  • 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.

  • Pressure Dependence of Chlorine NQR in Strontium Chlorate and Barium Chlorate Monohydrate * V
    Pressure Dependence of Chlorine NQR in Strontium Chlorate and Barium Chlorate Monohydrate * V. Krishnan, T. V. Krishna Moorthy, and J. Ramakrishna Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India Z. Naturforsch. 41 a, 3 3 8 -3 4 0 (1986); revised version received October 12, 1985 The pressure dependence of the 35C1-NQR frequencies in barium chlorate monohydrate and strontium chlorate, has been investigated up to 7000 kg cm-2. Ba(C10 3)2 • H20 shows a single 35C1-NQR line at 29.337 MHz (T = 297 K. p = 1 bar). v(35Cl) increases linearly with pressure in the range studied, with (l/v)(Sv/Sp)r = + 0.409 x 10 -6 kg -1 cm 2 which is much smaller than observed in N aC 103 and KC103. Sr(C103) 2 also gave a single 35C1-NQR frequency at 20.105 MHz (T = 297 K, p = 1 bar). The pressure dependence is very small and negative in this case. The data in both cases have been analysed to obtain the volume dependence of the torsional frequency. It is pointed out that explicit pressure effects on the electric field gradient have to be taken into account to provide an explanation for the observed pressure dependence of v( 35Cl). Introduction Results a) Barium Chlorate Monohydrate Chlorates are interesting in that they contain a partially covalent C103 group within an ionic lattice. The 35C1 NQR frequency in Ba(C103)2 • H20 was In an effort to understand the effect or pressure on measured at room temperature as a function of metal chlorates, we have taken up an NQR inves­ pressure up to a maximum pressure of 7 kbar.

Title III of SARA, known as the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Act, sets requirements for hazardous chemicals, improves the public’s access to information on chemical hazards in their community, and establishes reporting responsibilities for facilities that store, use, and/or release hazardous chemicals. RQ = Reportable Quantity. An amount entered in this column indicates the substance may be reportable under §304 of SARA Title III. Amount is in pounds, a "K" represents 1,000 pounds. An asterisk following the Reporting Quantity (i.e. 5000*) will indicate that reporting of releases is not required if the diameter of the pieces of the solid metal released is equal to or exceeds 100 micrometers (0.004 inches). TPQ = Threshold Planning Quantity. An amount entered in this column reads in pounds and indicates the substance is an Extremely Hazardous Substance (EHS), and may require reporting under sections 302, 304 & 312 of SARA Title III. A TPQ with a slash (/) indicates a "split" TPQ. The number to the left of the slash is the substance's TPQ only if the substance is present in the form of a fine powder (particle size less than 100 microns), molten or in solution, or reacts with water (NFPA rating = 2, 3 or 4). The TPQ is 10,000 lb if the substance is present in other forms. A star (*) in the 313 column= The substance is reportable under §313 of SARA Title III.
