U.S. GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE CIRCULAR LETTER NO. 452

The Government Printing Office (GPO) is now accepting rider orders for
the Department of Transportation (DOT) publication entitled 'Emergency
Response Guidebook 2000 (ERG2000)'.  ERG2000 was developed jointly by
DOT and the Canadian and Mexican governments for use by firefighters,
police, and other emergency services personnel who may be the first to
arrive at the scene of a transportation accident involving hazardous
materials.  It is primarily a guide to aid first responders in quickly
identifying the specific or generic classification of the materials
involved and protecting themselves and the general public during the
initial response phase.


Submit your requirements to Patricia A. Powers [papowers] for the
Emergency Response Guidebook 2000 (ERG2000) by CLOSE OF BUSINESS
