It was also stated that the proposal from the United States ST/SG/AC.10/C 3/R 586 would be covered by the R 577 paper. It was decided to prepare a revised proposal with all the consequential changes to Chapter 2, 11 and 14 of the Recommendations for the Transport of Dangerous Goods for a final discussion at the Committee Meeting in December 1994.  X  2.XBackground # In table 11. 2 fifteen packaging types for liquids and thirteen packaging types for solid organic peroxides are listed. Eleven of them are absolute identical. On the other hand there is no reasoning why a number of packagings not listed in table 11.2 are not accepted. For instance XX Plywood boxes (4D) are allowed but not plywood drums (1D) or plastic receptacles in plywood boxes (6HD2) or drums (6HD1). There is also no argument why plywood (4D) or natural wood (4C1) boxes can be used but no reconstituted wood box (4F).# GE.94 /a:\STR483E()))bb  +#  bN  NX ST/SG/AC.10/R.483 page 2 X$$So it would be much easier for everybody handling goods of the division 5.2 if Ɵ#$  Yv X$$©X| | the volume of the codes for the modes is as small as possibleƟ#|  Y_ X$$©X| | the number of restrictions is reduced to a minimum;Ɵ#|  YH X$$©X| | there is no differentiation between packagings for solids and liquids at all;Ɵ#|  Y  X$$All those problems could be eliminated if a few amendments will be made and all packagings of the numerals 1, 3, 4 and 6 (only plastic inner receptacles) are accepted whenƟ#$  Y X$$X| | ©X "they are compatible for the transported goods;Ɵ#  Y X$$X| | ©X "they meet the requirements of chapter 9 of the recommendations;Ɵ#  Y X$$X| | ©X "they fullfill the criteria given in 11.3.8 and 11.3.9Ɵ# X$$There is no reasoning why not nearly the whole variety of UNmarked packagings can be used.Ɵ#$   X  3.X$$ProposalƟ#$  Y 3.1X$$Substitute table 11.2 (A) and (B) by the following table:Ɵ#$ Table 11.2  Maximum quantities accepted for packing methods OP 1 to OP 8 #d  @E @# r ddx !ddx#CCCCCCC r  &    OP 1 OP 2 (1)I OP 3I OP 4 (1)I OP 5I OP 6I OP 7I OP 8 &   # kg for solids  0,5 0,5/10  5  5/25  25  50  50  200   I l for liquids%   0,5%  0,5/10%   5%   5/25%   30%   60%   60%   225      y$#dddhy  r5m% (1)X$$If two values are given, the first applies to the maximum net mass per inner packaging and the second to the maximum net mass of the complete package.Ɵ#$  (---XX $$| |  ",,(/644<CST/SG/AC.10/R.483 $$| |  ",,(/644<Cpage 3  r5 3.2X$$Amend 11.3.9.1 after the first sentence to read:Ɵ#$ X$$All drums, jerrycans (2), boxes (3) and composite packagings (4) of the numeral codes 1, 3, 4 and 6 H can be used if compatible to the peroxides to be transported.
