United States Code Annotated, West Publishing Co., St. Paul, Minn. A compilation of U.S. laws of a general and permanent nature consisting of 50 Tides. Although many provisions of various Tides affect transportation. Tides 49 (Transportation) and 46 (Shipping) are of particular iaterest. Among other important statutes iacluded ia Tide 49 are the ICC Termination Act of 1995 ( 10101 et seql), the Department of Transportation Act ( 101 et seql), and the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act ( 5101 et seq.). Tide 46 collects various statutes pertaining primarily to water transportation.

The Hazardous Materials Transportation Act (HMTA) defines transportation releases to be those that occur during loading, unloading, transportation or temporary storage of hazardous materials or waste. Releases that meet certain criteria (see Table 64.1) should be reported to the National Response Center (NRC) and the state response center. Most states also require calls to the local police or response agencies (often by calling 911). Follow-up writ-... 

Taken together ABC-transporters represent a large family of proteins affecting the pharmacokinetic parameters of various drugs. Here, P-gp is currently the best characterized member and it may also be one of the most important ABC-transporters with regard to drug transport. However, it becomes more and more apparent that ABC-transporter act in a coordinated... 

Fig. 4.4. A current trend in drug transport studies is to use simplified cell models that facilitate the characterisation of selected drug transport mechanisms. However, recent research suggests that such simplified systems are not useful in cases where two or more drug transporters act in synergy. Development of cell models for such complex transport mechanisms will require the technically...

Personnel. More than any other area, we are often asked "How many people has your corporation added due to TSCA " I don t know of anyone who has a concise answer to this question. Complicating the situation is the fact that the 1960 s and 1970 s saw a number of environmental and health laws go into effect the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Occupational Safety and Health Act, Safe Drinking Water Act, Federal Water Pollution Control Act, TSCA, Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, and Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, to mention the major ones. This mixture of acts, with some similarities of purpose, developing within a time span of 10-15 years, has made a variety of similar demands. It is not easy at this point to attribute the addition of staff support personnel to an individual law such as TSCA. The same observation is applicable to all corporate resources which have felt the effects of TSCA however, in order to... 

The PSA of 1987 is currently promulgated by the DOT Office of Pipeline Safety under the Natural Gas Pipeline Safety Act of 1968 and the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act as summarized in Table 2.3. Petroleum releases are addressed under 40 CFR Part 195 which is subdivided into six subparts (Subparts A through F). Although these regulations apply to pipeline facilities and the transportation of hazardous liquids associated with those facilities in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce, they do not apply to transportation of hazardous liquids via the following ... 

Hazardous Materials Transportation Act (HMTA) provides the Department of Transportation the authority to regulate the packaging and movement of hazardous materials. 

The Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, passed in 1975, is the primary law governing transportation of chemicals and hazardous materials. The act includes a comprehensive assessment of the regulations, information systems, container safety, and training for emergency response and enforcement. The regulations apply to any person who transports, or causes to be transported or shipped, a hazardous material or who manufactures, fabricates, marks, maintains, reconditions, repairs, or tests a package or container which is represented, marked, certified, or sold by such person for use in the transportation in commerce of certain hazardous materials. ...

All ABC transporters have two nucleotide-binding domains (NBDs) and two transmembrane domains (Fig. 11-41). In some cases, all these domains are in a single long polypeptide other ABC transporters have two subunits, each contributing an NBD and a domain with six (or in some cases ten) transmembrane helices. Although many of the ABC transporters are in the plasma membrane, some types are also found in the endoplasmic reticulum and in the membranes of mitochondria and lysosomes. Most ABC transporters act as pumps, but at least some members of the superfamily act as ion channels that are opened and closed by ATP hydrolysis. The CFTR transporter (Box 11-3) is a Cl- channel operated by ATP hydrolysis.
