Segregation and separation (Canada)

RegSenseezExplanationCanadaDangerous goodsPipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), DOTHazmat SafetyBest ResultsSegregation and separation - Dangerous GoodsFocus AreaEnglishTransportationLoading and unloading - Dangerous Goods

There are hazardous materials regulations in the 49 CFR that provide segregation restrictions for the transport of certain materials.

Scope

In Canada, the TDG Regulations only have segregation rules for Class 1, Explosives.

Regulatory citations

Key definitions

  • None

Summary of requirements

In Part V - Means of Containment, explosives are assigned Compatibility Groups, designated by letters following the division number. Explosives may not be transported together in the same means of transport unless the compatibility group letters for the materials match.

Even though there are no other restrictions, different types of dangerous goods should be separated so that there would not be a mixing of materials if an incident/accident occurred.

Refer to the 49 CFR Segregation Table for Hazardous Materials for guidance.
