Transportation of asbestos (designated as a hazardous material for transportation) is regulated by the U.S. Department of transportation (DOT). The DOT has requirements for shipping documents, packaging, labeling, and vehicle placarding. Asbestos must be loaded, handled and unloaded in a manner that will minimize occupational exposure to airborne asbestos fibers released during transit.
Requires that transporters carry identification papers for all quantities of asbestos greater than 1 pound. The state police enforce this requirement.
Regulates transportation of asbestos waste under title 49, section 173.1090.
