Student Text IAFF Training for Hazardous Materials: Technician© that shippers use the “Environmentally Hazardous Substance” shipping name when shipping materials which do not appear on the hazardous materials table but are regulated by another federal agency (EPA or OSHA). Other Regulated Materials “ORM” hazard classes no longer exist. The exception is the ORM-D hazard class. Consumer commodities will be transported as an ORM-D. Materials packaged and distributed in a form intended for retail sale or for consumption by individuals for the purpose of personal care/household use are consumer commodities. Note that consumer commodities are not exempt from the hazardous material regulations. Instead, handle the consumer commodity as a specific hazardous material. Packaging requirements, marking requirements, and labeling requirements will be subject to US DOT regulation. Molten sulfur is an example of an ORM-D material. Activity Module 1: Regulations 1-39
