Hazardous Materials Certification Training Part 2
- 1. Hazardous Materials Certification Training Section II - IATA Created 12/12/2014; by: Matthew Gaudyn Revised 12/12/2014
- 3. Hazardous Materials Training • The Scope of this Training Program: o Introduce “Code of Federal Regulations, Title 49” (a.k.a. 49 CFR) • How to use Hazardous Materials Table • Packaging, Labeling, and Marking • Creating a Bill of Lading for Hazardous Materials Ground Shipment o Introduce IATA Handbook • Familiarize with IATA Handbook • Identify differences and limitations between IATA and 49 CFR • Creating a Shipper’s Declaration of Dangerous Goods for Air Shipment o Testing Knowledge of Training • Generic testing of entire scope of training • AAA Molybdenum specific testing Section I Section II Section III
- 4. International Bodies of Regulation for Air/Sea Code for Transport of Dangerous Goods Specialized Agency Governing Body UN (United Nations) ICAO (Int’l Civil Aviation Org) IATA (Int’l Air Transportation Association) IMO (Int’l Maritime Org) IMDG (Int’l Maritime Dangerous Goods)
- 5. IATA • The IATA Handbook is a collection of Rules and Regulations and exists under the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) • IATA is meant to help standardize all the different Countries’ and Air Carrier’s specifications on transporting Dangerous Goods • Despite the standardization, individual countries and carriers may still have additional rules and regulations in addition to the ones included in the IATA Manual
- 6. IATA • 49 CFR ≠ IATA (but they must both be referenced) o Transport of Dangerous Goods by air MUST be in accordance with the US Regulations (49 CFR §§171-180) or by the ICAO Technical Instructions as limited by 49 CFR §171 Subpart C. The requirements of 49 CFR §175 apply to ALL shipments offered for air transport to, from or within the US, including when the shipment is prepared in accordance with these regulations. §175 contains additional requirements applicable to any person who performs, attempts to perform, or is required to perform a function subject to 49 CFR and is also applicable to air passengers and crew. When the ICAO Technical Instructions are used for consignments of dangerous goods, failure to comply with the ICAO Technical Instructions and ALL relevant US variations is a violation of the US Regulations. o The IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations are fully in compliance with ICAO Annex 18 and its associated Technical Instructions.
- 7. IATA • First of all, even though a shipment is prepared according to 49 CFR, that does not necessarily mean that the shipment is appropriate to go via Domestic Air or International Air – what is really meant by the word “appropriate” is “LEGAL” o It is assumed (and the HazMat Trained employee even signs off on the shipment) that the person that has prepared the shipment has verified that the package has been prepared in accordance with the appropriate regulations. • Secondly, what is a variation, as was mentioned in the previous slide?
- 8. IATA • Variations o Two types of Variations exist: Country Variations and Carrier Variations o Variations are found in the IATA Manual in “Section 2 – Limitations” o This section contains all the Limitations/Variations that are in effect by each Country and Carrier • Country Variations might prohibit the import of certain substances, or limit the quantity of that particular Dangerous Good o Some countries are different than others. One might completely prohibit the import of a good while another country might allow the import with no restrictions. • Carrier Variations are similar – different airlines will dictate what their policies allow them to transport
- 9. IATA • So, all of the Country and Carrier limitations are listed in the IATA Manual, but how do I know if my Dangerous Good fits the bill or if it applies to my shipment? • We will get to Variations soon and how they apply, but FIRST: • The IATA Manual contains a list of Dangerous Goods similar to the 49 CFR list of Hazardous Materials in §172.101 o This is the First place to go and start preparing your Air shipment, just like preparing the Domestic Shipment using the 49 CFR o The list is easy to find in the IATA Manual. It is in “Section 4 – Identification” also known as the BLUE PAGES o The IATA Manual operates in much the same way as the 49 CFR does

IATA PG E Passenger and Cargo Aircraft Cargo Aircraft Only Ltd Qty Pkg Inst I Max Net Qty/P kg J Pkg Inst K Max Net Qty/P kg L Pkg Inst G Max Net Qty/Pkg H I II III Forbidde n Y840 Y841 Forbidden 0.5 L 1 L 850 851 852 0.5 L 1 L 5 L 854 855 856 2.5 L 30 L 60 L • Remember the “Limited Quantity” Marking? It has a “Y” in the middle of the diamond. It is related to the “Y” in front of the packing instruction for Limited Quantity packagings • All Ltd Qty instructions are preceded with a “Y”
- 20. IATA UN/ ID no.. A Proper Shipping Name/Descr iption B Class or Div.

