31. LABELING
Hazardous Material Warning labels are color-coded so that the hazards can be quickly recognized.
Labels correspond to the placards that must appear on bulk packaging, freight containers, transport vehicles or rail cars that contain a hazardous material.
Labels are NOT required on bulk packages with placard(s).

32. LABELING

33. LABELING
Labels must include both the hazard class and the division of hazard, if required, according to the Hazardous Materials Table (Col. 6).
Example: 5.1 for Oxidizer
The first label listed is the primary hazard of the material. This label MUST contain the hazard class number.
Additional labels indicate subsidiary hazards. These labels DO NOT contain the hazard class number.
Labels must be visible. Example: Stretch wrapped skids of items.

34. LABELING

35. LABELING

36. LABELING - QUESTIONS How do you recognize a hazard from the label?

You can use two (or more) labels on one package (T/F).
Labels do not need to be visible on all materials shipped as long as information is on the paperwork and the driver understands what he is shipping (T/F)
Labels are NOT required on bulk packages (T/F)

44. LOADING AND SECUREMENT
The responsibility for complying with the provisions for loading, storage, and transportation of hazardous materials generally lies with the carrier.
HOWEVER
You know more about RBP chemicals than the driver does.
There are two requirements that are of special importance.
It’s up to the shipper (Us, RBP) to ensure the hazardous materials are properly loaded.

45. LOADING AND SECUREMENT
SEPARATION DISTANCES:
These are established for transporting radioactive materials and are also required for people and cargo compartment dividing partitions.
SEGREGATION:
Certain hazardous materials cannot be carried on the same load. (cyanides or cyanide mixtures cannot be transported with acids.)
A Segregation Table provides a reference for segregating certain hazardous materials.

46. LOADING AND SECUREMENT

47. LOADING - QUESTIONS
It’s up to the driver to make sure hazardous materials shipped by RBP are properly loaded, secured, and placarded? (T/F)
Any chemical can be shipped with any other chemical (T/F)
