Title: Noxious Liquid Substances, Obsolete Hazardous Materials in Bulk, and Current Hazardous Materials in Bulk (USCG-2000-7079) | |
Abstract: The Coast Guard revises rules on carriage of hazardous materials in bulk, treating the rules in three parts: First, the Coast Guard revises its rules on Noxious Liquid Substances (NLSs) to include substances recently authorized for carriage by the Coast Guard or added to the Chemical Codes of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and by making minor technical and editorial changes based on the actions taken in part C. Second, the Coast Guard revises its rules, tables, and lists on carriage of hazardous materials in bulk by deleting from its rules, tables, and lists commodities that are no longer liquid cargoes transportable in bulk, and by canceling the classifications of obsolete commodities not included in those rules, tables, and lists. Third, the Coast Guard revises its rules on carriage of hazardous materials in bulk by adding cargoes recently authorized for carriage by the Coast Guard or added to the Chemical Codes of the IMO and by making minor technical and editorial changes. This three-part revision will update the tables of hazardous materials transportable in bulk and better inform persons shipping any such materials of the materials' compatibility and of special handling requirements. This project supports the Coast Guard's strategic goal of marine safety. | |
