Intermodal Dry Cargo CNTR/CSC Reinspection Certifier 2025 – 400 Free Practice Questions to Pass the Exam

When a container is determined to be a Non-IMDG container, the IMDG portion of the DD Form 2282 is cut off from the container. This is crucial because the IMDG (International Maritime Dangerous Goods) code governs the safe transportation of hazardous materials. If a container does not meet the IMDG criteria, retaining the IMDG information could create confusion regarding the status of the cargo and its compliance with safety regulations. Therefore, cutting off the IMDG portion serves to clearly indicate that the container is not subject to IMDG shipping standards, ensuring that all involved parties are aware that the cargo is not classified as dangerous. This action helps maintain compliance with shipping regulations and enhances the safety of intermodal transport.
