CHAPTER 4: ON-SITE CHEMICAL TRANSPORTATION
This chapter identifies and consolidates existing user safety and health requirements found in DOE and
other federal chemical-related safety and health regulations and national standards (especially those of the
Compressed Gas Association (CGA)) applicable to all locations involved in the on-site transport of
chemicals and chemical products (see def.). This includes hazardous materials offered for transportation
on-site, and the packaging, labeling, or marking of hazardous materials for transportation on-site. State
and local codes and requirements are not included.
On-site transportation of chemicals is regulated by DOE and other Federal Hazardous Materials
Regulations, site-specific documents, and DOE and other Federal regulations applicable to the transport
of specific materials. Section 4.1 consolidates these requirements for the on-site transfers of hazardous
materials and addresses acceptable alternatives for sites' compliance with the Department of
Transportation's Hazardous Materials Regulations.
Section 4.2 consolidates the requirements for on-site transport of specific materials, including compressed
gas cylinders, cryogenic liquid containers, and acetylene cylinders. This section covers such subjects as
cylinder construction, labeling/marking, securing and lifting, and protection caps.
Of particular note in this chapter is that the CGA uses the word "should" for its non-mandatory
"requirements". Since the DOE incorporates CGA documents by reference, these requirements may be
interpreted as mandatory. Of additional note in this chapter is that packaging and transportation safety
requirements apply to the purchasers of hazardous chemicals is they subsequently transfer those
chemicals to another location for on-site transfers, site rules apply; for off-site transfers, DOT rules
apply.

CHAPTER 5: CHEMICAL STORAGE
This chapter covers those existing DOE and other federal requirements that govern the storage of
chemicals and chemical products (see def.). State and local requirements are not included. The
consolidated requirements addressed here apply to all locations involved in the use of chemicals and
chemical products. The chapter is divided into five major sections. Section 4.1 consolidates general
storage requirements for chemicals and chemical products, section 4.2 requirements specific to
compressed gases, section 4.3 requirements for flammable and combustible liquids, section 4.4
requirements for oxidizers, and 4.5 requirements for organic peroxides.
