The TSSA is asking propane fuel suppliers to inspect and advise customers that non-compliance with unvented propane barn heaters in some Ontario agricultural facilities will lead to a termination of fuel supply. While the CPA and its members are at the forefront of promoting safe practices in the handling of propane, the Association believes that asking propane suppliers to threaten to refuse vital propane heating fuel to Ontario farmers as leverage to enforce these safety measures goes too far.
Transport Canada has made administrative updates, with no changes to the clauses on Equivalency Certificate SU 11248 (Ren. 5). The previous Equivalency Certificate is hereby revoked and superseded by the new Equivalency Certificate, which is available on the CPA website.
The CPA is pleased to welcome Rebecca Keeler as the new Vice-President, Regulatory Affairs and Safety.
