Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over a 12-year period, the Safety Board has identified and recommended corrective measures for the many unsafe conditions it has identified in the shipment of hazardous materials, but too often, action necessary to remedy the identified problems has been delayed -- sometimes for years. Delayed correction of identified safety problems perpetuates substantial losses, both economic and personal, to shippers, carriers, employees of the transportation mode, emergency response personnel, and the public. The Safety Board reviewed hazardous materials legislation and regulations promulgated by the Federal government, analyzed the DOT hazardous materials safety programs, and reviewed Safety Board reports on hazardous materials accidents and its recommendations for corrective actions. This report identifies reasons for past delays in implementing corrective safety improvements by DOT and identifies changes needed in DOT's management of the hazardous materials transportation program to bring about more timely correction of identified safety hazards which is essential for reducing losses in life, injury, and property damage.

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.
