🔍 Key Concepts

• 49 CFR and 46 CFR rules for hazardous materials/explosives in transportation • Requirements for condition of packaging before accepting dangerous cargo • Who has the primary responsibility when a package is clearly damaged or deteriorated

💭 Think About

• Think about what the regulations say you must do when an explosives package is obviously not in good condition. Are you allowed to fix it yourself or just make a note? • Consider the roles: shipper, carrier (your vessel), and Captain of the Port. Who is supposed to make the first decision when the package arrives in bad condition? • Ask yourself which choice most clearly prevents unsafe explosives from entering the transport chain without proper correction.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify that Class 1 explosives must be in sound, secure, and dry packaging before being accepted for carriage • Check whether a vessel operator is authorized to repair damaged explosives packaging on their own • Confirm whether contacting the shipper is required before involving outside authorities like the Captain of the Port
