49 CFR Ch. I (10–1–18 Edition) 

§ 172.101 

(i) 

Column 8: Packaging authorizations. 

Columns 8A, 8B and 8C specify the ap-
plicable sections for exceptions, non- 
bulk packaging requirements and bulk 
packaging requirements, respectively, 
in part 173 of this subchapter. Columns 
8A, 8B and 8C are completed in a man-
ner which indicates that ‘‘§ 173.’’ pre-
cedes the designated numerical entry. 
For example, the entry ‘‘202’’ in Col-
umn 8B associated with the proper 
shipping name ‘‘Gasoline’’ indicates 
that for this material conformance to 
non-bulk packaging requirements pre-
scribed in § 173.202 of this subchapter is 
required. When packaging require-
ments are specified, they are in addi-
tion to the standard requirements for 
all packagings prescribed in § 173.24 of 
this subchapter and any other applica-
ble requirements in subparts A and B 
of part 173 of this subchapter. 

(1) Exceptions. Column 8A contains 

exceptions from some of the require-
ments of this subchapter. The ref-
erenced exceptions are in addition to 
those specified in subpart A of part 173 
and elsewhere in this subchapter. A 
‘‘None’’ in this column means no pack-
aging exceptions are authorized, except 
as may be provided by special provi-
sions in Column 7. 

(2) Non-bulk packaging. Column 8B 

references the section in part 173 of 
this subchapter which prescribes pack-
aging requirements for non-bulk pack-
agings. A ‘‘None’’ in this column means 
non-bulk packagings are not author-
ized, except as may be provided by spe-
cial provisions in Column 7. Each ref-
erence in this column to a material 
which is a hazardous waste or a haz-
ardous substance, and whose proper 
shipping name is preceded in Column 1 
of the Table by the letter ‘‘A’’ or ‘‘W’’, 
is modified to include ‘‘§ 173.203’’ or 
‘‘§ 173.213’’, as appropriate for liquids 
and solids, respectively, on those occa-
sions when the material is offered for 
transportation or transported by a 
mode in which its transportation is not 
otherwise subject to the requirements 
of this subchapter. 

(3) 

Bulk packaging. 

Column (8C) speci-

fies the section in part 173 of this sub-
chapter that prescribes packaging re-
quirements for bulk packagings, sub-
ject to the limitations, requirements, 
and additional authorizations of Col-

umns (7) and (8B). A ‘‘None’’ in Column 
(8C) means bulk packagings are not au-
thorized, except as may be provided by 
special provisions in Column (7) and in 
packaging authorizations Column (8B). 
Additional authorizations and limita-
tions for use of UN portable tanks are 
set forth in Column 7. For each ref-
erence in this column to a material 
that is a hazardous waste or a haz-
ardous substance, and whose proper 
shipping name is preceded in Column 1 
of the Table by the letter ‘‘A’’ or ‘‘W’’ 
and that is offered for transportation 
or transported by a mode in which its 
transportation is not otherwise subject 
to the requirements of this subchapter: 

(4) For a hazardous material which is 

specifically named in the Table and 
whose packaging sections specify pack-
agings not applicable to the form of the 
material (e.g., packaging specified is 
for solid material and the material is 
being offered for transportation in a 
liquid form) the following table should 
be used to determine the appropriate 
packaging section:

§ 173.243 

(5) 

Cylinders. 

For cylinders, both non- 

bulk and bulk packaging authoriza-
tions are set forth in Column (8B). Not-
withstanding a designation of ‘‘None’’ 
in Column (8C), a bulk cylinder may be 
used when specified through the sec-
tion reference in Column (8B). 

(j) 

Column 9: Quantity limitations. 

Col-

umns 9A and 9B specify the maximum 
quantities that may be offered for 
transportation in one package by pas-
senger-carrying aircraft or passenger- 
carrying rail car (Column 9A) or by 
cargo aircraft only (Column 9B), sub-
ject to the following: 

(1) ‘‘Forbidden’’ means the material 

may not be offered for transportation 
or transported in the applicable mode 
of transport. 

(2) The quantity limitation is ‘‘net’’ 

except where otherwise specified, such 
as for ‘‘Consumer commodity’’ which 
specifies ‘‘30 kg gross.’’
