Circular Letter
No. 550
February 20, 2004
TO: Printing and Publishing Officials
of the Federal Government
SUBJECT: Rider Orders for Emergency
Response Guidebook 2004
The Government Printing Office (GPO) is
now accepting rider orders for the Department
of Transportation (DOT) publication entitled Emergency
Response Guidebook 2004 (ERG2004). ERG2004
was developed jointly by DOT and the Canadian
and Mexican governments for use by firefighters,
police, and other emergency services personnel
who may be the first to arrive at the scene
of a transportation accident involving hazardous
materials. It is primarily a guide to aid
first responders in quickly identifying the
specific or generic classification of the
materials involved and protecting themselves
and the general public during the initial
response phase.
Although the exact rider rate has not yet
been determined, your requisition prior to
production allows the printing of these copies
during the regular press run. This results
in substantial savings, which we are then
able to pass along to you. For your budgeting
purposes, we estimate that the rider rate
will be between $2 and $3 for each copy.
(Please note that the rider rate applies
to single destination, local delivery orders
only. Mailing costs, if incurred, will comprise
an additional charge.)
To take advantage of the rider rate, please
forward your requisitions (Standard Form
1) to GPO by March 5, 2004. Note: ERG2004
is published in English, Spanish, and French;
if you do not specify a version you will
receive the English edition. Please also
specify DOT requisition number 4-71079 and
GPO jacket number 305-896 on your requisition.
If you have any questions, or require additional
information, please contact your GPO Account
Representative or call the Departmental Account
Representative Division on 202-512-0238.
If you have any questions, or require additional
information, please contact your GPO Account
Representative.
Sincerely,
JIM BRADLEY
Managing Director, Customer Services
