HAZMAT:

Hazardous Materials

Explosive, flammable, poisonous or otherwise potentially dangerous cargo. Large amounts of especially hazardous cargo are required to be placarded under HAZMAT regulations

Regional:

Regional Route

Usually refers to a driver hauling freight within one particular region of the country. You might be in the "Southeast Regional Division" or "Midwest Regional". Regional route drivers often get home on the weekends which is one of the main appeals for this type of route.

TWIC:

Transportation Worker Identification Credential

Truck drivers who regularly pick up from or deliver to the shipping ports will often be required to carry a TWIC card.

Your TWIC is a tamper-resistant biometric card which acts as both your identification in secure areas, as well as an indicator of you having passed the necessary security clearance. TWIC cards are valid for five years. The issuance of TWIC cards is overseen by the Transportation Security Administration and the Department of Homeland Security.

Congrats

dancing-dog.gif, once you have the gig, you'll get the other two dancing dogs. Lol

When I drove before, I drove tankers with oxygen-nitrogen-argon, it was a sweet gig. It paid good too. Once you get the training, things have to be done in a certain order. Now is this going to liquid or dry going into liquid. I did liquid (frozen). Had these big bulky gloves (something King Kong would wear). Depending on how far from the plant, you should be able to do 2-3 round trips in 12 hours. Anyway, you 'll love it.
