INTRODUCTION TO DG SURVEILLANCE AUDIT

India is a contracting state to the Convention of International Civil Aviation and a
member of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has an obligation to
promote the safe, orderly and efficient operation of aviation activities. To meet state
obligations, DGCA has laid down national regulations to ensure compliance with various
Standard & Recommended Practices laid down by ICAO in Annexes to the Convention.
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is a regulatory body dealing mainly with
safety issues. DGCA is also responsible for regulation of air transport services
to/from/within India and for enforcement of civil air regulations, airworthiness and air
safety.
Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has developed a system of surveillance to

ensure continuing organizational, as well as individual, professional competency of
licence/rating/certificate/approval holders, continuing capacity to maintain a safe and
regular operation by air operators and service providers and continuing capacity to
properly maintain aviation related Aircraft Maintenance Organizations and other areas
such as Dangerous Goods, Aerodromes and Air Navigation Services.
The purpose of the Surveillance is to help DGCA to understand the state of compliance
of the audited organizations and to identify corrective actions that may needed to
ensure the performance of the organizations meet the regulatory requirements and
safety standards.
In order to effectively implement the Surveillance Programme, a Division within DGCA

for Dangerous Goods has been established under the control of Chief Inspector-
Dangerous Goods. The Office of the Chief Inspector is located in DGCA- Headquarters in
New Delhi.
To carry out the Surveillance in a scheduled and organized manner, specialists in the
field of Dangerous Goods from the industry and service providers have been appointed as
DG Inspectors. These Inspectors are required to carry out the inspection of the
operators and other agencies such as shippers, freight forwarders, airport operators etc.
in order to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Aircraft (Carriage of Dangerous
Goods) Rules 2003, Technical Instructions on the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by
Air. Detailed guidelines and procedures for carry out such audits have been detailed in
this Dangerous Goods Inspectors Handbook which is based on Civil Aviation
Requirement, Section 11- Air Transport, Series D Part I, Issue III dated 08th January
2010.

F. No. 9/38/2009-IR
Subject: Guidelines and Procedure for Dangerous Goods Inspections.
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 The Aircraft (Carriage of Dangerous Goods) Rules, 2003 have been framed to give effect
to the provisions of Annex 18 to the Chicago Convention and the Technical
Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air issued by ICAO. Since
the carriage of dangerous goods by air has a direct bearing on the safety of aircraft
operations, strict compliance with these provisions is of paramount importance.
1.2 The carriage of dangerous goods is a highly skilled job, which requires proper packing,
labelling and handling etc. during various stages such as storage, loading, unloading
and transportation. As such, the responsibilities of all the agencies/personnel engaged
in the transportation of dangerous goods have been clearly defined in the Aircraft
(Carriage of Dangerous Goods) Rules, 2003.
1.3 Rule 10A of the said Rules provides that the Director General of Civil Aviation or any other
officer authorized in this behalf by the Central Government may inspect any services,
equipment, documents and records. The Central Government has authorized various
officers to enter any place and carry out the inspection.
1.4 The Dangerous Goods Inspectors are required to carry out inspection of the airline
operators as well as other agencies such as shippers, freight forwarders, airport
operators etc. in order to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Aircraft
(Carriage of Dangerous Goods) Rules, 2003 and the Technical Instructions for the
Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air. Detailed guidelines and procedure for
carrying out such inspections have been laid down in this CAR.
1.5 This CAR is issued under Rule 13 of the Aircraft (Carriage of Dangerous Goods) Rules,
2003.
1.6 This CAR is issued in supersession of CAR Section 3 Series L Part II issue II dated 5th
May 2009.

2. DANGEROUS GOODS DIVISION

2.1 In order to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Aircraft (Carriage of Dangerous
Goods) Rules, 2003, officers from Airworthiness and Flight Inspection Directorates
were mandated to carry out inspection of the agencies engaged in the carriage of
dangerous goods. However, in view of the acute shortage of manpower, this work could
not be accomplished satisfactorily. It has, therefore, been decided to establish a
separate Division in the DGCA Headquarters to deal with all matters relating to
dangerous goods. This Division shall be headed by an officer not below the rank of
Deputy Director General who shall be designated as the Chief Inspector of Dangerous
Goods.
2.2 The Chief Inspector of Dangerous Goods shall be responsible for ensuring compliance

Goods Inspectors attached to these offices.
2.3 A few Instructors from the approved Dangerous Goods Training Organisations have been
selected and attached to the Regional Directors/Controllers of Airworthiness for
carrying out inspection and surveillance of dangerous goods. They shall report to the
concerned Director/Controller of Airworthiness who shall coordinate with the Chief
Inspector of Dangerous Goods. These persons shall be designated as Seconded
Dangerous Goods Inspectors and shall
i) assist the DGCA in carrying out the Dangerous Goods inspection/audit/surveillance;

