You will need this permit if your work involves unsupervised access to high consequence dangerous goods (HCDG) such as ammonium nitrate.
Dangerous goods are described as substances and articles that are potentially hazardous to people and property. In Victoria, ammonium nitrate and mixtures or emulsions containing more than 45% ammonium nitrate are considered high consequence dangerous goods. They may be corrosive, flammable, explosive, oxidizing or reactive with water. Certain dangerous goods are designated as high consequence (HCDG) by the Agency.
This permit can only be granted to the employee of an HCDG licence holder. It entitles the permit holder to conduct the activities which the HCDG licence holder has authorised you to perform and has recorded in their security plan.
