Which state designations determine exemptions to DG regulatory provisions?

• A. State of Origin or State of Operator
• B. Destination State
• C. Manufacturer State
• D. Airport State

Answer: (A)

Exemptions to dangerous goods regulatory provisions are granted by the competent authority in the State of Origin or the State of Operator. In international air transport, some shipments can be exempt from certain DG requirements if the authorities in the country where the goods originate or the country where the carrier is licensed approve them under specific conditions. The destination state does not grant these exemptions, and the manufacturer or airport state are not the sources of such exemptions. So the state designations that determine exemptions are the State of Origin or the State of Operator.
