HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Materials that have been determined by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) to be a risk to health, safety, and property. The term includes such items as explosives, flammables, poisons, corrosives, and radioactive materials. These materials must be packaged, labeled, handled, and transported according to stringent regulations from several agencies. International shipments must comply with docket HM-181, where the term "dangerous goods" is often used interchangeably with hazardous materials.
