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.
Book Synopsis Criteria for Highway Routing of Hazardous Materials by : Deborah K. Shaver
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.

Moses In June 1991, the Transportation Center at Northwestern University sponsored Hazmat Transport '91: A National Conference on the Transportation of Hazardous Materials and Wastes. The faculty associated with the center were aware that there had been many professional, industrial and government conferences and meetings on the subject. However, they believed that the unique capacity of the Transportation Center to bring 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), could produce a set of integrated insights and understandings that would go well beyond those of previous conferences. The papers that make up this volume were all delivered at Hazmat Transport '91. From a legislative point of view, they tend to 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 (HMTVSA). There were talks and papers presented at the conference that focused on other recent legislation and transportation issues with which HMTUSA does not deal. The conference proceedings volume also had discussions and papers on significant managerial and regulatory issues that could not be included in this volume because of constraints on its size. Therefore, this essay is made up of three parts.

Book Synopsis Analysis of the Preemptive Effect of Federal Hazardous Material Laws on Virginia's Bridge-tunnel Regulations by : David Randal Ayers
Download or read book Analysis of the Preemptive Effect of Federal Hazardous Material Laws on Virginia's Bridge-tunnel Regulations written by David Randal Ayers and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In May 1988, the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) adopted regulations that govern the transportation of hazardous materials through seven highway tunnel facilities. Recently, the validity of these regulations have been called into question on two separate grounds. First, since the federal government has been active in regulating the transportation of hazardous materials, the Commerce and Supremacy Clauses of the U.S. Constitution may preclude states from adopting hazardous material transportation regulations. Second, regulations promulgated under the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act (HMTA) of 1975 may preclude state regulatory activity in the hazardous material transportation area. This study evaluates the legality of the VDOT tunnel regulations in light of the above challenges to their validity. As to the first challenge to the VDOT regulations, it is highly unlikely a court would find the regulations preempted. VDOT's regulations, however, are more problematic when tested against the preemption provisions outlined in the HMTA. The HMTA expressly preempts state regulations which: 1. make compliance with the federal regulations an impossibility; 2. are an obstacle to the accomplishment of the federal regulations; or 3. which are preempted under 49 App. U.S.C. 1804(a)(4) (which preempts state regulations that deal with a subject covered by the HMTA and which are not substantively identical to the HMTA provisions) or 49 App. U.S.C. 1804(b) (which excludes certain state regulations that deal with hazardous material routing). The analysis conducted in this study seems to indicate that the HMTA preempts VDOT's attempt to regulate hazardous material shipments through the state's tunnels. However, the HMTA also includes a number of exceptions to the general preemption rules. One of these regulations, 49 C.F.R. 177.810 (1992) provides that: nothing contained in [the regulations promulgated under the HMTA] shall be so construed as to nullify or supersede regulations established ... under authority of State statute ... regarding the kind, character, or quantity of any hazardous material permitted by such regulations to be transported through any urban vehicular tunnel used for mass transportation. In summary, the VDOT tunnel regulations are almost certainly preempted to the extent they apply to non-urban tunnels, and may further be preempted to the extent they reclassify hazardous materials. Consequently, it is recommended that VDOT submit its regulations to the Research and Special Programs Administration (RSPA) of the Department of Transportation for a preemption determination.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) is responsible for developing and issuing the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-185). These regulations govern the transportation of hazardous materials (hazmat) in interstate, intrastate, and foreign commerce. DOT carries out this responsibility through the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA). The primary goal of the HMR is to ensure the safety of the public and those who prepare, offer, and transport hazmat. The Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) are rules published in the Federal Register by Executive departments and agencies of the Federal Government and have the force of the law. The 49 CFR, Parts 100-185, contains the current HMR under Chapter I - Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation.
