Section 172.101

49 CFR Ch. I (10-1-18 Edition)

(i) Column 8: Packaging authorizations.
Columns 8A, 8B and 8C specify the applicable sections for exceptions, nonbulk packaging requirements and bulk
packaging requirements, respectively,
in part 173 of this subchapter. Columns
8A, 8B and 8C are completed in a manner which indicates that  - Section 173. -  precedes the designated numerical entry.
For example, the entry  - 202 -  in Column 8B associated with the proper
shipping name  - Gasoline -  indicates
that for this material conformance to
non-bulk packaging requirements prescribed in Section 173.202 of this subchapter is
required. When packaging requirements are specified, they are in addition to the standard requirements for
all packagings prescribed in Section 173.24 of
this subchapter and any other applicable requirements in subparts A and B
of part 173 of this subchapter.
(1) Exceptions. Column 8A contains
exceptions from some of the requirements of this subchapter. The referenced 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 packaging exceptions are authorized, except
as may be provided by special provisions in Column 7.
(2) Non-bulk packaging. Column 8B
references the section in part 173 of
this subchapter which prescribes packaging requirements for non-bulk packagings. A  - None -  in this column means
non-bulk packagings are not authorized, except as may be provided by special provisions in Column 7. Each reference in this column to a material
which is a hazardous waste or a hazardous substance, and whose proper
shipping name is preceded in Column 1
of the Table by the letter  - A -  or  - W - ,
is modified to include  - Section 173.203 -  or
 - Section 173.213 - , as appropriate for liquids
and solids, respectively, on those occasions 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) specifies the section in part 173 of this subchapter that prescribes packaging requirements for bulk packagings, subject to the limitations, requirements,
and additional authorizations of Col-

umns (7) and (8B). A  - None -  in Column
(8C) means bulk packagings are not authorized, except as may be provided by
special provisions in Column (7) and in
packaging authorizations Column (8B).
Additional authorizations and limitations for use of UN portable tanks are
set forth in Column 7. For each reference in this column to a material
that is a hazardous waste or a hazardous 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 packagings 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:

(5) Cylinders. For cylinders, both nonbulk and bulk packaging authorizations are set forth in Column (8B). Notwithstanding a designation of  - None - 
in Column (8C), a bulk cylinder may be
used when specified through the section reference in Column (8B).
(j) Column 9: Quantity limitations. Columns 9A and 9B specify the maximum
quantities that may be offered for
transportation in one package by passenger-carrying aircraft or passengercarrying rail car (Column 9A) or by
cargo aircraft only (Column 9B), subject 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. -
