Description

Companies that do not have a railway operating approval issued by Alberta Transportation must submit a security management program as part of the application for approval to operate an industrial railway. The purpose of a security management program is to attain the highest sustainable level of security of a dangerous goods transload facility. The end result should meet the needs of a particular operation by establishing a secure site where dangerous goods can be transloaded and stored safely while protecting persons from harm, exposure to the environment and restricting access of non-authorized persons. This guideline is meant to assist companies that do not have such a program in place.
