Have you read what you just send? "Not design for transportation" in my world tanker truck is design for transport
-
reviewing my BOL provided by the pickup company (not my carriers bol). In commodity description says hazmat load and "see section 2(e) of MNMFC Item 360" no numbers or codes or anything....

If the following conditions occur, you are responsible for obtaining a tanker endorsement on your CDL:
1 Your cargo includes liquid or gaseous individual containers larger than 119 gallon capacity.
2 The containers are loaded, and not empty.
3 The total combined volume in those containers exceeds 1,000 gallons
1. yes 2. no 3. no
1 no= no endorsement required.... -
in summary what must my BOL state and cover? I have it in front of me now, only sats hazmat load and brief commodity description
x1Heavy Thanks this. -
Your question have reached the end of my ability to explain or answer.
This link takes you to a PDF with many beautiful pages both in words and pictures about how specifically to handle BOL in a HM environment. I encourage you to get a pot of coffee and enjoy this resource. It's really good.
You will want to pull a PDF reader, either Open Office from source forge or perhaps Adobe Free PDF reader.

does this empty 500 gallon airplane fuel truck (and my truck) even require placards?? This even a hazmat load?? When does diesel fuel require placards?
Posted July 27, 2016
A hazardous materials endorsement (HME) may no longer be required for a driver transporting 1,000 gallons or less of diesel fuel. That’s according to a new final rule published July 22, 2016, in the Federal Register by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).
It will now be up to each state whether to waive the HME requirement for bulk diesel transport, under certain situations.
Non- bulk diesel
Did you know that the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR) except non-bulk packagings of diesel fuel, when the material is reclassed COMBUSTIBLE?
49 CFR 173.150 states that a flammable liquid with a flash point at or above 38 °C (100 °F) that does not meet the definition of any other hazard class may be reclassed as a combustible liquid.Last edited: Feb 14, 2019
