FAA PROPOSES $54,000 PENALTY AGAINST INTERSCIENCE

October 20, 2017

Following an alleged violation of the Hazardous Materials Regulations, FAA has proposed a $54,000 penalty against Interscience of Saint-Nom-la-Breteche, France. It is alleged that Interscience offered six plastic bottles of flammable liquid disinfectant spray to American Airlines for air transport from Blagnac, France to Nuevo Leon, Mexico. The shipment was not accompanied by a shipper’s declaration nor was it properly classed, described, packaged, marked, or labeled. Additionally, Interscience failed to ensure its employees received required training on hazardous materials.
