Required section · Section 6 of 6

What this framework supports, and what still needs local sign-off

Classification drives packaging, packaging drives the marks and labels, and the trained shipper verifies the current ship-date requirements when they change the shipment decision.

If direct supervision required for a new function is absent, do not independently classify, prepare, sign, or release the package. Hand it to the trained shipper.

Make the classification and handoff decision before the package leaves the bench.

Six months from now, a numeric cutoff cited above (for example, the dry ice small-quantity threshold) may have changed. What should a laboratory do before relying on it for a real shipment?

Choose one option.

Verify the cutoff against the currently effective PHMSA regulation text and the IATA DGR edition in force on the actual ship date

Use the value stated here, since completing training is treated as an authoritative current reference

Ask the courier company for their internal cutoff, since courier policy overrides DOT and IATA rules

Nothing; regulatory cutoffs for infectious-substance transport do not change once published
