The Department of Transportation coordinates with other regulatory agencies to oversee and enforce HAZMAT shipping standards, including the International Air Transport Association (IATA). All HAZMAT shipments must comply with the DOT's Hazardous Materials Regulations (49 CFR). Part 175 of 49 CFR is specific to the transportation of hazmat through carriage by aircraft. In addition to understanding general requirements covered in the DOT HAZMAT Awareness, Security & Function Specific and Security training course, air carriers and shippers must comply with additional regulations listed under Part 175, as well as certain regulations within 14 CFR Parts 21, 23, and 91.
