Special provision 274
The provisions of 3.1.2.8 apply:
3.1.2.8 Generic or "not otherwise specified" (N.O.S.) Names
3.1.2.8.1 Generic and "not otherwise specified" proper shipping names that are assigned to special provision 274 or 318 in Column (6) of Table A in Chapter 3.2 shall be supplemented with the technical name of the goods unless a national law or international convention prohibits its disclosure if it is a controlled substance. For explosives of Class 1, the dangerous goods description may be supplemented by additional descriptive text to indicate commercial or military names. Technical names shall be entered in brackets immediately following the proper shipping name. An appropriate modifier, such as "contains" or "containing" or other qualifying words such as "mixture", "solution", etc. and the percentage of the technical constituent may also be used. For example: "UN 1993 FLAMMABLE LIQUID, N.O.S. (CONTAINS XYLENE AND BENZENE), 3, II".
3.1.2.8.1.1 The technical name shall be a recognized chemical name or biological name, or other name currently used in scientific and technical handbooks, journals and texts. Trade names shall not be used for this purpose. In the case of pesticides, only ISO common name(s), other name(s) in the World Health Organization (WHO) Recommended Classification of Pesticides by Hazard and Guidelines to Classification, or the name(s) of the active substance(s) may be used.
3.1.2.8.1.2 When a mixture of dangerous goods is described by one of the "N.O.S." or "generic" entries to which special provision 274 has been allocated in Column (6) of Table A in Chapter 3.2, not more than the two constituents which most predominantly contribute to the hazard or hazards of a mixture need to be shown, excluding controlled substances when their disclosure is prohibited by national law or international convention. If a package containing a mixture is labelled with any subsidiary risk label, one of the two technical names shown in parentheses shall be the name of the constituent which compels the use of the subsidiary risk label.
NOTE: See 5.4.1.2.2.
3.1.2.8.1.3 Examples illustrating the selection of the proper shipping name supplemented with the technical name of goods for such N.O.S. entries are:
UN 2902 PESTICIDE, LIQUID, TOXIC, N.O.S. (drazoxolon)
UN 3394 ORGANOMETALLIC SUBSTANCE, LIQUID, PYROPHORIC, WATER-REACTIVE (trimethylgallium)
UN 3540 ARTICLES CONTAINING FLAMMABLE LIQUID, N.O.S. (pyrrolidine).
3.1.2.8.1.4 For UN Nos. 3077 and 3082 only, the technical name may be a name shown in capital letters in column 2 of Table A of Chapter 3.2, provided that this name does not include "N.O.S." and that special provision 274 is not assigned. The name which most appropriately describes the substance or mixture shall be used, e.g.:
UN 3082 ENVIRONMENTALLY HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE, LIQUID, N.O.S. (PAINT)
UN 3082 ENVIRONMENTALLY HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE, LIQUID, N.O.S. (PERFUMERY PRODUCTS).

5.2.2.2 Provisions for labels
5.2.2.2.1 Labels shall satisfy the provisions below and conform, in terms of colour, symbols and general format, to the models shown in 5.2.2.2.2. Corresponding models required for other modes of transport, with minor variations which do not affect the obvious meaning of the label, are also acceptable.
NOTE: Where appropriate, labels in 5.2.2.2.2 are shown with a dotted outer boundary as provided for in 5.2.2.2.1.1. This is not required when the label is applied on a background of contrasting colour.
5.2.2.2.1.1.1 Labels shall be displayed on a background of contrasting colour, or shall have either a dotted or solid outer boundary line.
5.2.2.2.1.1.2 The label shall be in the form of a square set at an angle of 45° (diamond-shaped). The minimum dimensions shall be 100 mm x 100 mm. There shall be a line inside the edge forming the diamond which shall be parallel and approximately 5 mm from the outside of that line to the edge of the label. The line inside the edge on the upper half of the label shall be the same colour as the symbol and the line inside the edge on the lower half of the label shall be the same colour as the class or division number in the bottom corner. Where dimensions are not specified, all features shall be in approximate proportion to those shown.
