exterior of a vehicle when 8,820 pounds or more of a single HM (all with the same proper shipping name and identification number) is loaded at one stop, and there is no other material on board, either hazardous or non-hazardous. Additionally, when 2,205 pounds or more of a Poison Inhalation Hazard material assigned to either Hazard “one A or B is loaded at one facility, the transport vehicle must be marked with the identification number for that material as follows: 1. For different materials in the same Hazard “one, the vehicle should be marked with the identification number of the material with the highest weight; and, 2. For different materials in both Hazard “ones A and B, the vehicle should be marked with the identification number for the Hazard “one A material. How must the identification number be displayed on a cargo tank, portable tank, other bulk packaging, or tramsport vehicle requiring placarding for the HM it contains? The identification number may be displayed on placarded cargo tanks, portable tanks, other bulk packaging, and transport vehicles: 1) by black numbers on an orange background adjacent to each class placard; or, 2) the number may be shown on the placard instead of the hazard class name. The “UN” or “NA” prefix is not required in these circumstances. How must the identification number be displayed on a cargo tank, portable tank or other bulk packaging when the HM being transported requires an identification number displayed but not a placard? The three options available for displaying the identification number on a cargo tank, portable tank or other bulk packaging transporting HM which do not require placarding are: 1) by black numbers on an orange panel; or, 2) by black numbers on a white square-on-point configuration having the size and shape of a placard (when used alone, the identification numbers must be displayed in the manner prescribed for placards); or, 3) by black numbers on a placard. 1d
