This Final Report documents a project to identify current hazardous materials transportation research and future needs. The first phase of the project involved developing the framework for capturing existing research, planned research, and research gaps. It also sets the stage for prioritizing future research needs. The second phase of the project focused on developing a prioritized list of research projects for the Transportation Research Board’s (TRB's) Hazardous Materials Cooperative Research Program (HMCRP). The following sections of this report contain the results of the first seven project tasks: Section 2: lists the research organizations that were identified as potentially sponsoring or conducting hazmat transportation research (Task 1); Section 3: identifies the recent and planned research projects by organization and includes contact information, context and subject areas, and project descriptions (Tasks 2 and 3); Section 4: contains future research needs as identified by each organization (Task 3); Section 5: provides a matrix of research areas by organization (Task 4); Section 6: documents the gaps and overlaps in the research and provides a list of research needs and project descriptions (Task 5); Section 7: includes the finalized framework for prioritizing research needs and projects (Task 6 and Task 8); and Section 8: provides a prioritized list of the research projects (Task 9). This report constitutes the second deliverable for Task 10 of the project.
