Figure A4.1.  Hazard Classes

AFMAN 24-204(I)/TM 38-250/NAVSUP PUB 505/MCO P4030.19H/ DLAI 4145.3 45 11 DECEMBER 2001 either "Hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution (with not less than 20 percent  but not  more  than 40  percent hydrogen peroxide)" or "Hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution (with 30 percent hydrogen peroxide)." - Hazardous Wastes. The PSN for a hazardous material that is a hazardous waste must include the word "WASTE" preceding the name of the material (i.e., WASTE, ACETONE).  Comply with all requirements of this manual identified for the hazardous material when shipped as waste. HA4.2.3.  Column 3:  Hazard Class and Division.  Column 3 contains: - Primary hazard class and division numbers. When this  manual references  hazard  class,  that  includes  any division number if appropriate.  For Class 1 (explosives), the compatibility group is also given.  See A4.3 for additional information on class/divisions. - Identification of  "FORBIDDEN" items.  Do not transport "FORBIDDEN" items by military aircraft. - Some items that contain explosive material may be assigned to a classification other than Class 1 by DoD explosives   hazard   classification  approval   authorities   due  to   the   predominant  hazard   (see   A3.3.1.2). Compatibility group letters assigned to non-Class 1 material do not apply to military air transportation. A4.2.4.  Column 4:  Identification Number.  Column 4 lists the identification number assigned to each PSN. - Ship  items  classified  with  "UN"  (United  Nations)  or  "ID"  (identification)    numbers  domestically  or internationally. - Ship items classified with "NA" (North American) numbers domestically only, or to and from Canada or Mexico.  Use of “UN” numbers is preferred even for domestic shipment. - New  or  revised  UN  or  NA  numbers  in  49  CFR,  part  172,  ICAO  Technical  Instructions,  or  IATA Dangerous Goods Regulation are recognized for use with this manual. A4.2.5.  Column 5:  Packing Group (PG).  Column 5 specifies one or more packing groups assigned to each PSN and  hazard  class.    Hazard  classes  2,  7,  and  ORM-D  do  not  have  packing  groups.    See  A4.4  for  additional information on PG. A4.2.6.  Column 6:  Subsidiary Risk.  Column 6 identifies the hazard class/division of any subsidiary risk posed by a material.  Subsidiary risk may vary, depending on the applicable PG. A4.2.7.  Column 7:  Special Provisions.  Column 7 specifies codes for special provisions that are applicable for each PSN, hazard class, and PG.  Special provision codes may  vary,  depending  on  the  PG.   Requirements  of  the special  provision  codes  are  identified  in  table  A4.2.    The  codes  reflect  four  categories:    numeric  codes,  codes beginning with "A", codes beginning with "N", and codes beginning with a “P”. - Use codes beginning with a “P” to determine passenger eligibility for transport with hazardous materials. - Use all other codes to determine packaging provisions, restrictions, and exceptions from requirements for particular quantities or forms of materials. - When an additional packaging requirement is prescribed, the requirement is mandatory. HA4.2.8.     Column   8:      Packaging   Paragraph.     This   column   lists   the   applicable   packaging   paragraph. “FORBIDDEN” items are also identified in this column. - Except  when  otherwise  identified,  prepare  hazardous   material   shipments   according   to  the   specified packaging paragraph. - Packaging  paragraphs  in  each  attachment  provide  titles  as  a  guide  for  PSNs  covered  by  that  paragraph. These titles are a guide only and are not all-inclusive. - If a packaging paragraph in table A4.1 specifies packaging that is not applicable to the form of the material (i.e.,  the  packaging  specified  is  for  a  solid  material  and  the  material  shipped  is  in  liquid  form)  use  the following guidance to select the appropriate paragraph: - Use either packaging paragraph A8.3 (liquids) or A8.4 (solids) as appropriate. - Use either packaging paragraph A9.7 (liquids) or A9.8 (solids) as appropriate. - Use either packaging paragraph A10.5 (liquids) or A10.6 (solids) as appropriate. - Use either packaging paragraph A12.3 (liquids) or A12.4 (solids) as appropriate. A4.3.  Classifying Hazardous Materials. A4.3.1.  Hazard Class Names.  The hazard class and division is a numerical identification which describes the class (type)  of  primary  hazard involved  and  if  appropriate, its division  within  the  class.    Use  DoD  6050.5,  Hazardous Material Information System, product Material Safety Data Sheet, or other manufacturer’s information if assistance in  determining  the  hazard   classification   is  needed.      Figure   A4.1  lists   class  and   division  numbers  and   the corresponding class and division names.
