qExplores near-term (less than 5 years) and longer-term (5-10 years) technologies that are candidates for enhancing the safety and security of hazardous materials transportation for use by shippers, carriers, emergency responders, or government regulatory and enforcement agencies. The report examines emerging generic technologies that hold promise of being introduced during these near- and longer-term spans. It also highlights potential impediments (e.g., technical, economic, legal, and institutional) to, and opportunities for, their development, deployment, and maintenance. The research focused on all modes used to transport hazardous materials (trucking, rail, marine, air, and pipeline) and resulted in the identification of nine highly promising emerging technologies.q--Provided by publisher.Association of American Railroads, Transportation Technology Center, Inc., website, http://www.aar.com (As of July 15, 2010). 33. ... http:// www.fmcsa.dot.gov/ facts-research/research-technology/report/ Hazardous-Materials-Serious-Crash- Analysis-Phase2-April2005. pdf. ... 5; Rule 99: Movements on FRA Excepted Track, p.
