4. DOT Basics HazMat Definition: Title 49 CFR, Section 171.8 defines a hazardous material as a material that is “capable of posing an unreasonable risk to health, safety, and property when transported in commerce.” A material is considered “hazardous” if it meets one or more of the hazardous class definitions in the hazmat regulations and/or is a hazardous substance, marine pollutant, or elevated temperature material.

5. DOT Basics Hazard Classes: Class 1, Explosives – Division 1-6 Class 2, Gases – Division 1-3 Class 3, Flammable and Combustible Liquids Class 4, Solids – Division 1-3 Class 5, Oxidizers and Organic Peroxides – Div. 1-2 Class 6, Poisonous Materials and Infectious Substances – Div. 1-2 Class 7, Radioactive Material Class 8, Corrosive Material Class 9, Miscellaneous Hazardous Materials

18. Hazardous Materials Table Column 2 – Hazardous Description And Proper Shipping Name Note: Proper shipping names are in ROMAN type not in italics. Also, if you cannot find the name of your hazardous material(s), it may not be hazardous. If is it, then select a generic or N.O.S. (not otherwise specified) name that most accurately describes your hazmat.

19. Hazardous Materials Table Column 3 – Hazard Class or Division Note: Make sure that the one listed for the selected proper shipping name matches the material being transported. This also helps determine the labeling and packaging requirements.
