No.: 09-0099\nDear Mr. Lee:\nThis responds to your letter regarding training requirements specified in Subpart H of Part\n172 of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 17 1-1 80). Specifically,\nyou ask if the HMR specify qualifications for persons who provide such training.\nThere are no provisions under the training requirements in Subpart H of Part 172 for review\nand approval of training programs or certification of instructors. A hazmat employer must\nensure that the training provided to its hazmat employees covers the training components\nspecified in 4 172.704(a) and that the person who provides the training is knowledgeable\nabout the HMR and its application to specific operations and situations. Training that\ncomplies with the hazard communication programs required by the Occupational Safety and\nHealth Administration (29 CFR 19 10.120) may be used to satisfy the HMR training\nrequirements to the extent that such training addressed the training components specified in\n172.704(a).\nI hope this information is helpful. If we can be of further assistance, please contact us.\nCharles E. Betts\nChief, Standards Development\nHazardous Materials Standards\n\n<<<PAGE 2>>>\n\nOklahoma Historical Society h ~ d 27.
