INTRODUCTION

The Fuel Safety Handbook is intended to provide the basic information which is essential to gas technicians working with natural gas and propane fuel gases in Ontario.

The Fuel Safety Handbook is intended to address the knowledge needed by Ontario gas technicians seeking to fulfill the requirements of the new Training and Certification Regulation (348/96) under the Energy Act, effective September 1, 1996. It remains the responsibility of the users of this handbook to ensure that the Fuel Safety Training Program is accredited by the Technical Standards and Safety Authority (formerly the Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations). Individuals who complete a Fuel Safety Training Program are required to submit their certificate of completion to the Technical Standards and Safety Authority in order to update the data bank and have the integrated certificate issued.
