This document provides information and requirements regarding the Notification to Captain (NOTOC). It states that accurate information about any dangerous goods being carried as cargo must be provided to the pilot-in-command prior to departure. This information should be on a dedicated form called a NOTOC. The NOTOC must include confirmation that packages are undamaged and not leaking, details on live cargo, and remain available to the pilot during flight. When an aircraft has a change in pilot, information on dangerous goods that remain on board must be provided. The NOTOC must include specific details about each dangerous good including identification number, proper shipping name, class, packing group, and unloading airport.
