Common use of Tanker Access and Milk Collection Requirements Clause in Contracts

Tanker Access and Milk Collection Requirements. It is the responsibility of each Supplier to provide safe farm access to Brownes milk tankers or contractor, Milk Supply Manager, agents or representatives. Suppliers must meet the following standards for milk tanker access: • Provide a splayed entrance which complies with the rules in the local authority plan and is accessible by a truck and trailer without the vehicle having to cross the centre of the road when turning left into a farm road. • Provide clear, all-weather road access from the farm entrance to the dairy, suitable for a milk tanker travelling at reasonable speed. • Maintain a clear access from the road to the Supplier’s dairy at all times. • Keep roads free from obstructions at all times (e.g. corrugations, potholes, trees, overhanging or fallen branches, buildings, vehicles, implements and stock). • Roads must have a clearance of 4.25 metres, with one clear metre on each side of the road; have a 200 mm crown and drainage either side of the road; be fenced off and kept clean and well maintained. • Roads must not be used as stock tracks or holding yards. • Ensure that if its roadway is longer than 1 km a milk tanker can safely maintain a speed of up to 50km/hour. • Ensure that if its roadway is shorter than 1km, a milk tanker can safely maintain a speed of up to 15km/hour. • Ensure roads do not have corners on steep roadways which are so sharp that a milk tanker cannot corner safely. • Ensure effluent from roadway crossings drains into the farm’s effluent disposal system. • Make every effort to ensure milk tankers do not need to reverse on farm. • Ensure bridges or crossings are the same width as the road, preferably on a straight section of road and allow safe crossing by a fully laden milk tanker travelling at a reasonable speed. They must be built and maintained so that the milk tanker meets all legal requirements in using and maintaining the bridge or crossing. Please note: if an event occurs which Brownes or its representatives or agents believe will affect the safety of a bridge or crossing, the Supplier must comply with requests from Brownes to have the bridge or crossing inspected by an authorized engineer. Brownes may refuse to use the bridge or crossing until a certificate has been issued confirming the safety of use of the bridge or crossing. For more specific advice about individual farms, Suppliers can contact their Regional Transport Office. APPENDIX D BROWNES AUSTRALIAN STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR THE PURCHASE OF COW’S MILK
