A "Hazardous Material" is any material that, when it escapes its container, could cause harm to life or health, the environment, or property. Examples of hazardous materials include flammable and combustible materials, corrosives, explosives, oxidizers, poisons, materials that react violently with water, radioactive materials, biological materials, etc. Note that a "Hazardous Material" is not the same as a "Toxic Waste".

Hazardous Material spills MUST be reported to the U.S. Department of Transportation on DOT Form F 5800.1. If the spill is severe it may require the spiller to contact the National Response Center at 800-424-8802 immediately.

There are other training sources close to your railroad that probably are more than willing to help. Your customers are a great resource. They are required to train their employees on the hazards of hazmat handling and you can ask them to permit your employee to sit in on their sessions. Local fire departments, rescue squads and police department are other good resources to use.

This is determined by the Department of Transportation in 49 Code of Federal Regulations part 172.101 hazmat table or in 49 CFR 173.115-156.
