2 <br /> BOX 9b. US DOT DESCRIPTION <br /> Can other information be added to Box 9b, other than DOT required information? <br /> No,with one exception: when the material being shipped is a non-Resource Conservation <br /> and Recovery Act(RCRA) (California only) hazardous waste that is not DOT regulated, <br /> the words "Non-RCRA Hazardous Waste, liquid" or "Non-RCRA Hazardous Waste, solid" <br /> may be used. Box 9b should not be used for adding density of waste, specific gravity, <br /> profile information, Emergency Response Guide (ERG) numbers, or any other <br /> information.. Box 14 can be used for any additional information that is required for the <br /> proper management or tracking of the materials/wastes being shipped. <br /> BOX 11,TOTAL QUANTITY <br /> Federal manifests prohibit the use of decimals or fractions in the quantity column, <br /> which conflicts with other agency (i.e. SCAQMD) requirements to use only cubic <br /> yards for asbestos waste on manifests. How should this be resolved on the manifest? <br /> The Federal rule regarding the shipment of asbestos,NESHAP, requires more information <br /> on the "waste disposal record" (i.e.transporter address and phone and list regulatory <br /> agency)than is required on a manifest. The Federal manifest regulations do allow for the <br /> addition of information on a manifest if this information is otherwise federally required. In <br /> this case, the additional information, such as the quantity in yards and transporter address, <br /> and regulatory agency information may be included in Box 14 of the manifest.. <br /> Federal manifesting prohibiting the use of decimals or fractions is in conflict with U.S. <br /> DOT regulation 49 CFR 172.202(a)(5)(i) for specifying explosives in grams (i.e., true <br /> quantity for explosives on shipping papers/manifests). How are wastes which are less <br /> than one pound to be reported? <br /> The DOT rule regarding the shipment of explosives (49 CFR 172.202(a)(5)(i)) states that <br /> for Class I materials (explosives), the quantity indicated on a shipping paper must be the <br /> net explosive mass. Because the manifest acts as both a waste shipping paper and a DOT <br /> shipping paper, additional information on a manifest, such as net explosive mass in a <br /> quantity of Class I explosives (e.g. 1 gram net explosive mass) may be included in Box 14 <br /> of the manifest while the container quantity (i.e.-5 gallons ) would be marked in boxes 10- <br /> 11-12. <br /> BOX 13, WASTE CODES <br /> Previously, the Appendix XII to Chapter 11 instructed the use of a restricted waste <br /> code when more than one state waste code applies. Did the new regulations make that <br /> requirement clear for manifest purposes? <br /> 94 of 98 <br />
