materials Regulations (FMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180). Specifically, you ask if a generic shipping description with a subsidiary hazard of Class 8 or Division 4.2 is required to have the exemption number, e.g., DOT-E 11153, written in association with the basic description. In addition, you ask if the exemption number, e.g., DOT-E 9723 and DOT-E 10441, is required to be written in association with the basic shipping description. These three exemptions provide no relief from the HMR other than as specifically stated in the exemption. Therefore, the exemption number is required to be written on the shipping paper in association with the basic shipping description in accordance with § 172.203(a). I hope this answers your inquiry. Sincerely, Subm Ballo Delmer F. Billings Chief, Standards Development Office of Hazardous Materials Standards 172.303 020145#
