<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi all,<br>
<br>
it might be worth to add a second bit of clarification:<br>
<br>
IATA/ICAO A180 compliant packing says if non-infectious specimens,
such as .... containing small quantities of UN1170 (ethanol,
ethanol solution, ethyl alcohol or ethyl alcohol solution), UN1198
(formaldehyde solution, flammable), UN 1987 (alcohols, not
otherwise specified) or UN1219 (isopropyl alcohol) <b>are not
subject to these Regulations</b> providing the following packing
and marking requirements are met ..."<br>
<br>
The words are <i>not subject to these Regulations</i> are
decisive: despite their identification as UN-rated hazardous
materials, they are not classified as such, i.e. they are not
considered dangerous goods at all. This exemption stands and falls
with the correct packing. ICAO/IATA is an international UN
agreement, excepted in all countries (ICAO), and by all airlines
(IATA).<br>
<br>
If you are travelling and have such materials in your hand-carried
or checked luggage, it is advisable to take copies of IATA/ICAO
A180, and at least a copy of the limitations table (2.3A) from the
IATA handbook with you. Respective sections in ICAO and IATA are
interchangeable, the legally binding one is ICAO. <br>
<br>
All the best<br>

<p>One call to EPA help line is all it took. Well, that and
knowing what questions to ask.</p>
<p>So actually you need a certification for ethanol (I will look
up SDS later to see if it is on the TSCA inventory). But there
is an express exemption for R&D. <br>

moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/40/720.36</a></p>
<p>So you still need the certification:<br>
</p>
<p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://ftn.fedex.com/forms/TSCA_Certification.pdf"
moz-do-not-send="true">http://ftn.fedex.com/forms/TSCA_Certification.pdf</a></p>
<p>But it is the "positive" certification. And they said for
product description, write, "R&D exemption."<br>
</p>
<p>That easy.</p>
<p>I would advise everyone to have this form with them for
hand-carries and in the FedEx pouch for shipping. It is one
page, easy to complete, and better to have it and not need it
than need it and not have it. <br>
</p>
<p>It is most likely going to keep coming up for anyone who has to
have an APHIS import permit and certificate of treatment,
because ethanol and SDS are probably the most commonly used of
the approved treatment methods. So the CBP agricultural
specialist reads your certificate of treatment and then sees
that you have a TSCA-listed substance and requires this form.
But even if you don't need an APHIS import and certificate of
treatment, it makes sense to include this form with your
hand-carries and shipped imports.</p>
<p>Are you sure you don't think the OC is worth $20 to you?<br>
</p>
<p>Thanks.<br>
