Within Chile and for domestic routes, the document on the transport of dangerous goods and the safety data sheet must be submitted in Spanish; and for international shipments, English may also be used as an appropriate and universal form of expression.

CL 2

Considering the undesired consequences from the implementation of a State discrepancy of this nature, we request that the proposed CL 2 variation not be included.

CL 3

Considering the undesired consequences from the implementation of a State discrepancy, and addressing the ICAO suggestions, we have adopted the variation proposed by Kuwait, which establishes the following:

CL 3 All international dangerous goods shipments destined for Chile and that have a not otherwise specified (n.o.s.)* entry must include the material safety data sheet (MSDS) for the product or material.

CL 4

Considering the measure’s local scope of implementation, it is regulated by the Authority within the national regulations; therefore, we request that the proposed CL 4 variation not be included.

CL 5

Based on the original text submitted, it is requested to update the webpage to ensure that exemptions or approvals can be requested.

Dangerous goods which require exemptions or approvals in accordance with the Technical Instructions may be transported only on passenger or cargo aircraft to, from or within Chile with the approval of the Civil Aviation Authority (DGCA). Requests for approval must be submitted no less than 15 days prior to flight operations and 30 days prior to exemption requests.

Based on the proposed State discrepancy, the authorization must be granted to shippers and consignees, considering that the Comisión Chilena de Energía Nuclear [Chilean Nuclear Energy Commission] is the appropriate authority in this matter.

Considering that the proposed State variation does not vary the technical instructions, we request that the proposed CL 7 variation not be included.

In addition to the report to be made to the DGAC, any event occurring in the territory of France involving the transport of radioactive substances must be reported by the operator (or a representative) within 48 hours to the ASN through the ASN teleservices portal (https://teleservices.asn.fr/, under the “Transport of radioactive substances” section).

This obligation to report also applies to:

—   ground handling agents at the airport acting on behalf of the operator;

—   any entity responsible for the loading/unloading of dangerous goods; and

—   any entity responsible for the handling and storage of dangerous goods at the airport

in French territory.

The procedures for reporting to the ASN events associated with the transport of radioactive substances are specified in ASN Guide No. 31 available on the website (www.asn.fr)

A Significant Event Report must be produced within two months of the report of the significant event involving the transport of radioactive substances. It must include a detailed analysis of the event and indicate the corrective measures implemented or planned.

      —   the conveyance of packages of radioactive substances (within the airport area or by air); and

      —   the loading or unloading of packages of radioactive substances onto/from aircraft.

Declarations may be made through the ASN teleservices portal (https://teleservices.asn.fr/, under the “Transport of radioactive substances” section).

Any change in the company name or the UN numbers of the transported packages requires an amending declaration. An update to the declaration must be made immediately if there is any change in the identity or contact information of the contact person for radiological emergencies.

Companies conducting transport operations of sealed radioactive sources or of batches of Category A, B or C sources as defined in Annex 13-7 of the Code of Public Health must receive prior authorization from the ASN.
