DOT / UN3373 Transport Compliance

Corevian is preparing transportation workflows for qualifying healthcare shipments subject to U.S. DOT requirements, including Biological substance, Category B (UN3373) shipments when 49 CFR § 173.199 applies. Service acceptance will depend on shipment classification, packaging, markings, transport mode, and applicable regulatory requirements.

01

DOT / PHMSA Requirements

Applicable U.S. Department of Transportation hazardous-material requirements are reviewed based on the material, classification, packaging, mode of transport, and Corevian’s role in the shipment.

02

UN3373 Category B Requirements

Biological substance, Category B shipments identified as UN3373 must meet the applicable requirements of 49 CFR § 173.199 when those requirements apply to the shipment.

03

Package Acceptance Review

Before accepting qualifying shipments, visible package condition and required markings can be reviewed against documented acceptance procedures; nonconforming or questionable packages are escalated rather than repackaged by the driver.

04

Compliance Documentation

Applicable transportation procedures and qualification materials can be organized for authorized onboarding, procurement, and compliance review.

DOT / UN3373 Requirements

Category B transport requirements depend on the material, classification, packaging, and mode.

UN3373 identifies Biological substance, Category B. When 49 CFR § 173.199 applies, the shipment must meet its applicable packaging, marking, and transport requirements. Corevian’s carrier procedures are being structured around acceptance review, custody documentation, escalation, and delivery responsibilities without transferring the shipper’s classification and packaging responsibilities to the driver.
