  3. POP Packaging (Performance Oriented Packaging) Meets Materials of Lading Not Reusable Vessels may or may not be DOT approved containers (Silvex example) HAZMAT Transportation

  4. HAZMAT Transportation • Greater than Materials of Lading amounts (8 gal, 66 lb ,440 lb) • Requires additional documented training • Requires DOT approved containers • Does not require CDL • Up to 1000 lbs
