Transport Canada published the Transportation of Dangerous Goods by Rail Security Regulations in the Canada Gazette, Part II, on May 15, 2019.

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 The previous Equivalency Certificate is hereby revoked and superseded by the new Equivalency Certificate, which is available on the CPA website.

New editions of standards CSA B339, CSA B340, CSA B341 and CSA B342 are effective since December 31, 2018.

The list of regulatory requirements developed to serve as an information tool for our members was recently updated.  It can be viewed here.

Transport Canada is currently consulting on proposed amendments to the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Regulations. Deadline to provide comments to Transport Canada May 27, 2019.

The Canadian Standards Association (CSA) has released the drafts of the updated safety standards CSA B620, CSA B621 and CSA B622 for a 60-day consultation period. Deadline to provide feedback June 11, 2019.