5.2.2.2.1.1.3 If the size of the package so requires the dimensions may be reduced proportionally, provided the symbols and other elements of the label remain clearly visible. Dimensions for cylinders shall comply with 5.2.2.2.1.2.
5.2.2.2.1.2 Cylinders for Class 2 may, on account of their shape, orientation and securing mechanisms for carriage, bear labels representative of those specified in this section and the environmentally hazardous substance mark when appropriate, which have been reduced in size, according to the dimensions outlined in ISO 7225:2005, "Gas cylinders - Precautionary labels", for display on the non-cylindrical part (shoulder) of such cylinders.
NOTE: When the diameter of the cylinder is too small to permit the display of the reduced size labels on the non-cylindrical upper part of the cylinder, the reduced sized labels may be displayed on the cylindrical part.
Notwithstanding the provisions of 5.2.2.1.6, labels and the environmentally hazardous substance mark (see 5.2.1.8.3) may overlap to the extent provided for by ISO 7225:2005. However, in all cases, the primary hazard label and the figures appearing on any label shall remain fully visible and the symbols recognizable.
Empty uncleaned pressure receptacles for gases of Class 2 may be carried with obsolete or damaged labels for the purposes of refilling or inspection as appropriate and the application of a new label in conformity with current regulations or for the disposal of the pressure receptacle.
5.2.2.2.1.3 With the exception of labels for Divisions 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6 of Class 1, the upper half of the label shall contain the pictorial symbol and the lower half shall contain:
(a) For Classes 1, 2, 3, 5.1, 5.2, 7, 8 and 9, the class number;
(b) For Classes 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3, the figure "4";
(c) For Classes 6.1 and 6.2, the figure "6".
However for label model No. 9A, the upper half of the label shall only contain the seven vertical stripes of the symbol and the lower half shall contain the group of batteries of the symbol and the class number.
Except for label model No. 9A, the labels may include text such as the UN number or words describing the hazard (e.g. "flammable") in accordance with 5.2.2.2.1.5 provided the text does not obscure or detract from the other required label elements.
5.2.2.2.1.4 In addition, except for Divisions 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6, labels for Class 1 shall show in the lower half, above the class number, the division number and the compatibility group letter for the substance or article. Labels for Divisions 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6 shall show in the upper half the division number, and in the lower half the class number and the compatibility group letter.
5.2.2.2.1.5 On labels other than those for material of Class 7, the optional insertion of any text (other than the class number) in the space below the symbol shall be confined to particulars indicating the nature of the hazard and precautions to be taken in handling.
5.2.2.2.1.6 The symbols, text and numbers shall be clearly legible and indelible and shall be shown in black on all labels except for:
(a) The Class 8 label, where the text (if any) and class number shall appear in white;
(b) Labels with entirely green, red or blue backgrounds where they may be shown in white;
(c) The Class 5.2 label, where the symbol may be shown in white; and
(d) Labels conforming to model No. 2.1 displayed on cylinders and gas cartridges for liquefied petroleum gases, where they may be shown in the background colour of the receptacle if adequate contrast is provided.

5.5.3.1 Scope
5.5.3.1.1 This section is not applicable to substances which may be used for cooling or conditioning purposes when carried as a consignment of dangerous goods, except for the carriage of dry ice (UN No. 1845). When they are carried as a consignment, these substances shall be carried under the relevant entry of Table A of Chapter 3.2 in accordance with the associated conditions of carriage.
For UN No. 1845, the conditions of carriage specified in this section, except 5.5.3.3.1, apply for all kinds of carriage, as a coolant, conditioner, or as a consignment. For the carriage of UN No. 1845, no other provisions of ADR apply.
5.5.3.1.2 This section is not applicable to gases in cooling cycles.
5.5.3.1.3 Dangerous goods used for cooling or conditioning tanks or MEGCs during carriage are not subject to this section.
5.5.3.1.4 Vehicles and containers containing substances used for cooling or conditioning purposes include vehicles and containers containing substances used for cooling or conditioning purposes inside packages as well as vehicles and containers with unpackaged substances used for cooling or conditioning purposes.
