Ongoing Consultation & Updates

We remind you that the CSA B622-14 – Selection and use of highway tanks, TC portable tanks, and ton containers for the transportation of dangerous goods, Class 2 requires that diesel engines on highway tanks and portable tanks containing dangerous goods of Class 2.1 and being used during loading and off-loading shall be equipped with an automatic engine air intake shut-off device. These devices are used to prevent diesel engine runaway if exposed to flammable vapours that may result in catastrophic engine failure and risk of explosion and/or fire.

On July 12, 2017, an amendment to the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Regulations introduced ambulatory references to allow stakeholders to use the most recent versions of certain international codes and safety standards for a means of containment.
