  2. Overview of Presentation Chemistry Industry Association of Canada (CIAC) Transportation and Incident Information Responsible Care ® TransCAER ®

  3. What is the CIAC? • 45+ leading companies that produce, manage, move, distribute and recycle industrial chemicals and plastics; representing about 60% of total Canadian production • $26 billion annual sales • CIAC Responsible Care Partners who transport or manage chemicals

  5. CIAC Product Movements, Ontario • Majority of goods transported by road or rail • Of those that are regulated, TDG Class 8 followed by TDG Class 3 are the most common • Both small and large means of containment • Both mixed and homogeneous loads

  6. Question? During which mode of transport are there more dangerous goods incidents? • Road • Rail

  7. Transport Canada Answer Over 90% of in transit dangerous goods incidents occur on the road

  8. Question? Where do most of the dangerous goods transportation incidents occur? • In transit • Loading/unloading

  9. Transport Canada Answer Only about 30% of dangerous goods incidents occur in transit

  10. Question? What is the trend in the number of dangerous goods transportation incidents in Quebec? • Going up • Steady • Going down

  11. Transport Canada Answer Significant decline in TDG incidents over the last 10 years (From ~31 per year to ~15 per year)

  12. So... If incidents are more likely to occur at a location, rather than along the transportation route, and if the number of incidents are trending down … …why are we here today?

  13. We are here because… • Of our concern for your community safety and security, and • We need and rely upon safe and efficient transportation to receive raw materials and to ship products to customers in North America and exports to global markets

  14. CIAC Responsible Care • Condition of membership since 1985 • Commitment to improved health, safety and environmental performance and to social responsibility • Ethic and three Codes of Practice underpin the Responsible Care management system

  15. Transportation Elements • Transportation risk management • Select safe mode • Select safe routes • Select safe carriers • Transportation emergency response • TEAP III • TransCAER • Communicate with communities along transportation routes

  16. But… While Responsible Care has played a key role in reducing the frequency and severityof incidents involving transportation of dangerous goods... ...incidents do happen! So we have...

  17. A transportation emergency response program designed to have the capability and capacity to safely and efficiently respond, control, contain, stabilize and mitigate the impacts of a chemical transportation incident • Standards for CIAC member companies and their transportation emergency response contractors with assessments for both

  18. TransCAER® Transportation Community Awareness concerning Emergency Response

  19. TransCAER A voluntary initiative led by CIAC and its partners to assist communities – geographic and organizational – to be aware of: • Our products and transportation routes • CIAC member companies willingness to share information and provide assistance in case of an incident, and • What we are doing to reduce risks

  20. TransCAER Ways and Means • Ontario Regional TransCAER Committee (ORTC) • All Ontario CIAC members and partners participate • TransCAER outreach can include a brochure, meeting, presentation, seminar, demonstration, training, exercise, event, people... • Delivered along the transportation routes
