Langley, BC VIM 2Y8 Dear Mr. Swinden: Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180). Specifically, you ask whether the This is in response to your April 6, 2006, letter requesting clarification of the Hazardous training requirements of Part 172, Subpart H apply to Canadian carriers transporting hazardous materials originating in the United States, within the United States or from the United States to Canada. The answer is yes.

Suite 423- #505,8840-210*h street April 6, 2006 Langley BC VIM 2Y8 5/77, Iraining 06-0089 PHMSA/U.S. DOT, I am requesting an interpretation on the following subject. If a Canadian carrier goes down into the U.S., whether they are carrying Dangerous Code tart ornat, lancy pick up a hama from a is ship is to this reguire training under 49CFR? No where can I find in the 49CFR where it clearly defines this. 171.12(a) is for carriers going into or through and returning with empty bulk containers, but it does not state that a Canadian carrier must be trained under 40CFR. They are conducting the same service as a U.S. carrier. Could you clarify this! Sincerely, pinn nail / Kevin J. Swinden President 1-877-744-4999 - **truncated:** false - **body characters:** 1975
