2005 Model Commercial Driver’s License Manual  Column 7 lists the additional (special) provisions that  apply to this material. When there is an entry in this  column, you must refer to the federal regulations for  specific information. The numbers 1-6 in this column  mean the hazardous material is a poison inhalation  hazard (PIH). PIH materials have special  requirements for shipping papers, marking, and  placards.  Column 8 is a three-part column showing the section  numbers covering the packaging requirements for  each hazardous material.  Appendix A to 49 CFR 172.101 - The List of  Hazardous Substances and Reportable  Quantities. The DOT and the EPA want to know  about spills of hazardous substances. They are  named in the List of Hazardous Substances and  Reportable Quantities. See Figure 9.5. Column 3 of  the list shows each product's reportable quantity  (RQ). When these materials are being transported in  a reportable quantity or greater in one package, the  shipper displays the letters RQ on the shipping  paper and package. The letters RQ may appear  before or after the basic description. You or your  employer must report any spill of these materials,  which occurs in a reportable quantity.  If the words INHALATION HAZARD appear on the  shipping paper or package, the rules require display  of the POISON INHALATION HAZARD or POISON  GAS placards, as appropriate. These placards must  be used in addition to other placards, which may be  required by the product's hazard class. Always  display the hazard class placard and the POISON  INHALATION HAZARD placard, even for small  amounts.  Any bulk packages of a Marine Pollutant must  display the Marine Pollutant marking (white triangle  with a fish and an “X” through the fish). This marking  (it is not a placard) must also be displayed on the  outside of the vehicle. In addition, a notation must be  made on the shipping papers near the description of  the material: “Marine Pollutant”. Appendix B to 49 CFR 172.101 – List of Marine  Pollutants Appendix B is a listing of chemicals that are toxic to  marine life. For highway transportation, this list is  only used for chemicals in a container with a  capacity of 119 gallons or more without a placard or  label as specified by the HMR.
