I haven't run across that specific term and I've been in the chemical/pharm industry quite awhile.
It sounds more like something for SD, like a carrier bond or something. As in "is the transportation company insured and bonded?".
Normally when a carrier arrives to make a pickup of chemicals, especialy if it requires Hazmat placarding, the supplier is required to inspect the truck to make sure it is safe and suitable for the product. In addition they are supposed to ensure that the driver has the required hazmat licensce and training. i guess you might also ask for prove of insurance?
I have had clients that use the inspection type 10 to go over a check list of items to be checked for regarding the shipment of certain products. This includes characterisitcs set up to ask the relevant truck inspection questions so known are missed on critical shipments.
