undertaking provides the categorisation of the passenger stock as defined in the statutorycalculation regulations. Further details of this statement are given in appendix 8. ◄3.4.2.3 Soil protectionThe operating processes of the railway undertakings entail risks in terms of contamination of the soiland ballast with fuels, coolants, lubricants, etc. Small quantities of these contaminants can leak fromtrains on the ballast under normal running conditions. This risk can be minimised through good andregular maintenance. Moreover, soil and ballast contamination can occur as a result of incidents.The Soil Protection Act prescribes that ProRail and the railway undertakings take measures aimed atminimising the risk of soil contamination and, in the case that soil contamination nevertheless doesoccur, that they take all necessary measures to limit the effects thereof.If contamination is ascertained of the ballast or soil of the network, ProRail will conduct a survey todetermine the cause. In case of indications that the contamination has been caused by a railwayundertaking, the latter will be notified immediately. ProRail will also involve the railway undertaking inthe survey. Pursuant to the provisions of the Soil Protection Act, ProRail will notify the competentauthorities of the soil contamination. The appropriate remediation measures will be based on theinstructions of the competent authority. The remediation costs will be recovered from the railwayundertaking if it indeed appears to have been the party causing the contamination.Rolling stock tanks containing diesel or gas oil involve a raised risk of soil contamination. The sameapplies to other forms of transhipment of hazardous liquids. Locomotives should only be refuelled atthe designated refuelling systems stated in appendix 21. The refuelling facility at Sloe railway yardconsists of a liquidproof floor with a sump, containing an oil separator and sewage connection.Refuelling from a mobile tanker is only possible at Sloe railway yard.Refuelling outside one of the refuelling systems stated in appendix 21 is permitted only in exceptionalcases. These cases are:a. Refuelling at an isolated operation for slow work trains that are unable to reach fixed refuellingsystems.b. If fixed refuelling systems cannot be accessed due to work on the infrastructure.c. Other rail materials, such as equipment and manual tools can be refuelled at building sites.The cases under a. and b. must comply with the PFS 30 requirements for temporary, non-stationerystorage and delivery systems. The cases under c must comply with the conditions of Section B3 of theNetherlands Soil Protection Directive (NRB).Regulations to be agreed upon:► ProRail wishes to lay down the arrangements concerning soil protection (handling in case ofsignalled ballast contamination and refuelling) by means of the General Terms and Conditions(see Section appendix 5) and the Operational Conditions (see Section 3.3 of appendix 6) to theAccess Agreement. ◄3.4.3 Dangerous goodsHandling of dangerous goods at railway yardsThe railway yards below are equipped for the handling and stabling of wagons with dangerous goods.Table 3.6Railway yards equipped for the handling and stabling of wagons with hazardous goodsRailway yardAmsterdam Westhaven Delfzijl Oosterhoorn EmmenAxel connection Venlo Deventer FreightBlerick Acht Amersfoort FreightHengelo Onnen RoosendaalLage Zwaluwe Moerdijk Sloe 1 and 2Sittard Kijfhoek see Network Statement 2014 Betuwe Route:Terneuzen connection Sas van Gent Rotterdam Europoort; Rotterdam Pernis; RotterdamBotlek; Rotterdam Waalhaven Zuid; RotterdamNetwork Statement 2014 Combined Network - version 1.0 dated 9 January 2013 page 32
Maasvlakte; Valburg CUPThe above supply is the result of deliberate investment by ProRail in, instructions by the competentauthority or generic safety regulations required for the fitting out and organisation of railway yardsinvolved in the handling of trains and wagons containing dangerous goods.The available railway yards are selected to accommodate shunting processes near the start or endpoint of rail transport flows to/from potential shippers/recipients/processes of dangerous goods, as wellas the necessary in transit shunting processes (locomotive exchange / direction change / stabling).ProRail has for timetabling purposes published the environment checklist on its website (seewww.prorail.nl > capaciteitsverdeling > dienstregeling). This checklist provides an overview of allrailway yards where it is legally permitted to date to shunt trains and wagons containing dangerousgoods. This checklist will in time be brought in line with the above supply.ProRail will handle requests from titleholders for the designation of other/supplementary railway yardsin accordance with the procedures as described in Chapter 3.9.1.The handling of trains with dangerous goods at railway yards is subject to environmental permits.Chapter 3.4.2.1 discusses the application procedure for an environmental permit pursuant to theWabo Act (Environmental Law (General Conditions) Act).Rules of procedure► In the event that railway undertakings collectively apply for more capacity than is locally permitted,the permit holder may, as part of the integral capacity management, opt to subject individualapplicant's capacity allocations to specific restrictive conditions and regulations, in such a manneras to ensure that the total allocated capacity complies with the local permit conditions (inaccordance with the Railways Capacity Allocation Decree). ◄In order to comply with statutory obligations regarding external safety on railway yards, ProRailrequires railway undertakings to provide supplements and corrections to the data collected by ProRail.Further details of this statement are given in appendix 8.Carriage of dangerous goodsRoute sections on which the carriage of wagons containing consignments of dangerous goods isexcluded or restricted due to local environmental risks are listed in appendix 9.The periodic report on external safety is further described in appendix 8.3.4.4 Tunnel restrictionsUser regulationsRailway tunnels are generally fitted with specific safety and evacuation facilities. Further informationon safety in railway tunnels is available in the infrastructure register, via the website of ProRail(www.prorail.nl > vervoerders > infrastructuur). This concerns the tunnels below.• Hem tunnel (Amsterdam Sloterdijk – Zaandam)• Velser tunnel (Santpoort Noord – Beverwijk)• Schiphol tunnel (Hoofddorp – Amsterdam Riekerpolder junction)• Rijswijk tunnel (The Hague Moerwijk - Delft)• Willems railway tunnel (Rotterdam Central - Rotterdam Zuid)• Roofing Barendrecht (Rotterdam Lombardijen – Zwijndrecht)• Best tunnel (Boxtel – Eindhoven Beukenlaan)• Drontermeer tunnel (Dronten – Kampen Zuid)User restrictionSpecific tunnel related traffic and transport limitations are stated in appendix 9.3.4.5 Bridge restrictionsRailway bridges that are opened according to a fixed timetable or on call (‘request arrangements’) toenable the passage of shipping are shown in appendix 18.
