Have your say on the new guidance for major hazard facilities
from ThinkSafe vol. 2 no. 1 January 2020
by Department of Energy, Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety
The Department is in the process of updating the guide covering Major Hazard Facility (MHF) safety reports. The new document will detail the Chief Dangerous Goods Officer’s (CO) expectations of safety reports submitted under the Dangerous Goods Safety (Major Hazard Facilities) Regulations 2007.
The aim of this document is to provide operators with reference information aligned to the legislation and CO’s criteria. It will, therefore, assist with the development, submission and approval process of safety reports.
The guide was released for comment in December 2019 and MHF operators are encouraged to provide feedback.
Public comment period closes 5.00 pm, Friday 14 February 2020.
Access to the consultation page, including a cover sheet and submission instructions, is available from the Department's website.
