International Hazardous Material 24-Hour Emergency Response Information Service

DTGruelle provides and fulfills all U.S. and International 24-Hour Emergency Response Services (“ERS”) for shipments containing Hazardous Materials.

In the United States of America, the Federal hazardous materials transportation law authorizes PHMSA's Chief Counsel to assess a civil penalty of not less than $450, but not more than $75,000. As of October 2013, Appendix A to Subpart D of Part 107 - Guidelines for Civil Penalties sets a baseline assessment for the failure to include an emergency response telephone number on a shipping paper at $3,200.00 USD, per violation.
