摘要: |
HMCRP Report 10: Feasibility Study for Highway Hazardous Materials Bulk Package Accident Performance Data Collection offers methodologies for collecting and analyzing performance data for U.S. DOT-specified hazardous materials bulk packages (i.e., portable tanks and cargo tank motor vehicles), identifies and evaluates institutional barriers to data collection, and makes suggestions for overcoming these barriers. The report offers a methodical approach for developing and implementing a reporting database system to collect information about damage to U.S. DOT-specified hazardous materials bulk packages involved in accidents, regardless of whether the damage resulted in a leak of contents, as well as the characteristics of the accidents. If implemented, the system would provide a comprehensive source of information to help the industry assess potential improvements in package design and allow decisionmakers to develop conditional probabilities of release and amounts of release in transport accidents by road. |
