WASHINGTON
� The U.S Department of
Transportation�s Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proposes a $58,350 civil
penalty against Buschur Racing of Wakeman, Ohio, for allegedly violating
Hazardous Materials Regulations. The FAA alleges that on
November 20, 2014, Buschur Racing offered 10 10-ounce cans of flammable aerosol
spray to UPS for shipment by air from Ohio to Quebec, Canada. UPS employees at
the company�s Milan, Ohio sort facility discovered the hazardous materials. The FAA alleges the shipment
was not accompanied by shipper papers describing the type or quantity of the
hazardous materials and was not properly marked or labeled in accordance with
the Hazardous Materials Regulations. Additionally, the FAA
alleges the employee who prepared the shipment did not receive required
hazardous materials training, and Buschur Racing failed to provide emergency
response information with it. Buschur Racing has asked
to meet with the FAA to discuss the case.
