About the Hazmat Alliance

The Uniform Program

The Uniform Hazmat Program is a base state system whereby a motor carrier of hazardous materials obtains credentials in the state the carrier travels the most miles among the three participating states and these credentials are good in all participating jurisdictions. States may choose to regulate all hazardous materials or a subset like hazardous waste. The program consists of three components-registration, permitting, and hazardous/radioactive waste disclosure.

Three states – Michigan, Nevada, and West Virginia – are current participants in the reciprocal program. An online application process streamlines the procedure for both motor carriers and the states. The website application is supported by Diverse Website Strategies.
