24-Hour Emergency Response Compliance

Be compliant - the easy way!

Any company transporting hazardous materials MUST provide an emergency response telephone number for use in the event of an emergency involving a hazardous material (49 CFR §172.604).

The telephone number must be monitored at all times in hazardous material transportation. The person monitoring the number must be knowledgeable of the hazardous material, have a comprehensive emergency response and incident mitigation for that material, or have immediate access to a person who possesses such knowledge and information.

FUELIowa has partnered with Infotrac (www.infotrac.net), a state-of-the-art chemical emergency response system endorsed by the U.S. Department of Transportation, to provide 24 hour emergency response to members who ship hazardous materials.

For more information or enrollment forms call Jim Ewing (515) 421-4596 or email jim@fueliowa.com. This service offers exclusive pricing for FUELIowa members.