Always check Special Provisions when assembling a shipment
- 21. IATA • What does a Packing Instruction look like? o Here is an example of a Packing Instruction for Mercury: (Notice that the Packing Instructions for P&C are identical to CAO in this particular example) o In order to find the Packing Instruction in the IATA Manual, turn to Section 5 – Packing, and find Packing Instruction #868 o Since the Instruction is the same for both methods of transport, either method is acceptable for the shipment (Be sure to use the CAO sticker when applicable!) UN/ ID no.. A Proper Shipping Name/Descr iption B Class or Div. (Sub Risk) C Hazard Label(s) D PG E EQ see 2.6 F Passenger and Cargo Aircraft Cargo Aircraft Only S.P . see 4.4 M ERG Code N Ltd Qty Pkg Inst I Max Net Qty/Pkg J Pkg Inst K Max Net Qty/Pkg L Pkg Inst G Max Net Qty/Pkg H 2809 Mercury 8 (6.1) Corrosive & Toxic III E0 Forbidden Forbidden 868 35 kg 868 35 kg A804 8P
- 22. IATA • Example: Packing Instruction 868 o Each Packing Instruction will contain the following sets of information: • State Variation(s) • Operator Variation(s) • Compatibility Requirements • Closure Requirements • Additional Packing requirements • Either “Combination and single packagings are permitted” OR “Single packagings are not permitted” • Allowed Combination Packagings and Single Packagings (if permitted) • Net Quantity Dangerous Good per packaging
- 23. IATA • Example: Packing Instruction 868 o In this particular example, the PI contains: • State Variation: USG-04 • Operator Variations: AM-08, CX-05, KA-05, QR-05, and QT-02 o What do all these abbreviations mean? Each state/country is given its own set of codes. Every country’s code is a 3-letter code and ends with a “G” o Some Countries are obvious (e.g.: USG = United States, AUG = Australia, FRG = France) o Some are less so (e.g.: DQG = Fiji, VCG = Sri Lanka, ESG = Spain) o Operator Abbreviations work the same way (e.g.: 5X = UPS, FX = FedEx, D0 = DHL Ltd) A list of Abbreviations can be found in Section 2 – Limitations (2.8.1.3 & 2.8.3.4)
- 24. IATA • Example: Packing Instruction 868 o So what is State Variation: USG-04? Turn to Section 2 – Limitations; under USG there is a numbered list of all the limitations by the United States o In a nutshell – since USG-04 is a long variation – the Variation states that there are extra requirements that this shipment must meet if it is imported/exported to/from the US o USG-04 references 49 CFR §172.101 Hazardous Substances! o This USG variation ensures that the shipper knows that any Dangerous Good that references this variation, is considered a Hazardous Substance, and must be named as a Reportable Quantity (RQ) if the amount being shipped meets or exceeds those as listed in the 49 CFR Hazardous Substance table o The variation also states exceptions (which are not applicable in this particular example)
- 25. IATA • Example: Packing Instruction 868 o What about the Operator Variations: AM-08, CX-05, KA-05, QR-05, and QT-02? o Special attention must be given if the shipper (or freight forwarder) is using the services of: AM (AeroMexico), CX (Cathay Pacific Airways), KA (Hong Kong Dragon Airlines), QR (Qatar Airways) or QT (Tampa Cargo) o Most common carriers (for AAA Molybdenum) are: UPS (5X), FedEx (FX), or DHL (D0 or D5) o But let’s take a look at what the AM-08 (AeroMexico) variation is. (Operator Variations are found AFTER the State Variations) A freight forwarder is a carrier that uses the services of another airline. For example, DHL Global Forwarding contracts with various other airlines. It is their responsibility to ensure that the package and shipment are compatible with the respective brokered airline, but it is still your responsibility to ensure compatibility with the importing country
- 26. IATA • Example: Packing Instruction 868 o AM-08 (AeroMexico) variation reads: “Class 8, Corrosives in Packing Group I will not be accepted for carriage. Class 8 Corrosives in Packing Group I or II will be accepted for carriage subject to prior authorization (exception: COMAT parts and supplies)” o Luckily, our shipment of Mercury is only a P.G. III Dangerous Good, and therefore the AM-08 variation does not apply IF WE ARE SHIPPING WITH AeroMexico o If Mercury is a P.G. III, then why does this variation appear in this Packing Instruction? There are other materials that reference the same PI 868, and therefore, each variation must cover a multitude of situations
