But what exceptions exist in the regulations if your class 9 Environmentally Hazardous substance is classified as a marine pollutant? Let\u2019s take a look at the various regulations and look at some of the exceptions you may encounter. Keep in mind <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">these exceptions only apply to a substance that meets the criteria for a marine pollutant and does not exempt you from any other regulations. For example, if a marine pollutant is also a Class 3 Flammable Liquid, it may be subject to the marine pollutant exception; however, it would still need to be shipped regulated as a Class 3 Flammable Liquid.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>49CFR\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You will notice a common denominator in the wording of the 49CFR, IATA, and the IMDG code for the following exceptions. They all say \u201care not subject to any other provisions (regulations) of.\u201d Essentially, what this means is, if you meet the criteria of the exemption, you don\u2019t need to follow the regulations, with a few conditions that apply.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, the<\/span><b> 49CFR 171.4 (c) (2) <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">states that marine pollutants shipped in <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">single or combination packaging<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0containing a net quantity per single or <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">inner packaging of 5 L or less for <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">liquids or having a net mass of 5 kg or less for solids, are not subject to any other requirements of this subchapter provided the packaging<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> meets the general requirements in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cornell.edu\/cfr\/text\/49\/173.24\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">173.24<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and 173.24a. As long as your packaging meets the requirements of 173.24 and 173.24A, and you follow the net quantity limits of the exemption, you can essentially ship this un-regulated.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now keep in mind, this exception does not apply to marine pollutants<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that are a hazardous waste or a hazardous substances<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In addition, as I mentioned before, in the case of marine pollutants<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> also meeting the criteria for inclusion in another hazard class<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, all provisions of this subchapter relevant to any additional hazards continue to apply.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>IATA and IMDG Code<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both the IATA and IMDG Code have similar exceptions to the one in the 49CFR. In IATA at Special Provision A197, it states that when <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">these substances are transported in single or combination packaging containing a net quantity per single or inner packaging of 5 L or less for liquids or having a net weight per single or inner packaging of 5 kg or less for solids, they are not subject to any other provisions of these regulations provided the packaging meet the general provisions of 5.0.2.4.1, 5.0.2.6.1.1 and 5.0.2.8. In addition, the IMDG code <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">at 2.10.2.7<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> pretty much says the same thing, with the exception of<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the packaging having to meet the general provisions sections 4.1.1.1, 4.1.1.2, and 4.1.1.4 to 4.1.1.8 of IMDG Code. More or less, the general packaging provisions that must be met by IMDG Code and IATA are similar in that both require the packaging to be of a high enough quality to withstand shocks and loading of normal transport, must be compatible with the hazardous substance, and allowing enough ullage (unfilled space) in the containers. In both cases, all provisions of the regulations relevant to any additional hazard classes would continue to apply.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What about TDGR?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In terms of Marine pollutants, TDGR does have some sections that mention specific exceptions regarding marine pollutants. For example, section <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4.22 (2) states t<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">he marine pollutant mark is not required to be displayed when marine pollutants are <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">on board a road vehicle or railway vehicle on a ro-ro ship or if<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> it is <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">contained in<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a small means of containment and are in a quantity that is less than or equal to 5 L for a liquid marine pollutant or 5 kg for a solid marine pollutant<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The placard and UN number are not required to be displayed for substances identified as marine pollutants in subparagraph 2.43 (b) (ii) when the marine pollutant mark is not required to be displayed in accordance with subsection (2) mentioned above. In addition, the marking isn\u2019t required on a large means of containment <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">that is less than or equal to 500 kg and does not contain<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Class 1, Explosives, other than explosives included in Class 1.4, Class 5.2, Organic Peroxides, Class 6.1, Toxic Substances, or Class 7, Radioactive Materials.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Transport Canada also has a Special provision (SP99) in place if you are shipping UN 3077 or UN 3082 by ground that exempts you from the TDG regulations except Part 1 (General Provision) and Part 2 (Classifications) if you are shipping under 450 Liters or 450 KG on a road vehicle or railway vehicle. This applies as long as general packaging conditions are met that are mentioned in the special provision.
