What kind of a response would the emergency services or enforcement officers expect, should they check the number? CR: Callers to the emergency number can expect to receive specialist advice on the properties and hazards of the dangerous goods whenever the tank is in transport, including stops. This is a regulatory requirement and often means 24 hours a day, 365 days a year service to cover when the tank is in transport.