- 27. IATA • Let’s go through one more example, that will trigger almost everything covered thus far. There are things that have not been specifically mentioned, but will show up in the following example. Hopefully, they will be easily understood. • For the following problem, we will need to: o Identify the material and proper shipping name o Properly assemble the package, including Labels, Markings, and Appropriate packaging (UN-rating) o Reference the Packing Instructions (PI’s), Special Provisions (SP’s) and any State and Operator Variations
- 28. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o FIRST Step: look at the IATA Dangerous Goods list (Blue Pages) and determine Proper Shipping Name o When you open the IATA Manual to find Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide, the following entry appears: UN/ ID no.. A Proper Shipping Name/Descriptio n B Class or Div. (Sub Risk) C Hazard Label(s) D PG E EQ see 2.6 F Passenger and Cargo Aircraft Cargo Aircraft Only S.P . see 4.4 M ERG Code N Ltd Qty Pkg Inst I Max Net Qty/Pkg J Pkg Inst K Max Net Qty/Pkg L Pkg Inst G Max Net Qty/P kg H Benzensulfphonyl Hydrazide, see Self-reactive solid type D ★ (UN 3226)
- 29. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o The first thing you might notice is that the entire table is blank except for Section B: Proper Shipping Name/Description o Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide does not have its own entry, but is instead under a different descriptor: see Self-reactive solid type D o Remember, the “★” means that it is a Generic name, and Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide must be included in parenthesis UN/ ID no.. A Proper Shipping Name/Descriptio n B Class or Div. (Sub Risk) C Hazard Label(s) D PG E EQ see 2.6 F Passenger and Cargo Aircraft Cargo Aircraft Only S.P . see 4.4 M ERG Code N Ltd Qty Pkg Inst I Max Net Qty/Pkg J Pkg Inst K Max Net Qty/Pkg L Pkg Inst G Max Net Qty/P kg H Benzensulfphonyl Hydrazide, see Self-reactive solid type D ★ (UN 3226)
- 30. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o Just like in a dictionary (go “see”: ____), you will need to go to Self-reactive solid type D (UN 3226) in the IATA Manual o You would have to do your research to determine if Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide would need to be Temperature Controlled; fortunately it does not have to be, otherwise it would be forbidden for ALL AIR TRANSPORT! UN/ ID no.. A Proper Shipping Name/Descripti on B Class or Div. (Sub Risk) C Hazard Label(s) D PG E EQ se e 2.6 F Passenger and Cargo Aircraft Cargo Aircraft Only S.P . see 4.4 M ERG Code N Ltd Qty Pkg Inst I Max Net Qty/Pkg J Pkg Inst K Max Net Qty/Pkg L Pkg Inst G Max Net Qty/Pkg H 3226 Self-reactive solid type D ★ 4.1 Flamm.

- 31. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o Proper Shipping Name will therefore be: “UN 3226 Self-reactive solid type D (Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide), Class 4.1” (You’ll also notice there is no P.G. number for this particular material, discussed later) o It is a Class 4.1 Hazard, therefore the package will require the 4.1 Flammable Solid Label AND you will also notice that the Hazard Label Section also requires the “Keep Away From Heat” label (this label must be included on the package) UN/ ID no.. A Proper Shipping Name/Descripti on B Class or Div.

Solid & Keep away from heat E0 Forbidden Forbidden 459 5 kg 459 10 kg A20 A802 3L
- 32. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o Since we need to ship 10 kgs of Material, we would not be able to send a single package via P&C, but we could send 2 x 5 kg packages via P&C or we could send a single package via CAO o If the order was for more than 10 kg of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide, then we would definitely have to break down the order into quantities of ≤10 kgs per package, if it were to ship at all o For this example, lets use the CAO shipping method, and send 1 x 10 kg package (Notice that ALL Ltd Qty shipments are forbidden for this material) UN/ ID no..

