You state that you received a violation for not indicating the letters RQ on the shipping paper for a shipment of UN 1760, Corrosive liquid, n.o.s (Phosphoric Acid, Hydrofluoric Acid) 8, PG II, 2 Drums, 1096 LBS. You ask if there is an HMR requirement for the shipper to include the weight or concentration range of each hazardous component of a mixture on shipping papers. The answer to your question is no. There is no requirement for a shipper to indicate weights or concentration ranges for hazardous components of a mixture or solution. Section 172.203(c) prescribes the documentation requirements for materials that are hazardous substances. Based on the information provided, since the weight of the hydrofluoric acid in the mixture is below the 100 pound limit indicated in Appendix A to § 172.101, the letters "RQ" on the shipping paper would not be required for this hazardous material. I trust this information is helpful. If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact this office. Sincerely, - 1 Duane Pfund International Standards Coordinator Standards and Rulemaking Division <<>> Webb 112 203(C)(2) Goodall, Shante CTR (PHMSA) HAzardous Substan.

Washington DC 20590-0001 RE: Request for Interpretation regarding determining a Hazardous Substance RQ Listing on the bill of lading, Regulation 172.203 (c) (2). To Whom it May Concern: Transport America is requesting guidance in determining if a shipper needs to include on the bills the formula for a finished good to determine if the mixture is required to include an RQ on the bill of lading. We received a violation from the DOT For: RQ NOT ON SHIPPING PAPER (FMCSR 172.203 (c) (2) - UN1760 Corrosive liquid, n.o.s (Phosphoric Acid, Hydrofluoric Acid) 8, PGlI, 2 Drums, 1096 LBS. (548 Ibs. per drum) According to the Hazardous Substance table Phosphoric Acid would need a RQ if it is 5,000 Ibs. or more per container and Hydrofluoric Acid if it is 100 Ibs. or more per container. Is there a HMR that states shippers have to include the weight of each Hazardous Substance in a mixture per container? Or is the officer incorrect when it comes to interpreting the HMR for RQ? included in the recipe for a Finished good? Is this correct? According to the shipper, Chemetall, they are not required to include the total weight, of each hazardous Raw Material 1 <<>> Transport America Data Qu with the state DOT and included interpretation letter 12-0181 Q3 A3: . Please see the attached document RQ.pdf. The DOT came back with regulation 177.817 (a) General requirements. A person may not accept a hazardous material for transportation or transport a hazardous material by highway unless that person has received a shipping paper prepared in accordance with part 172 of this subchapter or the material is excepted from shipping paper requirements under this subchapter. A subsequent carrier may not transport a hazardous material unless it is accompanied by a shipping paper prepared in accordance with part 172 of this subchapter, except for $172.204, which is not required. After this Data Qu was denied by the state we received the formula from the shipper: According to them there is only 10 Ibs. 1.8% of Hydrofluoric Acid in the mixture. Please see the attached E-mail which includes the MSDS. Also included the actual Bill of Lading. How do we find a resolution to this violation so it doesn't happen in this particular state again?

Date PLACARDS <<>> U.S. Department of Transportation 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE Washington. DC 20590 Materials Safety Pipeline and Hazardous Administration DEC 1 1 2012 Mr. Raymond Kasey Railroad Regulatory Safety Services 7500 Masonville Drive Falls Church, VA 22042-3520 Ref. No.: 12-0181 Dear Mr. Kasey: This responds to your August 1, 2012 letter requesting clarification of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180) applicable to the proper classification of a marine pollutant, in addition to carrier verification requirements. In your letter, you state that your client, a class one and three railroad carrier, recently accepted a shipping paper for a bulk package identified as "p-Dodecylphenol" with no other description listed on the shipping paper. As an attachment, you provide a material safety data sheet (MSDS) for a product called "Lubrizol 9222R" which lists its hazardous ingredient as "p-Dodecylphenol, CAS No. 74499-35-7, Percentage (by wt.) from 1 to 4.9 percent." You further indicate that Dodecylphenol is listed in Appendix B to § 172.101 with a "PP" identifying the material as a severe marine pollutant. Your questions are paraphrased and answered below. Q1: You ask whether "Lubrizol 9222R," according to the attached MSDS, meets the definition of a (severe) marine pollutant? Additionally, you ask if a material is considered a listed marine pollutant if the technical name of the material does not synonym does? specifically appear in the table of marine pollutants (§ 172.101, Appendix B) but a A1: In accordance with § 173.22, it is the shipper's responsibility to properly classify and describe a hazardous material. This Office does not perform that function. Under the HMR, a material is considered a listed marine pollutant if either its technical name or a synonym appears in the table of marine pollutants. Furthermore, if the listed marine pollutant is in a mixture or solution, the shipper should consult the definition of a marine pollutant in § 171.8. In order to be considered a marine pollutant, the listed substance must be in a concentration of ten percent by weight, or if a severe marine pollutant, be in a concentration of one percent by weight. <<>> Therefore, if: (1) p-Dodecylphenol is a synonym to Dodecylphenol; and (2) the concentration of Dodecylphenol in the solution is at least one percent by weight, then the answer would be yes and "Lubrizol 9222R" would appear to be a marine pollutant. However, as stated above, it is the shipper's responsibility to properly classify and describe a hazardous material. Q2: You ask what is the required shipping name when a product shipped under a trade name is offered for transportation and contains the chemical p-Dodecylphenol in a bulk package at or above the concentration specified in Appendix B of the Hazardous Materials Table (HMT)? A2: Please note that marine pollutants listed in Appendix B are not necessarily listed by name in the § 172.101 HMT. If a marine pollutant not listed by name or by synonym in the § 172.101 HMT meets the definition of any hazard Class 1 through 8, you must determine the class and division of the material in accordance with § 173.2a of the HMR. Furthermore, you must also select the most appropriate hazardous material description and proper shipping name. If a marine pollutant not listed by name or by synonym in the § 172.101 HMT does not meet the definition of any Class 1 through 8, you must offer it for transportation under the most appropriate of the following two Class 9 entries: "Environmentally hazardous substances, liquid, n.o.s.," UN3082, or "Environmentally hazardous substances, solid, n.o.s." UN3077. In this specific case, it would appear that the former (along with a technical name) is the appropriate proper shipping name. Q3: You ask whether a carrier may rely on information provided by the manufacturer (or previous offeror) and in good faith rely on that information when transporting those hazardous materials? A3: The answer is yes. Although the HMR place primary responsibility on the shipper, or "person who offers," to properly class and communicate the hazard of a hazardous material, a carrier may be held responsible for non-compliance with applicable requirements to the extent that the carrier knows, or should have known, that a material offered for transportation is hazardous. A carrier may rely on information provided by the shipper, unless the carrier knows, or a reasonable person, acting in the circumstances and exercising reasonable care, would have knowledge that the information provided is incorrect. I trust this satisfies your inquiry. Please contact us if we can be of further assistance. Sincerely, T.
