Summary:

In international transportation of dangerous goods or hazardous materials, there are three international organizations involved in the regulation of the transportation of the materials in international trade: 1) the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), 2) the International Maritime Organization (IMO), and 3) the European Highway (ADR) and Rail (RID) Transport Committee. In addition, the United Nations Committee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, working under the auspices of the U.N. Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) located in New York with operational support provided by the Economic Commission for Europe (ECE) located in Geneva, Switzerland, has prepared recommendations for the transport of these materials.