- 33. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o Before we continue on to Packing Instruction 459, let’s find out what the Special Provisions (SP’s) are • Special Provisions can be found in Section 4.4 – Identification, which is actually in the section after the Blue Pages/Dangerous Goods Table • Let’s look at SP’s A20 and A802 UN/ ID no.. A Proper Shipping Name/Descripti on B Class or Div. (Sub Risk) C Hazard Label(s) D PG E EQ se e 2.6 F Passenger and Cargo Aircraft Cargo Aircraft Only S.P . see 4.4 M ERG Code N Ltd Qty Pkg Inst I Max Net Qty/Pkg J Pkg Inst K Max Net Qty/Pkg L Pkg Inst G Max Net Qty/Pkg H 3226 Self-reactive solid type D ★ 4.1 Flamm. Solid & Keep away from heat E0 Forbidden Forbidden 459 5 kg 459 10 kg A20 A802 3L
- 34. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o A20: “During the course of transport, this substance must be protected from direct sunlight and all sources of heat and be placed in adequately ventilated areas. A statement to this effect must be included on the Shipper’s Declaration. Notes: 1. See 8.1.6.11.1 and Appendix C.1 and C.2 for additional information. 2. Packages must have the “Keep Away From Heat” handling label affixed (see 7.2.4.5 and Figure 7.4.F).” o A802: “Notwithstanding the absence of a packing group in column E, substances and articles assigned to these entries must be packed in UN Specification packagings that meet packing group II performance standards. This does not apply when aerosols are prepared for transport in accordance with the limited quantity provisions.”
- 35. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o For SP A20, you need to do two things: 1. Ensure that in the Shipper’s Declaration, you have written that the package must be kept in well ventilated areas and away from all sources of heat and sunlight, and 2. Make sure that the package has the “Keep Away From Heat” label, as we have confirmed earlier from the DG Table. You can reference the sections 8.1.6.11.1, Appendices C1 and C2, and verify that you have the correct label with section 7.2.4.5 and Figure 7.4.F o For A802, remember how the table did not have a Packing Group associated with the Self-reactive solid type D? This is why. Unless the product were an aerosol, we have to make sure that the package conforms to at least PG II, UN Specifications
- 36. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o Just to make sure we cover everything, let’s check out all those Sections that SP A20 references: 8.1.6.11.1, Appendices C1 and C2 + 7.2.4.5 and Figure 7.4.F o 8.1.6.11.1 is Additional Handling Information for Self-Reactive Substances: • “Enter any special handling information relevant to the shipment. For example, for self-reactive substances of Division 4.1 or other substances having similar properties and organic peroxides of Division 5.2 with Special Provision A20 in Column M of the List of Dangerous Goods, the shipper must indicate that the packages containing such substances must be protected from direct sunlight and all sources of heat and be placed in adequately ventilated areas” o There are also State and Operator variations under this section (8.1.6.11)! What!? • Let’s look at USG-12, for example (remember, Section 2 – Limitations) • USG-12: “On shipments to, from, within or transiting through the US, emergency response information as described below must be provided for all dangerous goods other than magnetized material (UN 2807), Dangerous Goods is required and Other Regulated Material as defined in 49 CFR 173.144…(the State Variation continues on for over half a page). • You’ll notice that the IATA handbook references the CFR manual. Yes, cross referencing is sometimes required to ensure everything is well and done with a shipment.
- 37. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o Before we finish with 8.1.6.11, let’s take a look at DHL’s Operator Variation as an example (D0-09 and D5-05) • D0-09 (D5-05 is identical): “The shipper must provide a 24-hr emergency telephone number of a person/agency who is knowledgeable of the hazards, characteristics and actions to be taken in the case of an accident or incident concerning each of the dangerous goods being transported. This telephone number, including the country and area code, preceded by the words “Emergency Contact” or “24-hour number”, must be inserted on the DGD, preferably in the “Handling Information” box (See 8.1.6.11 and 10.8.3.11). A 24-hr emergency telephone number is not required for shipments that do not require a Shipper’s Declaration for Dangerous Goods.” • We’ve already familiarized ourselves with 8.1.6.11 in the previous slide, but we must also look at 10.8.3.11 if we are to ship via DHL (Air Limited (D0) or Aero Express(D5)) • 10.8.3.11 refers to Additional Handling Information concerning Radioactive shipments (Section 10 – Radioactive). Radioactive material is an incredibly sensitive and special thing to ship, and eludes the scope of this training. However, the point of this exercise is to point out that when preparing a shipment, the shipper must reference all relevant sections! Fortunately, we do not have to concern ourselves with Radioactivity.
