Scope:

The purpose of this standard is to establish the safety requirements for implements of husbandry used in the local transport and application of anhydrous ammonia for agricultural fertilizer.

Project need:

As part of the contract that CSA has with CASA, we are mandated to publish high priority standards for this topic area, as identified by the Technical Committee S330 Agricultural Machinery. The standards listed above are part of the 2018/2019 and 2019/2020 priority list. These standards will align Canadian requirements with those of international standards in the agricultural machinery topic area.

Note: The information provided above was obtained by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) and is provided as part of a centralized, transparent notification system for new standards development. The system allows SCC-accredited Standards Development Organizations (SDOs), and members of the public, to be informed of new work in Canadian standards development, and allows SCC-accredited SDOs to identify and resolve potential duplication of standards and effort.

Individual SDOs are responsible for the content and accuracy of the information presented here. The text is presented in the language in which it was provided to SCC.
