TDG training - types of training - Hazardous Materials

NEW!

 

The Regulations Amending the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Regulations TDG (Site Registration Requirements) were published in Part II of the Canada Gazette on October 25, 2023.   You may also recognize this as the Client Information Database or CID amendment. It is accessible through the following URL:SOR/2023-206.  These amendments came into force on the day on which they were published in the Canada Gazette, Part II.

These regulatory changes introduce new requirements to the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Regulations TDG that:

 

Client Identification Database (CID)

 

- require that persons who import, offer for transport, handle or transport dangerous goods at a site located in Canada, that they own or operate, to be registered in the Client Identification Database (CID); and

- require that all registered persons provide administrative information and information concerning the dangerous goods and operations being conducted at their respective Site/s located in Canada that they own or operate.

Those that are required to register in the database will have up to one (1) year after the coming into force date to complete their registration, i.e., until October 25, 2024.  For more information regarding the registration database and the registration process, you can visit the https://tc.canada.ca/en/dangerous-goods/client-identification-database-cid.