- 38. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o The 24-hour emergency contact information is actually very common in dangerous goods and hazardous material shipping. AAA Molybdenum utilizes a service through CHEMTREC o CHEMTREC has a phone number and contract number that the shipper would add to the Dangerous Goods Declaration (which will be reviewed in detail later) o In the case of emergency, the operator/carrier will contact CHEMTREC and be able to appropriately respond to the spill or emergency
- 39. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o Just to make sure we cover everything, let’s check out all those Sections that SP A20 references: 8.1.6.11.1, Appendices C1 and C2 + 7.2.4.5 and Figure 7.4.F o Appendix C1 contains a “List of Currently Assigned Self-reactive Substances of Division 4.1 in Packages”. Use this list to verify your material or reference o Appendix C2 is meant for Organic Peroxides Division 5.2 (not applicable to our shipment) o What is 7.2.4.5? • “The ‘Keep Away From Heat’ handling label (see Figure 7.4.F) must be used in addition to applicable hazard label on packages and overpacks containing self- reactive substances in Division 4.1 and Division 5.2, Organic Peroxides (see SP 20)”
- 40. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o Just to make sure we cover everything, let’s check out all those Sections that SP A20 references: 8.1.6.11.1, Appendices C1 and C2 + 7.2.4.5 and Figure 7.4.F • This is the Figure, and this label must be present on the package. Fairly self-explanatory. • Also, if you go to IATA Figure 7.4.F, you will notice specifications about the label: Minimum dimensions: 74 x 105 mm Colour: Red (Pantone Colour No. 186U) and Black on a White background or alternative colours. Yes, even the “colours” are specified.
- 41. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o We’ve figured out that we need the “Keep Away From Heat” label and the 24-hour emergency phone number in many many words as per the specific State and Operator variations o So we’re finally done looking at the Special Provisions and the rigmarole that that task sent us on. Time to move to the meatiest part of this example: Packaging Instruction # 459 UN/ ID no.. A Proper Shipping Name/Descripti on B Class or Div.

- 42. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o To find the Packing Instructions, turn to Section 5 – Packing (the Yellow Pages) o PI 459 Applies to self-reactive substances on P&C and CAO • No State Variations exist, but there are a couple Operator Variations • Since our customer has expressed that they really want the package to be shipped via El Al Israel Airlines, we must obey the LY-04 Operator Variation • Under LY-04, apparently the airline does not allow any Class 4 Division 4.1 materials on their Passenger aircraft, therefore the package cannot go P&C; CAO is the only available option • This is the only variation that applies to this particular shipment. Let’s move on.
