The RMA is seeking member representation on the Safety Codes Council’s Private Sewage sub-council.
The RMA is seeking up to two nominees for the sub-council to be forwarded for consideration by the Safety Codes Council. Members who would like to be nominated for the sub-council should be experts in the discipline and actively engaged in the safety codes system. Sub-councils typically meet four times per year.
In your application or nomination, please provide a brief profile that lists your background, experience, and contact information.
Please note, the positions can go to either elected or non-elected members of a municipality.
Within their disciplines, the technical sub-councils are responsible for the following:
- developing and recommending to the Minister, safety codes and standards
- promoting harmonization of safety standards and practices
- certifying and designating safety codes officers
- accrediting municipalities, corporations, and agencies to deliver safety code services
- administering the appeals of orders, certifications, and variance refusals issued under the Safety Codes Act; and
- overseeing the delivery of permits and inspections for Albertans who live in unaccredited areas of the province through the Alberta Safety Codes Authority (ASCA), including performing all compliance monitoring services for storage tank systems
As these are volunteer positions, members are not paid, but the Safety Codes Council will reimburse its members for all expenses incurred. Per diems are paid by the nominating municipality. More details on the role are available in the position descriptions for the private sewage sub-council.
The Council is an equal opportunity organization and values diversity of all kinds. For more information about the Safety Codes Council, please visit www.safetycodes.ab.ca.
