In submitting an application for an Equivalency Certificate in relation to Part 5 of the TDG Regulations, an applicant is expected to demonstrate that the proposed activities or proposed means of containment offer a level of safety equivalent to that achieved by complying with the provisions of an existing safety standard that is referenced in Part 5 of the TDG Regulations. Read more information regarding Part 5 of the TDG Regulations and the referenced safety standards. Applicants seeking relief from the requirements of any safety standards referenced in Part 5 of the TDG Regulations must submit additional information to support their application. In addressing item i.

Applicants must also provide all other information that is required in order to demonstrate compliance with all other requirements of that safety standard.
Applicants should consult the Engineering Services Division prior to submitting an application for an Equivalency Certificate in relation to Part 5 of the TDG Regulations. This consultation will be used to provide feedback to the applicant regarding the scope of the application and to confirm the information that will be needed to process the application.
