Dear Mr. Brown:
This is in response to your letter dated August 4, 1999, and.
subsequent telephone conversation with a member of my staff
regarding marking of non-bulk packagings intended to contain
combustible liquids under the Hazardous Materials Regulations
on your non-bulk packaging indicating thạt the packaging is
(HMR; 49 CER Parts 171-180). Specifically you ask if the marking
intended to contain liquid materials not subject to the HMR is
worded in a way that is consistent with the requirements of the
HMR.
The answer is yes. It is the opinion of this Office that the
marking you intend to place on your packaging is not in violation
I hope this satisfies your request.
Sincerely,
/ Transportation Regulations Spectalist
Office of Hazardous Materials
Standards

Mr. Gale,
I would like to thank you and your staff for your assistance in our research regarding US DOT
requirements for fluid containers. It is still our intent to build tanks with a capacity of 118 gallons and
enclosed a copy of our re worded label for your review. Written validation of our label's correctness
less for the transportation of non hazardous fluids. I have made all the changes we discussed and
Sincerely,
Guita
Chris Brown.
