Next to a proper shipping name, the Hazardous Materials Table shows a 'D' in its first column. What does that symbol mean?

Answer options

Why

Column 1 symbols explain how an entry applies to different kinds of transportation. A 'D' signals that the proper shipping name is appropriate for domestic transportation but may not be correct for international shipments; generic names are marked 'G', and water-only coverage is marked 'W'.
