Part 2 Key concepts Division 1 Kinds of goods 30 Goods too dangerous to be transported by rail—Act, s 442 Goods are too dangerous to be transported by rail if they are— (a) mentioned in the ADG Code, appendix 5 as goods too dangerous to be transported; or (b) determined under section 17(1)(g) to be too dangerous to be transported by rail. 31 Dangerous goods—Act, s 442 (1) Goods are dangerous goods if they— (a) are named in a specific entry in the ADG Code, appendix 2, column 2 but not in a generic entry or in an entry where the letters “N.O.S” are shown as part of the proper shipping name for the goods; or (b) satisfy the criteria in the ADG Code, appendix 2, column 2 or 9; or
s 32 21 s 33 Transport Infrastructure (Dangerous Goods by Rail) Regulation 2002 (c) satisfy the criteria in a special provision of the ADG Code that is applied by the ADG Code appendix 2, column 7; or (d) are determined under section 17(1)(a) to be dangerous goods; or (e) satisfy the UN dangerous goods tests and criteria for determining whether goods are dangerous goods. (2) However, goods are not dangerous goods if they are determined under section 17(1)(b) not to be dangerous goods. 32 Classes of dangerous goods (1) In this regulation, a reference to— (a) a class of dangerous goods is a reference to the class to which the goods are assigned under subsection (2); and (b) a class by number, or number and letter, is a reference to the number, or number and letter, of the class to which the goods are assigned. (2) Dangerous goods are assigned to a class if the goods— (a) are assigned to the class in the ADG Code, appendix 2, column 3; or (b) are assigned to the class in a special provision of the ADG Code applying to the goods; or (c) satisfy the criteria in the ADG Code, appendix 2, column 9 for assignment to the class; or (d) are determined under section 17(1)(c) to be dangerous goods of the class; or (e) satisfy the UN dangerous goods tests and criteria for assignment to the class. 33 Subsidiary risk (1) In this regulation, a reference to—
s 34 22 s 34 Transport Infrastructure (Dangerous Goods by Rail) Regulation 2002 (a) dangerous goods with a subsidiary risk is a reference to the dangerous goods assigned the subsidiary risk under subsection (2); and (b) a subsidiary risk by number is a reference to the number of the subsidiary risk with which the dangerous goods are assigned. (2) Dangerous goods are assigned a subsidiary risk if the goods— (a) are assigned the subsidiary risk in the ADG Code, appendix 2, column 4; or (b) are assigned the subsidiary risk in a special provision of the ADG Code applying to the goods; or (c) satisfy the criteria in the ADG Code, appendix 2, column 9 for assignment of the subsidiary risk; or (d) are determined under section 17(1)(d) to be dangerous goods with the subsidiary risk; or (e) satisfy the UN dangerous goods tests and criteria for assignment to the subsidiary risk. 34 Packing group (1) In this regulation, a reference to— (a) a packing group of dangerous goods is a reference to the packing group to which the goods are assigned under subsection (2); and (b) a packing group by number is a reference to the number of the packing group to which the goods are assigned. (2) Dangerous goods (other than dangerous goods of class 1, 2 or 7) are assigned to a packing group if the goods— (a) are assigned to the packing group in the ADG Code, appendix 2, column 5; or (b) are assigned to the packing group in a special provision of the ADG Code applying to the goods; or (c) satisfy the criteria in the ADG Code, appendix 2, column 9 for assignment to the packing group; or
s 35 23 s 35 Transport Infrastructure (Dangerous Goods by Rail) Regulation 2002 (d) are determined under section 17(1)(e) to be assigned to the packing group; or (e) satisfy the UN dangerous goods tests and criteria for assignment to the packing group. 35 Incompatible goods, container or transfer equipment (1) Dangerous goods or other goods are incompatible with dangerous goods if— (a) under the ADG Code, the goods are incompatible with the dangerous goods; or (b) the goods are determined under section 17(1)(f) to be incompatible with the dangerous goods; or (c) when the goods are mixed, or otherwise brought into contact, with the dangerous goods, the goods are likely to interact with the dangerous goods and increase risk because of the interaction. (2) However in a proceeding in which incompatibility is an issue, goods are taken not to be incompatible with dangerous goods if— (a) the goods are incompatible with the dangerous goods only because of subsection (1)(a) or (b); and (b) it is established that, when the goods are mixed, or otherwise brought into contact with the dangerous goods, the goods are not likely to interact with the dangerous goods and increase risk because of the interaction. (3) A tank or container is incompatible with dangerous goods if the tank or container is constructed of material that, when the goods are brought into contact with the tank or container, is likely to interact with the goods and increase risk because of the interaction. Example of increased risk because of interaction Significant structural weakening of the tank or container. (4) Transfer equipment for use in the transport of dangerous goods is incompatible with the goods if the equipment is
s 36 24 s 38 Transport Infrastructure (Dangerous Goods by Rail) Regulation 2002 constructed of material that, when the goods are brought into contact with the equipment, is likely to interact with the goods and increase risk because of the interaction. Example of increased risk because of interaction Failure of the transfer equipment resulting in leakage of dangerous goods. Division 2 Packages, packaging and loads 36 Packages and packaging (1) A package of dangerous goods or other goods is the complete product of the packing of the goods for transport by rail, and consists of the goods and their packaging.
