Chief Chris Eddy’s Law

Chief Chris Eddy's Law requires the Secretary of Transportation to update rules so that all refrigerated shipping containers display specific placards to warn emergency responders about potential pressurization risks. This requirement applies to every refrigerated container regardless of the cargo it carries, covering transportation within states, between states, and across borders. Additionally, the bill mandates a study to evaluate whether refrigerants should be classified as a separate hazard category and to analyze how such a change would affect existing safety regulations.