- 43. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o The main body of this Packing Instruction 459 provides Requirements and Options for packaging o First of all, we must meet the “General Packing Requirements of 5.0.2”, which are located in the front of the Section 5 – Packing o Most of Section 5.0.2 provides outlines for packaging and generic information. It is a large section, and it is recommended to familiarize yourself with the basic requirements o However, Section 5.0.2.16 is of specific interest, since it describes the packing requirements for “Self-reactive Substances and Organic Peroxides” • This section specifically references Chapter 6, where all the test requirements for all various packagings are specified; this is mostly for reference for the manufacturers of the packages, but you still need to make sure that the applicable requirements are met for your package
- 44. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o Once the General Packing Requirements are met, the PI makes sure that you meet the: • “Compatibility Requirements” – make sure contents are not going to react violently with their package • “Closure Requirements” – make sure the lid on a drum or pail isn’t going to fly off or that the cap is torqued properly • “Additional Packing Requirements” – in this example, packagings must meet Packing Group II performance standards, which we already knew from the Special Provisions o You’ll notice one more thing listed after all the “requirements”, and that is: Single Packagings are not permitted
- 45. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o So what is permitted? Only Combination Packagings are permitted. Combination Packagings must consist of an Inner and an Outer Packaging o The PI contains a table of permissible Inner and Outer packagings, AS WELL AS maximum capacities o We are shipping a Solid, so this example will only look at the SOLID section of the packaging, only UN 3226 materials, and since we are not shipping via Passenger, we can only ship via CAO UN Number Inner Packaging (see 6.1) Net Qty per Inner Pkg P&C Net Qty per Inner Pkg CAO Total Net Qty per Pkg P&C Total Net Qty per Pkg CAO UN 3226 Plastic 0.5 kg 1.0 kg 5.0 kg 10.0 kg Plastic Bag 0.5 kg 1.0 kg 5.0 kg 10.0 kg
- 46. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o One of the first things to notice is the “Net Qty per Inner Pkg CAO” – the maximum weight allowed per Inner Package is 1.0 kg of material (if the customer had wanted a 10 kg bag of this material, we would have to inform the customer that this was impossible) o Okay, so we need to pack out the Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide in 1.0 kg (or less) packages. The only packages allowed are either Plastic containers (e.g. HDPE bottles) or Plastic Bags AND these inner containers must meet Chapter 6.1 requirements for containers and testing • For example, 6.1.2 Plastic: “Packagings must be well constructed. The materials of which these packagings and closures are made must be of good quality polyethylene or other suitable plastic and, where in contact with the substance, resistant to it. Closures must be sufficiently tight to prevent leaking and sifting. Stoppers or corks must be held securely in position with wire, adhesive tape, or other positive means.” UN Number Inner Packaging (see 6.1) Net Qty per Inner Pkg P&C Net Qty per Inner Pkg CAO Total Net Qty per Pkg P&C Total Net Qty per Pkg CAO UN 3226 Plastic 0.5 kg 1.0 kg 5.0 kg 10.0 kg Plastic Bag 0.5 kg 1.0 kg 5.0 kg 10.0 kg
- 47. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o The “Total Net Qty per Pkg CAO” is important too. It tells us how much we can have per outer package, total. It’s lucky that the customer wanted 10 kg of material. If they had wanted 11 kg or more, we would have to send at least two packages. • For our example, lets decide to use 10 x 1 kg plastic bottles, since the bottles are probably a nicer selection over plastic bags o The material-of-construction for the Outer Packaging is more diverse. See next slide. UN Number Inner Packaging (see 6.1) Net Qty per Inner Pkg P&C Net Qty per Inner Pkg CAO Total Net Qty per Pkg P&C Total Net Qty per Pkg CAO UN 3226 Plastic 0.5 kg 1.0 kg 5.0 kg 10.0 kg Plastic Bag 0.5 kg 1.0 kg 5.0 kg 10.0 kg
- 48. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o Now we need to select an outer packaging that will support our 10 x 1 kg plastic bottles o For our example, lets select a Fibreboard Box (since they are simple) o What kind of UN-rating will our Fibreboard Box need to have? • We know already that the box will have to be UN-rated, so we need to have that “UN circle logo” • We already know it is a Fibreboard box, so it will have the “4G” signifying that fact • The box will have to hold at least 10 kgs (the material) + any extra weight from the plastic bottles, etc. Let’s say that the box should have at least a rating of 15 kgs to comfortably ship this order • And because the package is a Combination Package, it will have the “S” also signifying that fact Type Drums Jerricans Boxes Desc.

- 49. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o The Outer Packaging should have a UN-rating that looks something like this: 4G/Y/15/S/14/USA/MFRNAME
- 50. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o And with these Labels:
- 51. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o The final package should look something like this: (That’s a big box! All labels and markings must fit on the same side/surface an be legible) Yes, there are minimum size requirements (and exceptions) for Text and Labels 4G/Y/15/S/14/USA/MFRNAME From: AAA Molybdenum Products, INC. 7233 W 116TH Pl.

