* South Australia - Fatigue management, impending changes will affect primary producers
-- Changes to fatigue management requirements in South Australia will be introduced next month to bring the state into line with other jurisdictions... The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) says the notices exclude the relevant drivers and operators from complying with work and rest hour requirement when transporting live bees within a 200km radius, or transporting fruit, vegetables or grain between a farm and receiving point within 100km. The notices are exempted operators and drivers from using work diaries and keeping records... The NHVR says the notices came into force before the Heavy Vehicle National Law was enacted and are now redundant or inconsistent with the current National Primary Production Work Diary Exemption Notice, which covers the transport of primary produce and fatigue management requirements under the national law...
