List of Hazardous Chemicals Prohibited from Inland Waterway Transport

The List of Hazardous Chemicals Prohibited from Inland Waterway Transport serves as a foundational document for implementing the Regulations on the Safety Management of Hazardous Chemicals. It provides a crucial basis for enterprises to fulfill their primary responsibility for hazardous chemical safety management and for relevant departments to carry out supervision and administration.
Pursuant to Article 51, Paragraph 2 of the Yangtze River Protection Law of the People's Republic of China and Article 54 of the Regulations on the Safety Management of Hazardous Chemicals, the transportation of highly toxic chemicals and other hazardous chemicals prohibited by national regulations from being transported via inland waterways is prohibited on the Yangtze River basin and through enclosed inland water areas. In other inland water areas, the transportation of highly toxic chemicals and other hazardous chemicals prohibited by national regulations from being transported via inland waterways is also prohibited. The scope of highly toxic chemicals and other hazardous chemicals prohibited from inland waterway transport shall be defined and published by the Ministry of Transport and three other ministries based on four factors: the hazardous properties of the chemicals, the severity of harm to human health and aquatic environments, and the difficulty of mitigating harmful consequences.
The current version of this list is the 2019 edition, which lists 228 hazardous chemicals subject to comprehensive prohibition in inland waterway transportation. It provides corresponding details including the specific serial number, chemical name, alternative names, UN number, proper Chinese shipping name, and CAS number for each hazardous chemical.

Hazardous chemicals in the List are prohibited from inland waterway transport in any form.
Note: According to the screening principles for the hazardous chemicals comprehensively prohibited from inland waterways transportation, mixtures containing prohibited components shall be controlled as comprehensively prohibited hazardous chemicals if they meet any of the following conditions:
1. They are unstable explosives;
2. Contain ammonium chlorate (CAS: 10192-29-7), perchloric acid with a concentration >72% (CAS: 7601-90-3), methyl nitrite (CAS: 624-91-9), ammonium zinc nitrite (CAS: 63885-01-8), or ammonium nitrate (CAS: 6484-52-2) containing ≤ 0.2% combustible material sufficient to cause spontaneous decomposition;
3. Possess either of the two GHS hazard categories: Hazardous to the aquatic environment — Acute hazard Category 1, or Hazardous to the aquatic environment — Chronic hazard Category 1.