APPENDIX
Guidelines and procedure for Dangerous Goods Inspections

1. Organization and procedures
a) The aim of the inspection is to assess the suitability of the organization and
procedures established by the operator and the facilities provided for the handling of
dangerous goods, taking into account the nature and scale of the operation. If the
operator uses a handling agent, the liaison between them shall also be checked to
confirm that each knows what is expected of them by the other.
b) The inspection needs to confirm that the operator has sufficient resources for the
intended operation and has identified those individuals who have specific
responsibilities and has made them aware of their responsibilities. It shall ensure
that reference manuals are up-to-date and available to staff who need to use them.
The manner of loading and stowage on aircraft shall be checked to ensure it is
carried out according to the requirements.
c) For inspection of the organization and procedures, the form available at Attachment I
shall be used.
2. Consignment Inspection
a) The aim of checking consignments of dangerous goods shall be to determine that,

as far as can be ascertained from an external check, the packages and their
associated documents comply with the laid down requirements. It shall also
determine, as far as possible, that associated documentation (e.g. air waybill,
dangerous goods transport document, acceptance checklist, written notification to
commander) meets all applicable requirements. Inspections shall be carried out in
the operators or handling agents premises and after the dangerous goods have
been accepted for transport or whilst they are still in the care of the operator or
handling agent.
b) Both export and import consignments shall be inspected, but with more emphasis on
export consignments. If a consignment is found which does not comply with the
requirements, action shall be taken to prevent it from being loaded on an aircraft
and an investigation made into how it was offered for transport and accepted.
Although import consignments have already been carried by air, the finding of
evidence of non-compliance with the requirements shall be reported to the State
where the goods were originally loaded on an aircraft.

EDITION 2010 40

3. Operations Manual and other Staff Instructions
a) A check of the Operations Manual and other staff instructions should be made during
the organization and procedures inspection referred to above. The Technical
Instructions require the Operations Manual or other manuals to contain certain
information when the operator intends to carry dangerous goods. In addition to this
information, the Operations Manual needs to contain sufficient guidance material
and instructions to enable all those concerned (both ground staff and flight and
cabin crew) to meet their responsibilities. The Operations Manual inspection aims to
confirm the information provided is adequate, complete and up-to-date. It may also
be confirmed that the handling agent has copies of the relevant parts of the Manual
or other instructions concerning the operators policy and procedures in regard to
carriage of dangerous goods.
b) When an operator does not intend to carry dangerous goods, the Operations Manual
should still be checked to ensure it contains information about the policy of the
operator in regard to dangerous goods and instructions about the carriage of
passengers with dangerous goods.
4. Staff Training
The training inspection shall be carried out to confirm that all relevant staff of the
operator or handling agent have been trained, and also that the training has been to the
required standard and given within the required periods.
5. Training Programmes
a) Rule 12 of the Aircraft (Carriage of Dangerous Goods) Rules, 2003, provides that the
dangerous goods training programmes established by or on behalf of operators
shall be approved by the State of the operator. Inspection may be carried out to
confirm that training meets the requirements laid down in CAR Section 3 Series L
Part III.
b) An operator, depending on its size, may have several training programmes

customized to the individual responsibilities of its staff. Even if the operator does not
carry dangerous goods, there is still a need for training programmes for both
operational and ground staff dealing with passengers and their baggage.
6. Passenger warning notices

a) The Technical Instructions requires notices, warning passengers of the prohibition of
dangerous goods in baggage, to be prominently displayed and in sufficient number
so that passengers see them during their normal progression through departure
procedures. The method of inspecting notices is to check those areas in terminals
where the operator (or the handling agent) issues tickets, checks in passengers and
assembles them to board an aircraft.
b) For this purpose, the form available at Attachment II shall be used.

EDITION 2010 41

7. Results of inspections
The results of a dangerous goods inspection shall be recorded so as to produce a

record of what was seen and noted at the time. The record should be sufficiently
comprehensive to identify any faults or deficiencies, since these will need to be
reflected in the letter to the operator to take remedial action which shall be completed in
the specified time frame.
8. Frequency of inspections
The Technical Instructions does not specify the frequency of such inspections.
However, the Manual of Procedures for Operations Inspection, Certification and
Continued Surveillance (Doc 8335), produced by ICAO, recommends that all significant
aspects of the operators procedures and practices should be inspected at least once in
every twelve-month period. As such, all aspects related to dangerous goods of an
operator engaged in the carriage of dangerous goods as cargo shall be inspected on
an annual basis. Operators choosing not to carry dangerous goods as cargo may be
inspected at least once in two years.
