Kenco Transportation Management will Host Hazmat Training Seminars April 5-7
21 March 2011
Kenco Transportation Management will host seminars on the transportation and handling of hazardous materials on April 5-7. These seminars have been developed in response to a need by industry, carrier, and local government for accurate and current hazardous material information. The courses offer a comprehensive database for dealing with the complexities of hazardous material transportation by truck, air and water. Federal regulations in effect mandate significant penalties for noncompliance. The regulations under 49 CFR 172.700-704, International Air Transport Association and International Maritime Dangerous Goods guidelines require that employers assure training of all employees working with the transportation of hazardous materials. These seminars are designed so that employees of the private and public sectors can acquire knowledge and skill in the handling and transportation of hazardous materials by the various transportation modes at a reasonable cost.
