As previously announced, the updated DOT 2020 Emergency Response Guidebooks (ERGs) are being pushed back yet again due to the challenges encountered by COVID-19. Originally expected in the Spring, they were pushed back to this Summer. Now we've received word from the supplier that it will likely be late Fall before the updated version is released.
Until the updated version is made available, you will want to continue using the 2016 books. DOT requires hazardous materials shipments to be accompanied by emergency response information (49 CFR 172.602), and the ERG book can help you meet this requirement. A copy of the 2016 ERG should be placed in each vehicle that transports a DOT hazardous material until the new, updated version is released.
