§ 146.05-1

Shipments in violation of

the regulations in this part. No permitted explosives or other dangerous articles or substances and combustible liquids shall be tendered for shipments on board vessels except when in compliance with the provisions of the regulations in this part.

[Order 74, 6 FR. 268, Jan. 11, 1941]
§ 146.05-2 Acceptable shipments.

(a) Permitted explosives or other dangerous articles or substances may be offered to vessels for transportation and storage provided they are in proper condition for transportation or storage and are as defined and are packed, marked, labeled, described, certified and otherwise acceptable as provided for herein.

Methods of preparation, packing, testing and records, insofar as they effect safety in transportation shall be open to inspection by a duly authorized representative of the U.S. Coast Guard.

(b) When quantity limitations are specified in the regulations in this part by U. S. liquid measure or by avoirdupois weight, it is authorized that quantities measured by the metric system may be substituted, up to but not exceeding 1 gallon for liquids and 10 pounds for solids, on the basis of 1 liter per quart specified and 500 grams per pound specified.

[Order 74, 6 F.R. 268, Jan. 11, 1941, as amended by Order 129, 6 F.R. 3182, July 1, 1941; CGFR 47-35, 12 F.R. 4184, June 27, 1947] § 146.05-3

Prohibited packing.

(a) Outside containers having interior packages containing substances possess

ing different dangerous characteristics, the mixture of which is liable to cause evolution of heat or gas or produce a corrosive acting substance, shall not be offered for transportation or storage on board vessels to which the regulations in this part apply unless so packed as to prevent admixture.

(b) The offering for transportation of any package or container of any liquid, solid or gaseous material which under conditions incident to transportation may polymerize (combine or react with itself) or decompose so as to cause dangerous evolution of heat or gas is prohibited. Such materials may be offered for transportation when properly stabilized or inhibited.

(c) The offering for transportation of any package or container of any material which will cause a dangerous evolution of heat or gas under conditions normally incident to transportation is prohibited.

(d) The offering for transportation of any package containing a cigarette lighter charged with fuel and equipped with an ignition element, or any similar heating, lighting, or ignition device, or any self-lighting cigarette, is prohibited unless the design and method of packaging are such that functioning of the device is not possible incident to transportation.

§ 146.05-8 Non-specification containers.

Metal barrels or drums, wooden barrels or kegs, wooden boxes, fiberboard boxes, burlap bags, multiwall paper bags and bales comprise the type of non-specification containers that are permitted for certain regulated substances. The detailed regulations in the tables for the various classifications set forth the requirements governing such containers where permitted. The design and construction of non-specification containers must be such as to prevent the occurrence of defects that permit leakage of their contents and strong enough to stand, without failure, all shocks ordinarily incident to handling and stowage during transit. The shipper's attention is called to the regulation in the various tables which requires the officer in charge of loading the vessel to satisfy himself that a non-specification container offered for transportation, when containing a permitted substance, is sufficient in all respects for the purpose intended. [Order 74, 6 FR. 269, Jan. 11, 1941] § 146.05-9 Specification packaging for outside packages.