5.5.3.1.5 Sub-sections 5.5.3.6 and 5.5.3.7 only apply when there is an actual risk of asphyxiation in the vehicle or container. It is for the participants concerned to assess this risk, taking into consideration the hazards presented by the substances being used for cooling or conditioning, the amount of substance to be carried, the duration of the journey, the types of containment to be used and the gas concentration limits given in the note to 5.5.3.3.3.
5.5.3.2 General
5.5.3.2.1 Vehicles and containers in which dry ice (UN 1845) is carried or containing substances used for cooling or conditioning purposes (other than fumigation) during carriage are not subject to any provisions of ADR other than those of this section.
5.5.3.2.2 When dangerous goods are loaded in vehicles or containers containing substances used for cooling or conditioning purposes any provisions of ADR relevant to these dangerous goods apply in addition to the provisions of this section.
5.5.3.2.3 (Reserved)
5.5.3.2.4 Persons engaged in the handling or carriage of vehicles and containers in which dry ice (UN 1845) is carried or containing substances used for cooling or conditioning purposes shall be trained commensurate with their responsibilities.

3.5.3 Tests for packages
3.5.3.1 The complete package as prepared for carriage, with inner packagings filled to not less than 95 % of their capacity for solids or 98 % for liquids, shall be capable of withstanding, as demonstrated by testing which is appropriately documented, without breakage or leakage of any inner packaging and without significant reduction in effectiveness:
a) Drops onto a rigid, non-resilient flat and horizontal surface from a height of 1.8 m:
(i) Where the sample is in the shape of a box, it shall be dropped in each of the following orientations:
- flat on the base;
- flat on the top;
- flat on the longest side;
- flat on the shortest side;
- on a corner;
(ii) Where the sample is in the shape of a drum, it shall be dropped in each of the following orientations:
- diagonally on the top chime, with the centre of gravity directly above the point of impact;
- diagonally on the base chime;
- flat on the side;
NOTE: Each of the above drops may be performed on different but identical packages.

Beförderung verpackter gefährlicher Abfälle
1 Abweichend von § 1 Absatz 3 Nummer 1 bis 3 sowie den §§ 18, 21 und 22 der GGVSEB in Verbindung mit den Teilen 1 bis 5 ADR/RID/ADN dürfen Abfälle, die nach den unter Nummer 2 aufgeführten Bestimmungen nach den Abfallgruppen 1 bis 15 klassifiziert, verpackt, gekennzeichnet und bezettelt sind, unter Einhaltung der Bestimmungen nach den Nummern 3 bis 5 befördert werden.
2 Klassifizierung, Verpackung, Kennzeichnung und Bezettelung
2.1 Für eine sicherheitsgerechte Beförderung sind Abfälle so zu sortieren, dass sie keine gefährlichen Reaktionen miteinander eingehen können.
2.2 Um Gefahren, die während der Beförderung auftreten können, auszuschließen, sind die Abfälle einer der nachstehenden Abfallgruppen zuzuordnen. Ein Vermischen der einzelnen Abfallgruppen ist nicht zulässig. Die Abfallgruppen dürfen nicht auf solche Stoffe angewendet werden, für die ein Beförderungsverbot besteht oder die nach Sondervorschriften befördert werden müssen.
Die Abfallgruppen gliedern sich in Untergruppen. Werden Abfälle mehrerer Untergruppen innerhalb einer Abfallgruppe befördert, sind im Beförderungspapier die für die Klasse der überwiegenden Gefahr gemäß den Absätzen 2.1.3.5.2 und 2.1.3.5.3 in Verbindung mit Unterabschnitt 2.1.3.10 ADR/RID/ADN zutreffenden Gefahrzettel und, soweit vorhanden, die Verpackungsgruppe des höchsten Gefahrengrades, gekennzeichnet durch I, II oder III, anzugeben.
Für die Abfallgruppe 1 sind im Beförderungspapier alle zutreffenden Gefahrzettel der Sendung anzugeben. Die Angabe der Verpackungsgruppe ist nicht erforderlich.
Die Gefahrzettel sind entsprechend den Untergruppen der jeweiligen Abfallgruppe anzubringen.
