When do you need to placard your vehicle when transporting hay in Maine?

Question

I need to know how much hay you can legally haul before it requires a HAZMAT placard. Also, if anyone knows where to find this answer it would be helpful. I have checked the motor vehicle statue (Title 29A) and it just talks about height and width restrictions. I have also referenced the 2004 HAZMAT Response Guide but it only says how to deal with hay that may be oil or gas soaked. Thank you for all of your help.

Answer 1

There is no placarding requirement for hay.

Answer 2

You never need to placard hay. It is not hazmat. Do a web search for FMCSA Hazmat.
