It's a county museum. I'm so glad I don't have to figure this out.  I was just a conduit.   Monona

This is a really good summary instruction for a state university but it does not address the Materials of Trade (MOT) exception.  It is not clear to me from the original note whether the "LA museum" is a government entity and thus not involved in "transportation in commerce" like a state university.  If the "LA museum" is a non-governmental not-for profit it might still be considered to be involved in transportation in commerce." In that case only the MOT exception has a chance of applying.

Monona,

Here is what my office shares for our people that transport between vehicles or local campuses.  It may be helpful:
https://www.smu.edu/BusinessFinance/RiskManagement/Health-Safety/ResearchSafety/ChemicalSafety/Transporting-and-Shipping-Hazardous-Materials

The pertinent sections are the "Transporting Chemical" section and below.  IN addition to what others have said regarding SDS, etc., we require a log and a spill kit to be on board. 



Regards,

    Re: CHO at museum asks for our help
   
    A really nice CHO at an LA museum found that the conservation staff has plans to transport chemicals from the museum to offsite facilities where they would perform treatment on objects.  The kits would vary depending on the treatment needed, but most of the time the kits would contain acetone, isopropanol, toluene, xylene, acetic acid, mineral spirits.  The CHO is not familiar with the DOT and other regulations for transporting/labeling chemicals.  But he ran across Title 49 Part 173.4 Small quantities for highway and rail outlines and realized he could have some issues with this plan.
   
    This is not an area I'm strong in and usually suggest a consultant. If any of you have this area nailed and could help, or if you know of a reasonable consultant to refer this to, the CHO can be reached at:
