Correct answer
A. The H endorsement (hazardous materials), obtained with a knowledge test, fingerprinting, and a security threat assessment

Hauling placarded hazmat requires the H endorsement and the background security check that goes with it. The combined H and X endorsement covers hazmat on a tank vehicle, which many fuel drivers hold.
