Fedex Ground Hazardous Materials Shipping Guide Is Intended to Simplify Title 49 CFR
FedEx Ground Package Systems Inc. is committed to the safe transportation of hazardous materials. It is very important that each person engaged in the transportation of hazardous materials has the proper training and is thoroughly familiar with the Title 49CFR (Code of Federal Regulations) and/or USPS Publication 52. This guide is intended only to assist you in your preparation of hazardous materials shipped via FedEx Ground Package Systems Inc. It is the shipper’s responsibility to ensure each hazardous material package is in compliance with applicable Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) regulations and FedEx Ground Package Systems Inc. requirements. Failure to comply with these regulations and requirements may subject the shipper and carrier to fines and penalties. Improperly prepared hazmat packages or documentation may be subject to an additional charge(s) due to the unexpected hanlding associated with these shipments. Due to the changing nature of D.O.T. regulations and other information, it is impossible to guarantee absolute accuracy of the material contained in this guide. FedEx Ground Package Systems Inc., therefore, cannot assume any responsibility for omissions, errors, misprinting, or ambiguity contained within this guide and shall not be held liable in any degree for any loss or injury caused by such omission or error presented in this publication. Shippers should consult the most current version of the hazardous material regulations. Training is mandatory for those shipping hazardous materials, including limited quantity and other exceptions. The www.shipsafeshipsmart.com battery and hazmat training programs offer shippers an economical source of basic ground battery and/or hazardous materials shipping as well as addressing FedEx Ground specific issues. -

Annex 1. Management Criteria for Substances of Environmental Concern (Automobile Products)
Annex 1. Management Criteria for Substances of Environmental Concern (Automobile Products) 1. Substances subject to management and management classifications We have adopted GADSL for our Management Criteria for Substances of Environmental Concern (Automobile Products). The management classifications and definitions for "prohibited substances" and "declarable substances" are shown in Table 1. [Precautions for use] The specific chemical substances within GADSL only enumerate some of the chemical substances that fall under their class of chemical substances. It does not regulate every chemical substance that falls under said class of chemical substances. The Japanese translation has been included for reference purposes, but there are some substances which do not have official Japanese names. The latest information on GADSL must be obtained and confirmed from the following website. [GADSL] The Global Automotive Declarable Substance List (GADSL) released by the Global Automotive Stakeholder Group (GASG) http://www.gadsl.org/ Table 1. Stanley's management classifications and definitions The reported substances contained within vehicle materials and parts have been indicated as either "P" or "D" via the following definitions.
