NAVSUP PUB 573, Storage and Handling of Hazardous Materials DLAI 4145.11 TM 38-410 NAVSUP PUB 573 AFJMAN 23-209 MCO 4450.12A DLSC-LDD 13 Jan 99 STORAGE AND HANDLING OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS [This publication has been revised significantly and must be reviewed in its entirety.] A. REFERENCES 1. TM 38-410/NAVSUP PUB 573/AFR 69-9/MCO 4450-12/DLAM 4145.11, May 92 2. DoD 4140.1-R, DoD Material Management Regulation B: PURPOSE. This instruction: 1. Supersedes reference A1. 2. Implements the policy established in reference A2. 3. Establishes uniform procedures for the receipt, storage, and handling of hazardous materials and wastes by Department of Defense (DoD) components, installations, and activities. It is to be used in conjunction with pertinent Service-specific and DoD hazardous materials procedures, regulations, manuals, and guidance documents to support safe, effective, and environmentally sound management of hazardous materials throughout their life-cycle 4. Serves as a source of technical know-how regarding the management of hazardous materials, especially for warehouse personnel. For this reason it touches on a number of topics, such as transportation and safety and health, that are covered in other DoD documents. For these areas it is a source of information for knowledge and general awareness to assist these personnel in performing their jobs more effectively and is not intended to replace or supersede pertinent DoD documents. 5. The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1974, as amended in 1996, affects this manual. C. APPLICABILITY AND SCOPE 1 1. The provisions of this instruction are applicable to the Department of the Army (DA), the Department of the Air Force, the Department of the Navy, the Marine Corps, and the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) which will be referred to collectively as "DoD Components". In addition, this instruction applies to overseas DoD locations. When there is a conflict between the provisions of this instruction and the host nation, the more stringent should be applied. 2. Ammunition and explosives, defined as United Nations (UN) Class 1 items regardless of Division, form a unique subset of all hazardous materials. Receipt, storage, and handling of ammunition and explosives at DoD activities are governed by DoD 6055.9-STD, DoD Ammunition and Explosives safety manuals and regulations. However, general broad procedures applicable to the storage of ammunition and explosives are provided in Chapter 10 for reference and to assist warehousing personnel in performing their jobs more effectively. 3. This publication may be supplemented at the installation or activity level by written local procedures, regulations, instructions, etc. When more stringent service/agency policies and procedures exist, they should be followed as appropriate. D. DEFINITIONS. See Appendix H of this publication. E. PROCEDURES 1. The procedures described in this publication are written around the requirements as specified in the appropriate Codes of Federal Regulations and should be followed as a minimum. More specific or more stringent regulations, procedures, or instructions established by DoD components should be followed as appropriate. 2. Because this publication is written from a broad hazardous materials management perspective, the procedures as they apply to areas such as the shipment of hazardous materials, personal protective equipment, occupational safety and health programs, and environmental programs are general and should be viewed as an initial starting point and supplemented with the appropriate service/agency regulations and procedures. 3. When necessary, DoD components may authorize temporary deviations to this instruction when compliance with mandatory provisions is not practical or the deviation is required as an emergency measure. Temporary deviations will not exceed 90 days unless appropriately authorized by the DoD component. DoD components may authorize deviations from the mandatory provisions of this directive provided they do not violate environmental, occupational, safety and health, or domestic and host nation laws and regulations. Any authorized deviations which may extend beyond 90 days will be forwarded to Defense Logistics Support Command, Attn: DLSC-LDD, 8725 John J. Kingman Rd., Suite 2533, Ft. Belvoir, VA 22060-6221, for a determination as to whether or not it should be incorporated into this publication. 2 4. Organization and Use. a. Organization. This publication is organized into chapter and appendices. Each chapter covers a major subject and is divided into sections. A table of contents reflects the scope of subjects included. b.

