摘要

The test-based classification system of the HMR and IMDG Code sets out a generalized approach to capturing those substances that pose a toxicity risk in transportation. It is a simple pragmatic approach and for that reason it may not capture all substances that warrant being regulated. A cursory review of the hazards of TDI suggests that there is a basis for regulating this material as toxic even though it might not neatly be captured by the test methods included in the regulations so that classification on the basis of human experience appears to have been justifiable. There does not appear to be HMR/IMDG Code regulatory support for PHMSA interpretation that the human experience classification only applies in the case of the pure substance. While the PHMSA interpretation may provide "compliance cover" within the US, it may not do so outside the US. It seems understandable that an "international source" mentioned by the questioner might challenge the questioner's company decision to regard even a 5% concentration of TDI as nondangerous. While the questioner provided PHMSA some data supporting its decision to not regulate the 5% concentration, the analysis provided is based on the test and criteria for Division 6.1. It did not show that the hazards likely used as the basis for a human experience classification of the pure substance (i.e., those reflected by ASTR) were no longer present in the 5% concentration mixture. This is what the regulations expect in order to discount the human experience classification. There is no clearly defined path for getting out from under a "human experience classification" in the case of a mixture; but to do it correctly it appears the basis for discounting that classification should be based on showing the mixture does not pose the hazards of the pure substance. It would be best if the analysis were well documented by corporate toxicologists or alternatively, even though not expressly required, it may be prudent to establish a cutoff concentration by way of a PHMSA approval.
