No. 05-0318\nGeneral Manager\nTrident Agricultural\nProducts, Inc.\nP.O. Box 1909\nWoodland, WA 98674\nDear Mr. Conway:\nThis responds to your letter dated December 21, 2005,\nregarding the packaging of toxic by inhalation liquids\nunder the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR\nParts 171-180). Specifically, you ask whether liquids\ndescribed as \"Toxic by inhalation liquid, corrosive,\nn.o.s., 6.1, UN3390, PG I, 8\" may be transported in an\ninsulated DOT 412 cargo tank motor vehicle.\nThe answer is yes.\nThe cargo tanks authorized for a Zone B\ninhalation hazard material (UN3390) are found in § 173.244\nof the HMR, as limited by the applicable special provisions\nof § 172.102. As prescribed in § 173.244 (b),\na DOT 412\ncargo tank is authorized for a Zone B\ninhalation hazard\nmaterial (UN3390). In accordance with Special Provision\nB14, the cargo tank must be insulated.\nI trust this satisfies your inquiry.\nPlease contact us if\nwe can be of further assistance.\nSincerely,\ntille = nitate\nHattie L.

No 62719-302).\nTelone C35's new UN number effective January 1, 2006 is UN3390. I have confirmed\nthis with the marlufacturer, Dow AgroSciences, LLC. Telone C35 is 63.4% 1,3\ndichloropropene, 34.7% chloropirin, and 1.9% inerts. Reviewing CFR 49 Hazardous\nMaterial Rules itiappears that C35 can be hauled in bulk using insulated DOT 412 cargo\ntanks that contorm to the special provisions in section 172.102 and packaging rules in\n173.227 and 244; Is this correct?\nI spoke with a hazardous materials regulatory specialist at the Hazardous Materials\nInformation Center. He said my conclusion was correct. I am looking for a written\nformal interpretation or formal guidance.\nThank you in advance for your cooperation.\nMike Conway\nGeneral Manager","truncated":false,"body_characters":2175}
