Download or read book Transportation of Hazardous Materials written by Leon N. Moses and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1993-05-31 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume brings together leaders from industry and government, as well as leading scholars from economics, law, engineering, psychology, and sociology who have done research on the problems associated with the transportation of hazardous materials and wastes (hazmats) to produce a set of integrated insights and understandings of the problems associated with the transportations of hazmats. The papers in this volume, originally presented at Hazmat Transport '91: A National Conference on the Transportation of Hazardous Materials and Wastes, deal with issues associated with the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act of 1975 (HMTA), the original act passed to regulate the transportation of hazardous materials, and the Hazardous Materials Transportation Uniform Safety Act of 1990 (HMTUSA). The book begins by explaining some of the important aspects of HMTUSA and other recent legislation dealing with the transport of hazmats. The book then considers the important ways in which industry has been attempting to deal with the risks involved with the transportation of hazardous materials. Finally, the book includes discussions of the law and economics, regulation, and cost issues involved in this subject."--Publisher description.

Book excerpt: Industrial development is essential to improvement of the standard of living in all coun tries. In a given region, old and new plants, processes, and technologies have to coexist Technological penetration and substitution processes are generally taking place; they are entirely dynamic and this trend is going to stay like this. People's health and the environment can be affected, directly or indirectly, by rou tine waste discharges or by accidents. A series of recent major industrial accidents and the effect of poUution highlighted, once again, the need for better management of rou tine and accidental risks. Moreover, the existence of natural hazards complicate even more the situation in any given region. Managing the hazards of modern technological systems has become a key activity in highly industrialized countries. Decision makers are often confronted with complex issues concerning economic and social development, industrialization and associated infrastructure needs, population and land use planning. Such issues have to be ad dressed in such a way that ensures that public health wiD not be disrupted or substan tially degraded.

Book Synopsis Going the Distance? by : National Research Council
Download or read book Going the Distance? written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-07-21 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new report from the National Research Council's Nuclear and Radiation Studies Board (NRSB) and the Transportation Research Board reviews the risks and technical and societal concerns for the transport of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste in the United States. Shipments are expected to increase as the U.S. Department of Energy opens a repository for spent fuel and high-level waste at Yucca Mountain, and the commercial nuclear industry considers constructing a facility in Utah for temporary storage of spent fuel from some of its nuclear waste plants. The report concludes that there are no fundamental technical barriers to the safe transport of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive and the radiological risks of transport are well understood and generally low. However, there are a number of challenges that must be addressed before large-quantity shipping programs can be implemented successfully. Among these are managing "social" risks. The report does not provide an examination of the security of shipments against malevolent acts but recommends that such an examination be carried out.
