On December 5, 2012, amendments to the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Regulations came into force. The amendments, among other things,
- introduce the notion of an "overpack" (a large means of containment) and associated label display requirements;
- modify the requirements for placarding large means of containment;
- modify the requirements for the display of a "DANGER" placard; and
- introduce new safety marks for certain dangerous goods.
