RE: Emergency Response
Of course , all they technically have to do to comply is put a copy of the
appropriate Emergency Response Guidebook guide pages with the shipping
papers. BTW, the 2000 ERG is on the U.S. DOT/ RSPA web site as a *.pdf file
(1.7 MB), as of February 1, 2000. http://hazmat.dot.gov/gydebook.htm

Point well taken. Until my agency started aggressively enforcing the ERI
rule, the majority of Florida's radioactive materials licensees were not
providing ERI sheets to their drivers transporting RAM. We now require our
licensees to submit sample ERI sheets to us as part of the licensing process
and look for them during inspections. We cite (but not fine) first time
offenders to force compliance, but we also provide them with model ERI
sheets (based on ones obtained from manufacturers) to assist them in
complying. We also explain the rationale for the rule - it benefits their
drivers, helping ensure that they receive prompt medical attention by
reducing any hesitation on the part of first responders that may be
reluctant to "dive in" to an accident scene where radiation-labeled packages
are present that pose an unknown health hazard.
Unfortunately, other state radiation control agencies have not been as
proactive on this issue as Florida, so there remain many exclusive use
carriers that don't have ERI sheets for their shipments. I have been trying
to carry the message to other inspectors when I teach at the NRC's
Inspection Procedures course, but I suspect we still have a long way to go.
