Post-unloading Inspection and Decontamination

In plain language

After unloading dangerous goods, inspect the packages for leaks or damage. If you find any, inspect the drone's cargo area and clean up any contamination.

Requirement as structured

Packages or overpacks containing dangerous goods must be inspected for damage or leakage upon unloading, and if any is found, the stowage position on the aircraft must be inspected and any hazardous contamination removed.

Original regulatory text

“Packages or overpacks containing dangerous goods must be inspected for signs of damage or leakage upon unloading from the aircraft or unit load device. If evidence of damage or leakage is found, the position where the dangerous goods or unit load device was stowed on the aircraft must be inspected for damage or contamination and any hazardous contamination removed.”
