This page provides news involving CANUTEC and the dangerous goods field.
ERGO 2004 features a powerful searching tool for retrieval of multiple PIN. Also, a variety of searches by product name can be performed. ERGO 2004 can even search for all products referenced by a given Guide number. ERGO also includes a "History Window" which provides a history of previously accessed information. This feature enables users to efficiently return to prior search results for quick consultation of emergency response guide information. Response information for specific gases or vapours that are Toxic Inhalation Hazards (TIH) and that are released when certain materials are spilled in water is also accessible from this window.
The service should improve registration with CANUTEC by:
Within the Canadian Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG) Program, we continuously work at keeping the Emergency Response Guidebook up-to-date, including ERGO2004, the downloadable PC version, as well as the ERG On-line, the web browser version. We are in constant contact with end-users of the Guidebook who are mostly fire-fighters, police officers and private emergency responders (normally from industry). Recently, the United States published (on their rulemaking web page) a Notice that may give some people the impression that the opportunity to comment on the Guidebook is limited. That is not the case (the limit does not exist). The three countries have already started work on the preparation for the new printed version (ERG 2008) and are making a special effort to seek comments before the final document is sent for printing. However, keeping electronic versions up-to-date remains a continuing effort. You should know that comments aimed at making the Guidebook more useful (or to correct errors) are always welcomed. In Canada, comments can be sent directly to the Director of CANUTEC (the TDG Program’s transportation emergency centre). By mail: Director, CANUTEC By email: cloutm@tc.gc.ca By phone: 613-947-5052 (CANUTEC Director’s office)
