Download or read book Criteria for Highway Routing of Hazardous Materials written by Deborah K. Shaver and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1998 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to staff of state departments of transportation responsible for highway routing, traffic engineering, traffic operations and signing, and maintenance. It will also be useful to state police, who may also be responsible for routing, and other enforcement personnel, as well as to emergency and fire personnel. The trucking industry will also find the information of value to their operations. Information is presented on the current practices of states for the highway routing of vehicles that transport hazardous materials. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in 1994 issued Guidelines for Applying Criteria to Designate Routes for Transporting Hazardous Materials, which are used by agencies that elect to designate such routes. This report of the Transportation Research Board is based on information obtained from a survey of states concerning the routing of hazardous materials vehicles that asked respondents to rate the importance of 24 factors in the categories of roadway, environment, population, or other criteria in establishing routing policy. The survey also identified the principal agencies responsible for routing, as well as other agencies that typically participate in the routing plan. Enforcement and cost issues are discussed, as is risk assessment. This report presents a unique discussion of the issues as identified by interviews with trucking trade associations and other organizations involved with hazardous materials transport. In addition, technology applicable to more effective monitoring and enforcement is described. The appendices include commodity flow studies and route designation case studies for selected jurisdictions.

Book Synopsis Effects of Federal Regulations and Standards on the Highway Routing of Hazardous Materials by :
Download or read book Effects of Federal Regulations and Standards on the Highway Routing of Hazardous Materials written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States Congress in 1975 established its interest in the safe routing of hazardous materials by passing the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act. This act dealt with the packaging, labeling, handling, and transporting of hazardous materials for all transportation modes and established the basis for Federal involvement in the routing of hazardous materials. Subsequent actions by the Department of Transportation (DOT) resulted in the development of regulations and guidelines for the safe routing of high levels of radioactive materials. The DOT then turned its attention to the safe routing of nonradioactive materials. While the DOT was advancing its proposed rule, Congress developed and passed the Hazardous Materials Transportation Uniform Safety Act of 1990 (HMTUSA). This act was fairly extensive and specific about the future role of the Federal government in the routing of nonradioactive hazardous materials. It identified specific standards and factors that States would be responsible for if they established, administered, or enforced highway routing of nonradioactive materials. The development of these statutory requirements into a regulation and the anticipated effect of this regulation are discussed in this paper. For the covering abstract of this conference, see IRRD number 863140.

Download or read book Guidelines for Applying Criteria to Designate Routes for Transporting Hazardous Materials written by Edward J. Barber and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Techniques are explained that may be used for evaluating alternative highway routes for hazardous materials movements. The criteria that may be applied for hazardous materials routing is briefly described and their application is illustrated by an example. Current routing practices, with existing regulatory requirements, are described as background. An overview of the routing method is followed by a description of the guidelines and procedures for applying the routing criteria. The concept of risk is defined and each step in the route selection explained. A hypothetical case study illustrates the application of the routing procedures; the example includes personal and property risk calculations and illustrates the techniques for analyzing urban arterials and rural highways. Blank worksheets and forms for structuring and conducting the routing analyses are appended.

This book was released on 1995 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The potential impacts associated with the transportation of hazardous materials are important to shippers, carriers, and the general public. This is particularly true for shipments of radioactive material. The shippers are primarily concerned with safety, security, efficiency, and equipment requirements. The carriers are concerned with the potential impact that radioactive shipments may have on their operations--particularly if such materials are involved in an accident. The general public has also expressed concerns regarding the safety of transporting radioactive and other hazardous materials through their communities. Because transportation routes are a central concern in hazardous material transport, the prediction of likely routes is the first step toward resolution of these issues. In response to these routing needs, several models have been developed over the past fifteen years at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). The HIGHWAY routing model is used to predict routes for truck transportation, the INTERLINE routing model is used to predict both rail and barge routes, and the AIRPORT locator model is used to determine airports with specified criteria near a specific location. As part of the ongoing improvement of the US Department of Energy's (DOE) Environmental Management Transportation Management Division's (EM-261) computer systems and development efforts, a Baseline Requirements Assessment Session on the HIGHWAY, INTERLINE, and AIRPORT models was held at ORNL on April 27, 1994. The purpose of this meeting was to discuss the existing capabilities of the models and data bases and to review enhancements of the models and data bases to expand their usefulness. The results of the Baseline Requirements Assessment Section will be discussed in this report. The discussions pertaining to the different models are contained in separate sections.