2.3 Wer Abfälle eigenverantwortlich verpackt oder verpacken lässt, muss feststellen, welcher Untergruppe innerhalb der Abfallgruppe die gefährlichen Abfälle zuzuordnen sind, damit der Nachweis der ausreichenden chemischen Verträglichkeit mit den vorgesehenen Verpackungen aus Kunststoff auf Grund der durchgeführten Bauartprüfung mit der/den Standardflüssigkeit(en) geführt werden kann. Werden innerhalb der Abfallgruppe verschiedene Untergruppen gemischt verpackt, muss der Nachweis der ausreichenden chemischen Verträglichkeit nach Unterabschnitt 4.1.1.21 in Verbindung mit Abschnitt 6.1.6 ADR/RID für alle in Spalte 8 der Tabelle in Nummer 2.4 der betreffenden Abfallgruppe aufgeführten Standardflüssigkeiten geführt worden sein. Dabei gilt dieser Verträglichkeitsnachweis für Essigsäure auch als erbracht, wenn die Verpackungsbauart für die Standardflüssigkeit Netzmittellösung zugelassen ist. Für Verpackungen der Codierung 1H2, 3H2 und 4H2 gilt der Nachweis der ausreichnden chemischen Verträglichkeit als erbracht, wenn die Verträglichkeit des Werkstoffs mit den jeweiligen Standardflüssigkeiten im Rahmen einer Bauartprüfung und -zulassung für Verpackungen 1H1 oder 3H1 nachgewiesen wurde.
2.4 Tabelle der gefährlichen Abfälle
Die in der nachfolgenden Tabelle angegebenen Klassen, Klassifizierungscodes (soweit anwendbar), Verpackungsgruppen (soweit anwendbar), Tunnelbeschränkungscodes (soweit anwendbar) und Nummern der Gefahrzettelmuster beziehen sich auf die jeweiligen gefahrgutrechtlichen Regelwerke ADN für die Binnenschifffahrt (B), RID für die Eisenbahn (E) und ADR für den Straßenverkehr (S).

NOTE: In addition to the security provisions of ADR, competent authorities may implement further security provisions for reasons other than safety during carriage (see also Article 4, paragraph 1 of the Agreement). In order not to impede international and multimodal carriage by different explosives security marks, it is recommended that such marks be formatted consistent with an internationally harmonized standard (e.g. European Union Commission Directive 2008/43/EC).
1.10.3.1 Definition of high consequence dangerous goods
1.10.3.1.1 High consequence dangerous goods are those which have the potential for misuse in a terrorist event and which may, as a result, produce serious consequences such as mass casualties, mass destruction or, particularly for Class 7, mass socio-economic disruption.
1.10.3.1.2 High consequence dangerous goods in classes other than Class 7 are those listed in Table 1.10.3.1.2 and carried in quantities greater than those indicated therein.
1.10.3.1.3 to 1.10.3.1.5 apply to radioactive material
1.10.3.2 Security plans
1.10.3.2.1 Carriers, consignors and other participants specified in 1.4.2 and 1.4.3 engaged in the carriage of high consequence dangerous goods (see Table 1.10.3.1.2) or high consequence radioactive material (see 1.10.3.1.3) shall adopt, implement and comply with a security plan that addresses at least the elements specified in 1.10.3.2.2.
1.10.3.2.2 The security plan shall comprise at least the following elements:
(a) Specific allocation of responsibilities for security to competent and qualified persons with appropriate authority to carry out their responsibilities;
(b) Records of dangerous goods or types of dangerous goods concerned;
(c) Review of current operations and assessment of security risks, including any stops necessary to the transport operation, the keeping of dangerous goods in the vehicle, tank or container before, during and after the journey and the intermediate temporary storage of dangerous goods during the course of intermodal transfer or transhipment between units as appropriate;
(d) Clear statement of measures that are to be taken to reduce security risks, commensurate with the responsibilities and duties of the participant, including:
- training;
- security policies (e.g. response to higher threat conditions, new employee/employment verification, etc.);
- operating practices (e.g. choice/use of routes where known, access to dangerous goods in intermediate temporary storage (as defined in (c)), proximity to vulnerable
infrastructure etc.);
- equipment and resources that are to be used to reduce security risks;
(e) Effective and up to date procedures for reporting and dealing with security threats, breaches of security or security incidents;
(f) Procedures for the evaluation and testing of security plans and procedures for periodic review and update of the plans;
(g) Measures to ensure the physical security of transport information contained in the security plan; and
(h) Measures to ensure that the distribution of information relating to the transport operation contained in the security plan is limited to those who need to have it. Such measures shall not preclude the provision of information required elsewhere in ADR.