- 52. IATA • Example: Need to Ship 10 kgs of Benzenesulfonyl Hydrazide o Now that the package is prepared and ready to go, we need to prepare the documentation o Remember: all Hazardous Materials that are transported via Air, are referred to as “Dangerous Goods” (DGs) o This is why the formal document that you fill out for the transportation of the DGs is referred to as the Shipper’s Declaration of Dangerous Goods or Dangerous Goods Declaration (DGD) o Every DG shipment must have the DGD o Most carriers require at least 3 copies of the DGD (each copy must be signed) • DHL requires 4 copies
- 53. IATA • This is an example of a DGD • ALL DGDs have the Shipper’s Name + Address Consignee’s Name + Address Page __ of __ (MUST BE FILLED OUT) Name/Title of Person Preparing Shipment (Must be HazMat Trained and have records) Place and Date (i.e. Broomfield, CO U.S.A. (when international)) Signature Required
- 54. IATA • The 3 Most Important Sections! The NON-APPLICABLE Options must be either: X’d-Out or Blacked-Out Entirely (Therefore, this shipment is CAO Only and NON-RADIOACTIVE) The CHEMTREC number and contract number goes here The UN Number, Proper Shipping Name, Primary Class, PG, Subsidiary Risk, QTY/Type, and Packing Instruction (SEE NEXT SLIDE FOR EXAMPLE) If the Air Waybill No. is known enter it If the Airport of Destination is known, enter it Most carriers will fill this information upon receipt of package if it is not already typed in
- 55. IATA UN 3226 Self-reactive solid type D (Benzensulfonyl Hydrazide) 4.1 1 Fiberboard box x 10 kg NET 459 • All of these sections are required (when applicable), except “Authorization”. You can leave this section blank. This is for the carrier. N/A
- 56. IATA • FedEx requires that the Shipper’s Declaration be “software generated” o FedEx’s shipping software will compile your shipment for you, but you still need to select the properties of the shipment (i.e. Proper packing group, Packing Instruction) o The software will automatically fill in the Air Waybill No., and Airport of Destination o The Proper Shipping Name on FedEx’s generated DGD will look something like this: (Notice the “//” separating each section of the Shipping Name) UN3264, Corrosive, liquid, acidic, inorganic, n.o.s. (Perrhenic Acid Solution), 8, III // 1 Fiberboard Drum x 1.0 L // 852
- 57. IATA • Recapitulation for IATA o IATA contains all the information needed to make a domestic shipment o First: identify material in Section 4 – Identification (Blue Pages) • Read all Packaging Limitations, Special Provisions, etc. • Shipment by Air/Sea? • Reportable Quantity (RQ)? • Hazardous Substance? o Determine Proper Shipping Name o Quantity of Material being shipped o Class and P.G. of Hazardous Material
- 58. IATA • Recapitulation for IATA (continued) o Proper Packaging for Shipment • Review UN-Rating for packaging • Size limitations for inner packaging(s) and/or single packaging(s) o Label and Mark Package with appropriate stickers and information o Fill out and sign Dangerous Goods Declaration (DGD)
- 59. IATA • Remember Overpacks from the Section I – CFR? • Overpacks (cont’d) o Q Value (applicable to Air shipments only) • If multiple items are shipped together in a single overpack, and the items are deemed to be compatible, calculate the overpack’s “Q Value” • Q = n1/M1 + n2/M2 + … ≤ 1 • n1 = net quantity being shipped; M1 = maximum quantity allowed per Passenger Aircraft Packing Instruction, etc. • Q Value must not exceed 1 for any single overpack • Applicable to Air shipments only, see next Section for further information
- 60. IATA • Q Value example: o Want to ship: 10 kgs Ferrosilicon + 4 L Isobutyl Aldehyde (materials are compatible) • Must use P&C values • Q = n1/M1 + n2/M2 + … ≤ 1 • Q ≤ 1 in order to ship in overpack o Ferrosilicon has 25 kgs maximum on P&C o Isobutyl Aldehyde has 5 L maximum on P&C o Q = 10 kgs/25kgs + 4L/5L = 6/5 • Q Value exceeds 1, therefore, these two items cannot be put inside the same overpack
- 61. IATA • Overpacks (cont’d) o Overpack sticker must be present on the outside of the Overpack to signify that it is indeed an overpack o Be careful to acknowledge especially any Carrier variations on overpacks (some airlines don’t allow overpacks)
- 62. IATA • Before we conclude this portion of the training, let’s look at some hazardous materials that are in inventory at AAA Molybdenum and identify their labeling and shipping names o Sodium Hydroxide o Acids o H2O2 o Solvents o Propane
