42、st edition of CSA D270, Multi-functional activity buses. This Standard was developed to address the need for a safer alternative to the use of buses not classified as school buses in the transportation of passengers to child care, pre-primary, primary, youth, or community activities or facilities.Th

43、is Standard is considered suitable for use for conformity assessment within the stated scope of the Standard.This Standard was prepared by the Technical Committee on School Buses, under the jurisdiction of the Strategic Steering Committee on Mechanical and Industrial Equipment Safety, and has been f

44、ormally approved by the Technical Committee.June 2008Notes: (1) Use of the singular does not exclude the plural (and vice versa) when the sense allows.(2) Although the intended primary application of this Standard is stated in its Scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibility of

45、the users of the Standard to judge its suitability for their particular purpose.(3) This publication was developed by consensus, which is defined by CSA Policy governing standardization Code of good practice for standardization as “substantial agreement. Consensus implies much more than a simple maj

46、ority, but not necessarily unanimity”. It is consistent with this definition that a member may be included in the Technical Committee list and yet not be in full agreement with all clauses of this publication.(4) CSA Standards are subject to periodic review, and suggestions for their improvement wil

47、l be referred to the appropriate committee.(5) All enquiries regarding this Standard, including requests for interpretation, should be addressed to Canadian Standards Association, 5060 Spectrum Way, Suite 100, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada L4W 5N6. Requests for interpretation should(a) define the pro

48、blem, making reference to the specific clause, and, where appropriate, include an illustrative sketch;(b) provide an explanation of circumstances surrounding the actual field condition; and(c) be phrased where possible to permit a specific “yes” or “no” answer.Committee interpretations are processed

49、 in accordance with the CSA Directives and guidelines governing standardization and are published in CSAs periodical Info Update, which is available on the CSA Web site at www.csa.ca.