NOTE: Carriers, consignors and consignees should co-operate with each other and with competent authorities to exchange threat information, apply appropriate security measures and respond to security incidents.
1.10.3.3 Devices, equipment or arrangements to prevent the theft of the vehicle carrying high consequence dangerous goods (see Table 1.10.3.1.2) or high consequence radioactive material (see 1.10.3.1.3) and its cargo, shall be applied and measures taken to ensure that these are operational and effective at all times. The application of these protective measures shall not jeopardize emergency response.
NOTE: When appropriate and already fitted, the use of transport telemetry or other tracking methods or devices should be used to monitor the movement of high consequence dangerous goods (see Table 1.10.3.1.2) or high consequence radioactive material (see 1.10.3.1.3).
Limitations
The requirements of 1.10.1, 1.10.2, 1.10.3 and 8.1.2.1 (d) do not apply when the quantities carried in tanks or in bulk on a transport unit do not exceed those referred to in 1.1.3.6.3. In addition the provisions of this Chapter do not apply to the carriage of UN No. 2912 RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL, LOW SPECIFIC ACTIVITY (LSA-I) and UN No. 2913 RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL, SURFACE CONTAMINATED OBJECTS (SCO-I).

See also subsections 4.1.1.5 and 4.1.1.6, section 5.1.4 and subsection 6.1.4.21:
4.1.1.5 Inner packagings shall be packed in an outer packaging in such a way that, under normal conditions of carriage, they cannot break, be punctured or leak their contents into the outer packaging. Inner packagings containing liquids shall be packed with their closures upward and placed within outer packagings consistent with the orientation marks prescribed in 5.2.1.10. Inner packagings that are liable to break or be punctured easily, such as those made of glass, porcelain or stoneware or of certain plastics materials, etc., shall be secured in outer packagings with suitable cushioning material. Any leakage of the contents shall not substantially impair the protective properties of the cushioning material or of the outer packaging.
4.1.1.5.1 Where an outer packaging of a combination packaging or a large packaging has been successfully tested with different types of inner packagings, a variety of such different inner packagings may also be assembled in this outer packaging or large packaging. In addition, provided an equivalent level of performance is maintained, the following variations in inner packagings are allowed without further testing of the package:
Inner packagings of equivalent or smaller size may be used provided:
the inner packagings are of similar design to the tested inner packagings (e.g. shape – round, rectangular, etc.);
the material of construction of the inner packagings (glass, plastics, metal, etc.) offers resistance to impact and stacking forces equal to or greater than that of the originally tested inner packaging;
the inner packagings have the same or smaller openings and the closure is of similar design (e.g. screw cap, friction lid, etc.);
sufficient additional cushioning material is used to take up void spaces and to prevent significant movement of the inner packagings; and
inner packagings are oriented within the outer packaging in the same manner as in the tested package.
A lesser number of the tested inner packagings, or of the alternative types of inner packagings identified in (a) above, may be used provided sufficient cushioning is added to fill the void space(s) and to prevent significant movement of the inner packagings.
4.1.1.6 Dangerous goods shall not be packed together in the same outer packaging or in large packagings, with dangerous or other goods if they react dangerously with each other and cause:
combustion or evolution of considerable heat;
evolution of flammable, asphyxiant, oxidizing or toxic gases;
the formation of corrosive substances; or
the formation of unstable substances.
[...]
5.1.4 Mixed packing
When two or more dangerous goods are packed within the same outer packaging, the package shall be labelled and marked as required for each substance or article. If the same label is required for different goods, it only needs to be applied once.

