Summary of Issue

Shippers are not properly being identified when violations are discovered during roadside inspections. This causes carriers to unduly bear the penalty these violations cause on their CSA Scores.

Justification or Need

In order to properly identify culpable parties for hazardous materials violations; the Hazardous Materials Committee proposes a inspection bulletin be issued to provide guidance in properly identifying shipper violations when completing roadside inspections.

Request for Action

That an inspection bulletin be issued.
