A hazardous material shipping paper may consist of more than one page if\neach page is consecutively numbered and the first page bears a notation specifying the total\nnumber of pages included in the shipping paper. The hazardous material shipping paper you\nsubmitted consists of four pages, while the only indication of the total number of pages on the\nfirst page titled \"Bill of Lading,\" states \"Page 1 of 1\" and the four pages are not consecutively\nnumbered.\nAdditionally, please note that the shipper's certification is incorrect. For clarity and consistency,\nthe certification must be reproduced word-for-word from one of the applicable options in\n§ 172.204. Abbreviations-for instance, \"DOT\" in place of \"Department of Transportation\"-\nare not acceptable.\nI hope this information is helpful. Please contact us if we can be of further assistance.\n/~;{~~ .\n~~~~ Chief, Standards Development Branch\nStandards and Rulemaking Division\n\n<<<PAGE 2>>>\n\nJanuary, Ikeya CTR {PHMSA)\nFrom:\nSent:\nTo:\nCc:\nSubject:\nAttachments:\nFoster, Glenn (PHMSA)\nMonday, July 02, 2018 8:08 AM\nDodd, Alice (OSD; January, Ikeya CTR (PHMSA)\nFoster, Glenn (PHMSA)\nrequest for interpretation\nimage2018-06-26-201556.pdf\nlkeya and Alice,\nPlease have the attached checked in as a request for an lnterp and assign to a Specialist.\nThanks,\nGlenn\nFrom: Alston, Barbara CTR (PHMSA)\nSent: Friday, June 29, 2018 2:59 PM\nTo: Foster, Glenn (PHMSA) <Glenn.Foster@dot.gov>\nCc: Ciccarone, Michael (PHMSA) <m.ciccarone@dot.gov>; Constantino, Lindsey (PHMSA) <l.constantino@dot.gov>;\nDerKinderen, Dirk (PHMSA) <Dirk.DerKinderen@dot.gov>\nSubject: FW: request for interpretation\nGood Afternoon Team,\nPlease see the Interpretation request below.
