Notifiable Low Risk Dealings (NLRD)

Is my proposal a Notifiable Low Risk Dealing (NLRD)?

Dealings assessed over time as posing low risk.  These are divided into two subgroups, PC1 and PC2, and several classes as outlined in Schedule 3 Notifiable Low Risk Dealings. 

Requirements are as follows:  

1. Work is not allowed to commence until written approval is obtained from the IBC.
2. All NLRDs must be contained within a Certified Facility at the corresponding level (i.e. PC2 NLRDs must be conducted in OGTR certified facilities to a minimum of PC2 level)
3. Transport of GMOs between various facilities at the University or to other destinations must comply with the Transport guidelines.
4. Anual reports are submitted each year.
