Hazardous material ceases to be hazardous when it is destroyed, sufficiently diluted in nonhazardous material, it is chemically changed into a nonhazardous material or incorporated into an object that immobilizes it and renders it unable to be hazardous.

a. a hazardous material is exposed to fire.
the five phases of a hazardous material's "life"-production, transportation, storage, use, and disposal. At eachphase, the possibility exists either for controlled, careful use or for shortsighted mismanagement.
Polystyrene is not a hazardous material (dangerous good) in transportation. However, in circumstances where a fire might be a problem, polystyrene, which can readily and rapidly burn, can be a very hazardous material.
No, the folks at the EPA are smart enough to realize that Dihydrogen Monoxide is H20 or water
When receiving a shipment of hazardous materials, the first thing to do is to determine the nature of the hazardous material and then inspect it to ensure there are no leaks.
The five phases of a hazardous material's life typically include production, transportation, storage, use, and disposal. The phases you mentioned—production, transportation, storage, elimination, and disposal—are similar but do not accurately reflect the common terminology used in hazardous material management. "Use" is a crucial phase that describes the application of the material before disposal. "Elimination" is not a standard term used in this context.

Hazardous materials are measured by weight or volume, depending on which material is being measured.