  • Chapter 4: HAZARD COMMUNICATION
    Chapter 4: HAZARD COMMUNICATION The text of this chapter represents the agreement reached on a harmonised hazard communication system as part of the work on the GHS, with minor editorial changes. Additional explanatory text has been added in some sections in order to provide guidance for the reader on how to interpret the GHS agreed text. Where this is the case, the text is italicised and placed in a box to differentiate it from the agreed GHS text. OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE 1. One of the objective of the work on the GHS has been the development of a harmonised hazard communication system including labelling, safety data sheets and easily understandable symbols, based on the classification criteria developed by the focal points within the IOMC Co-ordinating Group for the Harmonisation of Chemical Classifications Systems, CG/HCCS. This work has been carried out under the auspices of the ILO, by the ILO Working Group on Hazard Communication. The specific Terms of Reference and Membership of the Working Group are provided in Annex 1. In addition the principles contained in the IOMC CG/HCCS Terms of Reference and the document “Description and Further Clarification of the Anticipated Application of the GHS (also referred to as “The Scope Document”) also applied to the work on harmonisation of hazard communication (see Chapter 2). Application of the Harmonised Hazard Communication System 2.The harmonised system for hazard communication includes the appropriate labelling tools to convey information about each of the hazard classes and categories in the GHS. The use of symbols, signal words or hazard statements other than those which have been assigned to each of the GHS hazard classes and categories would be contrary to harmonisation.

  • Hazcom Training Requirements Due Dec. 1, 2013
    This presentation reviews the new chemical container labeling and safety data sheet requirements under the new Hazard Communication standard. Reference information about the labeling and safety data sheet format can be found on www.osha.gov; specifically on the hazard communication Web page at www.osha.gov/dsg/hazcom. 1 (Read slide) The GHS manual that is accessed from the website provides additional detail about the system for chemical classifications and hazard communication. The purpose of the new HazCom standard is to ensure the hazards of all chemicals produced or imported are classified and information concerning the classified hazards is transmitted to employers and employees in a more informative and consistent manner based on the criteria established in the GHS. 2 The globally harmonized system is a…(read 1st two paragraphs on slide) The GHS is the culmination of more than a decade of work. There were many individuals involved from a multitude of countries, international organizations, and stakeholder organizations. There work spanned a wide range of expertise, from toxicology to fire protection, and ultimately required extensive good will and the willingness to compromise, in order to achieve a system that provides a single, globally harmonized system, to address classification of hazardous substances and mixtures, and the communication of these hazards through revised labeling and SDS’s. The new system is being implemented throughout the world by countries including Canada, the European Union, China, Australia, and Japan. Other U.S. Agencies including the Department of Transportation (DOT), Environmental Protection Agency, and the Consumer Product Safety Commission actively participated in developing the GHS.

  • Bhopal Disaster
    Bhopal disaster From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Bhopal memorial for those killed and disabled by the 1984 toxic gas release. The Bhopal disaster also known as Bhopal Gas Tragedy was a gas leak accident in India, considered one of the world's worst industrial catastrophes.[1] It occurred on the night of December 2–3, 1984 at the Union Carbide India Limited (UCIL) pesticide plant in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India. A leak of methyl isocyanate gas and other chemicals from the plant resulted in the exposure of hundreds of thousands of people. Estimates vary on the death toll. The official immediate death toll was 2,259 and the government of Madhya Pradesh has confirmed a total of 3,787 deaths related to the gas release.[2] Others estimate 3,000 died within weeks and another 8,000 have since died from gas-related diseases.[3][4] A government affidavit in 2006 stated the leak caused 558,125 injuries including 38,478 temporary partial and approximately 3,900 severely and permanently disabling injuries.[5] UCIL was the Indian subsidiary of Union Carbide Corporation (UCC). Indian Government controlled banks and the Indian public held 49.1 percent ownership share. In 1994, the Supreme Court of India allowed UCC to sell its 50.9 percent share. Union Carbide sold UCIL, the Bhopal plant operator, to Eveready Industries India Limited in 1994. The Bhopal plant was later sold to McLeod Russel (India) Ltd. Dow Chemical Company purchased UCC in 2001. Civil and criminal cases are pending in the United States District Court, Manhattan and the District Court of Bhopal, India, involving UCC, UCIL employees, and Warren Anderson, UCC CEO at the time of the disaster.[6][7] In June 2010, seven ex-employees, including the former UCIL chairman, were convicted in Bhopal of causing death by negligence and sentenced to two years imprisonment and a fine of about $2,000 each, the maximum punishment allowed by law.
