  Industrial Treatment of Specified Risk Materials (N26) (245KB PDF)
  The most recent versions of applicable manuals of procedures (below) are designed for internal CFIA use. Each manual consists of four sections (4.1 Background, 4.2 Pre-inspection, 4.3 Site Inspection, and 4.4 Inspectors report). These manuals are still only drafts as they will need to go for translation. However, we have agreed to share them with government and industry to help facilitate the implementation by providing reference documents of standards required to be permitted.