Handling
General hints concerning handling and stowage
================================
Excerpts from chapter 7.5 of ADR
================================
7.5.7 Handling and stowage
7.5.7.1 Where appropriate the vehicle or container shall be fitted with devices to facilitate securing and handling of the dangerous goods. Packages containing dangerous substances and unpackaged dangerous articles shall be secured by suitable means capable of restraining the goods (such as fastening straps, sliding slatboards, adjustable brackets) in the vehicle or container in a manner that will prevent any movement during carriage which would change the orientation of the packages or cause them to be damaged. When dangerous goods are carried with other goods (e.g. heavy machinery or crates), all goods shall be securely fixed or packed in the vehicles or containers so as to prevent the release of dangerous goods. Movement of packages may also be prevented by filling any voids by the use of dunnage or by blocking and bracing. Where restraints such as banding or straps are used, these shall not be over-tightened to cause damage or deformation of the package *1). The requirements of this paragraph are deemed to be complied with if the cargo is secured in accordance with standard EN 12195-1:2010.
7.5.7.2 Packages shall not be stacked unless designed for that purpose. Where different design types of packages that have been designed for stacking are to be loaded together, consideration shall be given to their compatibility for stacking with each other. Where necessary, stacked packages shall be prevented from damaging the package below by the use of load-bearing devices.
7.5.7.3 During loading and unloading, packages containing dangerous goods shall be protected from being damaged.
NOTE: Particular attention shall be paid to the handling of packages during their preparation for carriage, the type of vehicle or container on which they are to be carried and to the method of loading or unloading, so that accidental damage is not caused through dragging or mishandling the packages.
7.5.7.4 The provisions of 7.5.7.1 also apply to the loading, stowage and removal of containers, tankcontainers, portable tanks and MEGCs on to and from vehicles.
7.5.7.5 Members of the vehicle crew may not open a package containing dangerous goods.
7.5.7.6 Loading of flexible bulk containers
7.5.7.6.1 Flexible bulk containers shall be carried within a vehicle or container with rigid sides and ends that extend at least two-thirds of the height of the flexible bulk container. The vehicles used for carriage shall be equipped with a vehicle stability function approved in accordance with ECE Regulation No. 13 *2).
NOTE: When loading flexible bulk containers in a vehicle or container particular attention shall be paid to the guidance on the handling and stowage of dangerous goods referred to in 7.5.7.1 and to the IMO/ILO/UNECE Code of Practice for Packing of Cargo Transport Units (CTU Code).
7.5.7.6.2 Flexible bulk containers shall be secured by suitable means capable of restraining them in the vehicle or container in a manner that will prevent any movement during carriage which would change the position of the flexible bulk container or cause it to be damaged. Movement of the flexible bulk containers may also be prevented by filling any voids by the use of dunnage or by blocking and bracing. Where restraints such as banding or straps are used, these shall not be over-tightened to cause damage or deformation to the flexible bulk containers.
7.5.7.6.3 Flexible bulk containers shall not be stacked.
7.5.8 Cleaning after unloading
7.5.8.1 If, when a vehicle or container which has contained packaged dangerous goods is unloaded, some of the contents are found to have escaped, the vehicle or container shall be cleaned as soon as possible and in any case before reloading.
If it is not possible to do the cleaning locally, the vehicle or container shall be carried, with due regard to adequate safety, to the nearest suitable place where cleaning can be carried out.
Carriage is adequately safe if suitable measures have been taken to prevent the uncontrolled release of the dangerous goods that have escaped.
7.5.8.2 Vehicles or containers which have been loaded with dangerous goods in bulk shall be properly cleaned before reloading unless the new load consists of the same dangerous goods as the preceding load.
7.5.9 Prohibition of smoking
Smoking shall be prohibited during handling operations in the vicinity of vehicles or containers and inside the vehicles or containers. This prohibition of smoking is also applicable to the use of electronic cigarettes and similar devices.
7.5.10 Precautions against electrostatic charges
In the case of flammable gases, or liquids with a flash-point of 60 °C or below, or UN No. 1361, carbon or carbon black, packing group II, a good electrical connection from the chassis of the vehicle, the portable tank or the tank-container to earth shall be established before tanks are filled or emptied. In addition, the rate of filling shall be limited.
