information for the product being
shipped, although not required, is one
form of information that may be used to
satisfy the emergency response
information requirements.
Section 172.602(a)(1) requires that the
emergency response information
contain the basic description and
technical name of the hazardous
material as required by §§ 172.202 and
172.203(k). Section 172.602(b)(3)
requires that the emergency response
information be presented (i) on a
shipping paper; (ii) in a document, other
than a shipping paper, that includes
both the basic description and technical
name of the hazardous material (e.g.
safety data sheet); or (iii) related to the
information on a shipping paper, in a
separate document (e.g., an emergency
response guidance document such as
the most current revision of the
Emergency Response Guidebook (ERG)),
in a manner that cross references the
description of the hazardous material on
the shipping paper with the emergency
response information contained in the
document. If a guide number page from
the ERG is used, it must include the
basic description and, if applicable, the
technical name of the hazardous
material. If the entire ERG is present,
however, the requirements of § 172.602
are satisfied.
Emergency response information must
also be immediately available for use.
Section 172.600(c) requires any person
who offers, accepts, transfers or
otherwise handles hazardous materials
during transportation not do so unless
emergency response information is
immediately available for use at all
times the hazardous material is present.
Additionally, emergency response
information, including the emergency
response telephone number, must be
immediately available to any person
who, as a representative of a Federal,
State or local government agency,
responds to an incident involving a
hazardous material, or is conducting an
investigation which involves a
hazardous material. Section 172.602(c)
prescribes the maintenance of
emergency response information. This
information must be immediately
accessible to train crew personnel,
drivers of motor vehicles, flight crew
members, and bridge personnel on
vessels for use in the event of incidents
involving hazardous materials. Carriers
must maintain emergency response
information in the same manner as
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:53 Apr 22, 2015
Jkt 235001
prescribed for shipping papers (Subpart
C of Part 172 of the HMR).
Emergency response information must
be accompanied by an emergency
response telephone number in
accordance with § 172.604. This
telephone number must be monitored at
all times the hazardous material is in
transportation, including storage
incidental to transportation. The
telephone number must be of a person
who is either knowledgeable of the
hazardous material being shipped and
has comprehensive emergency response
and incident mitigation information for
that material, or has immediate access to
a person who possess such knowledge
and information.
NTSB Safety Recommendation R–14–18
As a result of the November 30, 2012
accident in which a Consolidated Rail
Corporation train containing hazardous
materials derailed, spilling vinyl
chloride into Mantua Creek in
Paulsboro, New Jersey, the NTSB issued
a number of new Safety
Recommendations. Among the
recommendations issued to PHMSA was
R–14–18, which urged PHMSA to ‘‘take
action to ensure that emergency
response information carried by train
crews is consistent with and is at least
as protective as existing emergency
response guidance provided in the
Emergency Response Guidebook.’’ 3 We
are considering possible alternatives,
including regulatory action, to affect
this recommendation.
Conclusion
Emergency response information is a
critical component of hazardous
materials safety. The responsibility to
provide accurate and timely information
is a shared responsibility for all persons
involved in the transportation of
hazardous materials. It is a shipper’s
responsibility to provide accurate
emergency response information that is
consistent with both the information
provided on a shipping paper and the
material being transported. Likewise, reofferors of hazardous materials must
ensure that this information can be
verified to be accurate, particularly if
the material is altered, mixed or
otherwise repackaged prior to being
placed back into transportation. In

addition, carriers must ensure that
emergency response information is
maintained appropriately, is accessible
and can be communicated immediately
in the event of a hazardous materials
incident. Fulfilling these
responsibilities is critical in reducing
the severity of a hazardous materials
incident and reduces the risk to
emergency response personnel,
transportation workers, and the general
public.
