Today the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has implemented its mandatory fingerprint-identification background checks for HazMat drivers. All states are now required to have a station where drivers seeking HazMat endorsement could have their fingerprints collected and transmitted to the TSA and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
