However, any economic benefits gained through harmonization of the HMR with updated international consensus standards (including, but not limited to, the 22nd revised edition of the UN Model Regulations, the 20232024 ICAO Technical Instructions and amendment 4122 of the IMDG Code) governing shipping of hazardous materials would not be realized. In paragraph (v)(2), incorporate by reference the 2022 edition of the IMDG Code, Incorporating Amendment 4122 (English Edition), to replace Incorporating Amendment 4020, 2020 Edition, which is currently referenced in 171.22; 171.23; 171.25; 172.101; 172.202; 172.203; 172.401; 172.407; 172.502; 172.519; 172.602; 173.21; 173.56; 176.2; 176.5; 176.11; 176.27; 176.30; 176.83; 176.84; 176.140; 176.720; 176.906; 178.3; and 178.274. The ICAO DGP agreed that these provisions were appropriate given that environmentally hazardous substances pose a very low hazard in air and that non-flammable, non-toxic gases without subsidiary hazard are already allowed on both passenger and cargo aircraft as well as certain other articles containing similar gases. Section 173.27 outlines general requirements for transportation by aircraft, including requirements and limitations for hazardous materials transported in limited quantities. (iii) When packages are placed in an overpack, the lithium battery mark shall either be clearly visible through the overpack or be reproduced on the outside of the overpack, and the overpack shall be marked with the word OVERPACK. The lettering of the OVERPACK mark shall be at least 12 mm (0.47 inches) high. battery-operated equipment such as diving lamps and soldering equipment) as checked or carry-on baggage and with the approval of the operator of the aircraft. However, with the current construction of the provisions for small batteries in Packing Instructions 966, 967, 969, and 970, the general Part 5 overpack provisions do not apply, which could lead to packages being unsecured or even damaged by being unrestrained within an overpack. safety standard for the manufacture of UN cylinders. Friction-type closures must be secured by positive means. Currently, ISO 98091 is referenced in 178.37 as an approved methodology by which to perform bend tests, instead of the required flattening test specified in paragraph (j). Incorporate by reference the third edition of ISO 98092:2019(E), PHMSA also proposes to modify the packaging limits aboard cargo aircraft for three battery entries: UN2794, Batteries, wet, filled with acid, electric storage; UN2795, Batteries, wet, filled with alkali, electric storage; and UN3292, Batteries, containing sodium. Specifically, these changes would limit the quantity per packaging to 400 kg, as there is currently no limit for these items. Paragraph (c)(3) specifies hazard communication requirements pertaining to the use of the lithium battery mark. If the results of Test No. 172.315(a) and (b)). without plasticizer, with or without pigment. These changes would remove the applicability of the limited quantity exceptions for these hazardous materials to correct an inconsistency regarding solid desensitized explosives. The new packing provision added in the 22nd revised edition of the UN Model Regulations allows for pressure receptacles containing mixtures of fluorine and inert gases (including nitrogen) to have higher working pressures by allowing for consideration of the partial pressures exerted by the other constituents in the mixture, rather than limiting the pressure in the receptacle based on fluorine alone. The program action plan should ideally be revised based on the findings of this exercise. Hazardous Materials Shipping Papers & Emergency Response Information.
