Description:
This test simulated shipments of hazardous waste contained in polyethylene (poly) drums, metal drums, and corrugated boxes through routine land transportation routes and across international ports of entry in the El Paso/Ciudad Juarez trade area. RFID tags were attached to four of each container type for a total of 12 containers which were loaded onto a standard 53-foot semi-truck and trailer at the New Mexico Border Authority (NMBA) facility's U.S. loading dock. Throughout testing, the 12 containers were arranged in the trailer in either a tightly-packed or loosely-packed configuration.
