Hazardous Materials Compliance BASIC
['Compliance, Safety, Accountability CSA']
- CMV drivers must handle hazardous materials safely and properly to comply with the Hazardous Materials BASIC.
The safe and proper handling of hazardous materials (HM) is a critical step in the safe operation of commercial vehicles. Its importance grows under the Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) program.
The HM Compliance Behavior Analysis and Safety Improvement Category (BASIC) is used to measure driver and carrier performance related to unsafe or non-compliant handling of hazardous materials. Among the violations under this BASIC:
- No or improper markings on a hazmat load;
- Failing to have proper hazmat documentation;
- Failing to properly secure a hazmat load;
- Hazmat package integrity violations; and
- Hazmat routing violations.
Performance on the HM Compliance BASIC is measured using violations of certain Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations or Hazardous Materials Regulations recorded on roadside inspection reports resulting from vehicle inspections where a placardable amount of hazardous materials is being transported.
