1、Lessons Learned Entry: 0902Lesson Info:a71 Lesson Number: 0902a71 Lesson Date: 2000-06-28a71 Submitting Organization: KSCa71 Submitted by: Lori ThurowSubject: Hydrazine Cylinder Shipping Description of Driving Event: A hydrazine cylinder containing 11 liters of Hydrazine was shipped to the Kennedy S

2、pace Center (KSC). The shipping paperwork indicated the cylinder contained 1 liter of Hydrazine. The cylinder was transported by cargo air. Although transportation regulations allow cargo air transportation for quantities of this commodity up to 2.5 liters, the cylinder is covered by a Department of

When shipping a cylinder with a DOT exemption number on the side of the cylinder, shipping department personnel must recognize the need to review the terms of the exemption before shipping th
