To determine if a material is a hazardous substance, you must
use Table 1 and Table 2 - Appendix A of the HMT. You may
use the reference links to view Table 1 and Table 2 –
Appendix A at the end of the HMT. To determine whether a
particular package of hazardous material is regulated as a
hazardous substance, you must first determine the specific
name of the material. Is the material listed as a hazardous
substance in either Table 1 or Table 2 to Appendix A? What is
the RQ for the material, as listed in Table 1 or 2 of Appendix
A? Does the amount of the hazardous substance contained in
one package meet or exceed the RQ for that substance?
Finally, to determine the proper shipping name of the
hazardous substance, you must use the HMT to determine if it
is a proper shipping name.
