Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com An Introduction to the IMDG Code Welcome to this free introduction to the IMDG Code from Exis Technologies. This provides a brief overview of the IMDG code structure and requirements. Where applicable, screens are referenced to the relevant IMDG Code clause.
2.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com An Introduction to the IMDG Code The objective of the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code is to: • Enhance the safe transport of dangerous goods • Protect the marine environment • Facilitate the free unrestricted movement of dangerous goods
3.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com The International Legal Framework The International Maritime Organization (IMO) The IMO is a United Nations specialised agency which has developed international legislation dealing with two key issues for the maritime industry: • The safety of life at sea • Prevention of pollution from ships IMDG Code reference: 1.1.1
4.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com The International Legal Framework The International Maritime Organization (IMO) The IMO has developed two international conventions to address these issues: •The SOLAS Convention (covering safety of life at sea) •The MARPOL Convention (covering pollution prevention) To supplement the principles laid down in the SOLAS and MARPOL Conventions, the IMO developed the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code. The IMDG code contains detailed technical specifications to enable dangerous goods to be transported safely by sea. The IMDG Code became mandatory for adoption by SOLAS signatory states from 1st January 2004. IMDG Code reference: 1.1.1
5.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com Principles of the IMDG Code The IMDG Code is based on an internationally agreed system which: • Groups dangerous goods together based on the hazards they present in transport (classification). • Contains the dangerous goods in packagings/tanks which are of appropriate strength and which will prevent the goods escaping. • Uses hazard warning labels and other identifying marks to identify dangerous goods in transport. • Requires standard documentation to be provided when dangerous goods are being transported. • Lays down principles for ensuring that dangerous goods which will react dangerously together are kept apart. • Lays down principles for where to place dangerous goods on board ship to ensure safe transport. • Provides emergency response advice for dangerous goods involved in a fire or spillage on board ship.
6.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com Principles of the IMDG Code Updating the IMDG Code The IMDG Code is evolving and is updated every two years to take account of: • New dangerous goods which have to be included. • New technology and methods of working with or handling dangerous goods. • Safety concerns which arise as a result of experience. Continued…
7.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com Principles of the IMDG Code Updating the IMDG Code Each version of the Code is given an Amendment number to signify how many times it has been updated. This number appears at the bottom of each page together with the year of the Amendment. The current Amendment is 35-10 which will remain in force until December 31st 2013. However, from 1st January 2013 Amendment 36-12 can also be used because 2013 is a transition year which allows the use of both Amendments in tandem. You can get a preview of the changes in Amendment 36-12 by going to: www.imdgsupport.com Let’s look at this Amendment process further.
8.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com The Amendment Cycle of the IMDG Code Principles of the IMDG Code • Each Amendment is valid for up to three years. • There are alternating years for implementation. • In January of the yellow years, a new Amendment is published and can be used immediately, subject to the timing of National Competent Authority adoption. • During the yellow years, the preceding Amendment can also be used, so it is a transition year. • In the green years, only the current Amendment may be used.
9.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com Layout of the IMDG Code The Code comprises 7 parts. It is presented in two books; Volume 1 and Volume 2. It is necessary to use both books to obtain the required information when shipping dangerous goods by sea. The Code also contains a Supplement.
