1 FM 55-5 FM 55-5 APPENDIX E DOT CHART 0 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS MARKING, LABELING & PLACARDING GUIDE This appendix contains facsimiles of hazardous materials warning labels, placards, and package markings and guidelines for their use as set forth in DOT Chart 0. Full-color copies of DOT Chart 0 can be obtained by calling , extension, or writing OHMIT/DHM-5, Washington, DC Regulations and requirements governing the transport of hazardous materials by all modes of transportation can be found in 9 CFR, Parts For detailed information and to determine compliance, refer to that and other applicable publications. GENERAL GUIDELINES ON THE USE OF WARNING LABELS AND PLACARDS LABELS See Figure E-, page E-, for hazardous materials warning labels. The following guidelines apply to the use of warning labels: On and after October 99, those labels in boxes marked TRANSITION-00 will not be authorized for use under 9 CFR, Part 7, Subpart E. (NOTE: These labels may be used IF they were affixed to a package offered for transportation and transported prior to October 00, and the package was filled with hazardous materials prior to October 99.) For classes,,,, 5, 6 and 8, text indicating a hazard (e.g., ) IS NOT required on a label. The label must otherwise conform to Subpart E (Section 7.05). Any person who offers a hazardous material for transportation MUST label the package, if required [Section 7.00(a)]. The Hazardous Materials Table (Section 7.0) identifies the proper label(s) for the hazardous material listed. When required, labels must be printed on or affixed to the surface of the package near the proper shipping name [Section 7.06(a)]. When two or more labels are required, they must be displayed next to each other [Section 7.06(c)]. Labels may be affixed to packages when not required by regulations, provided each label represents a hazard of the material contained in the package (Section 7.0). See 9 CFR, Part 7, Subpart E for complete labeling regulations. E- E-
