Hazardous Material Management (HAZMAT) in the United States

TOPIC: Hazardous Material Management (Hazmat): The Perspective of Transportation Carriers on the Environment.

Every country has established a regulatory body under government oversight to regulate and ensure safe and secure transportation of hazardous material to industry, consumers, and the environment by every means of transport. The general public is not aware of the unique needs of these kinds of material. After all, they are called hazardous materials for a reason. Transportation carriers need to ensure they comprehend the laws and remain side-by-side of industry changes when hauling and transporting hazardous materials. Also, carriers must be abreast of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) safety guidelines with proper training of their employees on hazardous materials transportation to safeguard the environment. Therefore, what roles transportation carriers play in proper storage and disposal of hazardous materials to mitigate environmental degradation?
