The focus is on the MC306/406 gasoline tanker, the most common hazmat transport tanker/truck on the roads in the United States. Its construction features, the chemistry/properties of the materials these tankers carry, and their gasoline and diesel fuels are discussed. In addition, learn its safety features and how to operate its systems to gain a basic working knowledge of the tanker’s features so you can safely respond to a leak, spill, rollover, or fire situation. Case histories of several incidents are reviewed.
