Where can I get a 2024 Emergency response guidebook today?

The ERG2024 app User's Guide states
"The digital ERG is not a legally accepted substitute for the emergency response information required with many hazmat shipments."
Currently it is not possible to print the response pages from the app. "The Share To feature has been temporarily disabled pending corrections."

 

I would think any person who has the Haz-Mat endorsement on their CDL would get the ERG to carry with them just in case.

 

At the truck stop

 

The carrier is required to supply the ERG & training every few years. The ERG is sold in most truck stops, also the FMCSA Regulation book.

 

Once you start hauling HazMat understand the fines a driver is personally vulnerable to pay are MUCH MUCH higher. Don't be quick to ignore or dismiss any rule unless you are ready to pay $1k-10,000 fines.

 

There is an app 'Cargo Decoder' that has all the guidebook materials with a UN number lookup.

As mentioned above it isn't acceptable for transport but is a good source of info.

When working I always purchased ERG pre-order and gave them to the drivers.

 

Neither of these apps satisfy the requirement to have the physical ERG book along with the HM paperwork in the truck.

I understand your point but it has nothing to do with the accident but with following steps that are already established. The book is required. I tell the drivers to keep it with the paperwork, they get a cool-looking aluminum clipboard thing that the book fits in a spot, so there is no excuse. If he/she had an L3 inspection, it is right there, it isn't going to lead to a violation. But then the driver also knows to confirm everything on the shipper's paperwork, before it leaves.

When there is an accident, the book is meaningless to those who may show up to help with a Hazmat situation, most can't figure out how to look things up (many drivers also can't figure it out) so the need isn't at the point of the accident. However, when there is litigation, it is noted on the accident report.

 

Can you post a link or tell me where to find that clipboard?

Thanks in advance!
