China Releases JT/T 617 Series Regulations | chemical
On Nov 21st, China MOT releases JT/T 617 series on official website. JT/T 617, Regulations concerning road transportation of dangerous goods (危险货物道路运输规则), is the first integrated regulations for Road TDG in China. It will soon come into effect from Dec 1st, 2018.
As can be referred to ChemLinked previous news, JT/T 617 has 7 parts and uses ADR (the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road) as a reference to understand the international management on Road TDG. Framework comparison for JT/T 617 and ADR are detailed below:

Part 5 Consignment
Part 6 Provisions concerning the conditions of carriage, loading, unloading and handling
Part 7 Transport conditions and operational requirements
Part 6 Requirements for the construction and testing of packages, intermediate bulk containers (IBCs), large packages and tanks