10.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com Layout of the IMDG Code Volume 1 (Parts 1-2 & 4-7 of the Code) comprises: Part 1 General provisions, definitions and training Part 2 Classification Part 4 Packing and tank provisions Part 5 Consignment procedures Part 6 Provisions for the construction and testing of pressure receptacles, aerosol dispensers, small receptacles containing gas (gas cartridges) and fuel cell cartridges containing liquefied flammable gas Part 7 Requirements concerning transport operations
11.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com Layout of the IMDG Code Volume 2 (Part 3 and the Appendices of the Code) comprises: Part 3 Dangerous Goods List (DGL), Special Provisions Limited and Excepted Quantities Exceptions Appendix A List of Generic and N.O.S. (Not Otherwise Specified) Proper Shipping Names Appendix B Glossary of terms Alphabetical Index
12.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com Layout of the IMDG Code Supplement The supplement contains the following texts related to the Code: • Emergency Response Procedures for Ships Carrying Dangerous Goods • Medical First Aid Guide • Reporting Procedures • IMO/ILO/ECE Guidelines for Packing Cargo Transport Units • Safe Use of Pesticides in Ships, Cargo Holds and CTUs • International Code for the Carriage of Packaged Irradiated Nuclear Fuel, Plutonium and High-Level Radioactive Wastes on Board Ships
13.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com IMDG Code Classification System The purpose of the IMDG Code’s classification system is: • To distinguish between goods which are considered to be dangerous for transport and those which are not. • To identify the dangers which are presented by dangerous goods in transport. • To ensure that the correct measure are taken to enable these goods to be transported safely without risk to persons or property. IMDG Code reference: 2.0
14.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com IMDG Code Classification System Dangerous goods are classified into 9 classes according to properties. The way in which different classes of dangerous goods are handled in transport will depend upon these properties and hazards, for example: • The type of packaging that can be used. • What classes of dangerous goods can be transported together in freight containers. • Where the goods can be stored within the port and on the ship. Continued… IMDG Code reference: 2.0
15.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com IMDG Code Classification System The 9 classes: Class 1 Explosives Class 2 Gases Class 3 Flammable liquids Class 4 Flammable solids Class 5 Oxidizing substances and organic peroxides Class 6 Toxic and infectious substances Class 7 Radioactive material Class 8 Corrosive substances Class 9 Miscellaneous dangerous substances and articles These 9 hazard classes have been established internationally by a United Nations (UN) committee to ensure that all modes of transport (road, rail, air and sea) classify dangerous goods in the same way. Continued… IMDG Code reference: 2.0
16.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com Identification of Dangerous Goods PSN and UN Number Within each of the 9 hazard classes dangerous goods are uniquely identified by two pieces of information: • A four-digit number known as the UN Number which is preceded by the letters UN. • The corresponding Proper Shipping Name (PSN). For example, kerosene is identified in the IMDG Code by its UN Number UN 1223 and the PSN Kerosene. Continued… IMDG Code reference: 2.0.2
17.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com Identification of Dangerous Goods PSN and UN Number Together the UN Number and PSN uniquely identify dangerous goods to: • enable rapid and precise identification during transport to ensure the correct handling, stowage, segregation etc, and • in the event of an emergency, ensure that the correct procedures are followed. IMDG Code reference: 2.0.2
18.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com Hazard labels Each of the hazard classes are also identified by labels: Identification of Dangerous Goods IMDG Code reference: 5.2.2.2.2
19.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com Understanding the Dangerous Goods List (DGL) • The DGL is presented across 2 pages of the IMDG Code and is divided into 18 columns for each individual dangerous good listed. • Much of the information contained in the DGL is coded to make it easier to present in a table. • The DGL is arranged in UN Number order; column 1 and column 18 contains the UN Number. • To look up an entry, you just need the UN Number. • However, dangerous goods can also be searched using the PSN. • Therefore, if you do not have the UN Number but have the PSN, you can find its associated UN Number by looking at the alphabetical index at the back of Volume 2. IMDG Code reference: 3.0
20.
© Copyright Exis
Technologies 2010 www.hazcheck.com Understanding the Dangerous Goods List (DGL) Column 1 – UN Number Contains the United Nations Number assigned by the United Nations Committee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (UN List). Column 2 – Proper Shipping Name (PSN) Contains the Proper Shipping Names in upper case characters which may be followed by additional descriptive text in lower-case characters. Column 3 – Class or Division Contains the class and, in the case of class 1, the division and compatibility group. Column 4 – Subsidiary Risk(s) Contains the class number(s) of any subsidiary risk(s).
