Division 2 PBS design approvals 4 Application for PBS design approval (1) An application for a PBS design approval made under section 22 of the Law must be— (a) in the approved form; and (b) accompanied by— (i) an assessment of the design the subject of the application, carried out by a PBS assessor; and (ii) the prescribed fee for the application. (2) The Regulator may, by notice given to the applicant for the PBS design approval, require the applicant to give the Regulator any additional information the Regulator reasonably requires to decide the application. Example of additional information— The Regulator may ask the applicant to obtain additional parameter sensitivity analyses conducted by a PBS assessor in relation to the design. 5 Review by PBS Review Panel (1) Before approving or rejecting an application for PBS design approval, the Regulator must give a copy of the application to the PBS Review Panel. (2) The PBS Review Panel must, as soon as practicable after receiving the application— (a) review the application having regard to— (i) any approved guidelines relevant to the grant of PBS design approvals; and (ii) the Standards and Vehicle Assessment Rules; and (iii) any operating conditions relevant to the application; and (b) advise and make recommendations to the Regulator about the matters mentioned in paragraph (a). 6 Assessing application For the purposes of section 22(2)(b) of the Law, the Standards and Vehicle Assessment Rules are prescribed. 7 Deciding application The Regulator must decide an application for a PBS design approval as soon as practicable after receiving the PBS Review Panel's advice and recommendations under section 5. 8 Approval—noncompliance with infrastructure standard (1) This section applies in relation to an application for a PBS design approval if the Regulator considers it is likely that a heavy vehicle built to the design the subject of the application will not comply with the Standards and Vehicle Assessment Rules only because it will not comply with 1 or more infrastructure standards. (2) If the Regulator approves the application, the approval must state that any PBS vehicle approval for a heavy vehicle built to the design is subject to a condition that the vehicle may only be operated under an agreement made with— (a) if a road authority for a jurisdiction is responsible for the roads on which the vehicle is likely to be operating—each responsible road authority; and (b) if 1 or more road managers are responsible for the roads on which the vehicle is likely to be operating—each responsible road manager. 9 Approval—noncompliance that poses no additional risk (1) This section applies in relation to an application for a PBS design approval if the Regulator considers that a heavy vehicle built to the design the subject of the application— (a) is not likely to comply with 1 or more standards under the Standards and Vehicle Assessment Rules; and (b) will not pose any additional risk to safety or infrastructure than would be posed by a heavy vehicle— (i) that does comply with the standards; or (ii) that would comply with the standards if particular conditions were imposed on the use of the vehicle and were complied with. Examples— 1 The Regulator may consider that while a heavy vehicle built to a design does not comply with a standard under the Standards and Vehicle Assessment Rules, it will not pose any greater risk than a heavy vehicle that complies with the standard because it will considerably exceed the requirements of another related standard in a way that offsets the failure to comply with the standard. 2 The Regulator may consider that a heavy vehicle built to a design does not comply with safety standard C2 (Gradeability) under the Standards and Vehicle Assessment Rules. However, it is only intended to run on relatively flat roads and can do so as safely as a vehicle that complies with that standard if its operation is restricted to specified roads that are known to be relatively flat. 3 The Regulator may consider that a heavy vehicle built to a design does not comply with a standard under the Standards and Vehicle Assessment Rules. However, the design does meet the purpose and intent of the standard and the vehicle will not pose any greater risk than a vehicle that complies with the standard. (2) If the Regulator approves an application to which subsection (1)(b)(ii) applies, the approval must state that any PBS vehicle approval given for a heavy vehicle built to the design is subject to the particular conditions referred to in that subsection. (3) If the Regulator approves an application to which subsection (1)(b)(i) or (ii) applies, the Regulator must publish the following on the Regulator's website— (a) the type of heavy vehicle to which the design relates; (b) the standards under the Standards and Vehicle Assessment Rules with which a heavy vehicle built to the design is not likely to comply; (c) the reasons the Regulator considers the noncompliance will not pose any additional risk to safety or infrastructure as described in subsection (1)(b); (d) if the approval states that a PBS vehicle approval given for a heavy vehicle built to the design is subject to particular conditions under subsection (2)—a brief description of the conditions. (4) Subsection (3) does not authorise the Regulator to disclose any identifying details of the applicant, the design to which the approval relates, or any other confidential or commercially sensitive information. 10 PBS design approval (1) A PBS design approval must state— (a) the name and address of the person to whom the approval is given; and (b) for an approval of an application mentioned in section 8 or 9—the standards with which the design is not likely to comply. (2) Also, the approval must state the following (each a physical testing requirement)— (a) if the design the subject of the approval has features that the Regulator considers are significantly novel—that before a heavy vehicle built to the design is certified by a PBS vehicle certifier, the vehicle must be assessed by physical testing carried out by a PBS assessor to determine whether the vehicle complies with the Standards and Vehicle Assessment Rules; (b) if the approval relates to an application to which section 9(1)(b) applies—that a heavy vehicle built to the design must be assessed by physical testing carried out by a PBS assessor to determine whether the vehicle will pose any additional risk to safety or infrastructure as described in that section. 11 Approval must state particular conditions for design for vehicle fitted with quad-axle group (1) This section applies to a PBS design approval if the design to which the approval relates is for a type of heavy vehicle fitted with a quad-axle group. (2) The approval must state that any PBS vehicle approval given for a heavy vehicle built to the design that allows a mass of more than 20t on the quad-axle group is subject to the following conditions— (a) the quad-axle group must be fitted with a certified road-friendly suspension system; (b) all axles in the quad-axle group must be fitted with dual tyres; (c) the axles in the quad-axle group must relate to each other through a load-sharing suspension system within the meaning given by section 33(2) of Schedule 2 of the Heavy Vehicle (Vehicle Standards) National Regulation; (d) if the quad-axle group is fitted with a retractable axle, the retractable axle must comply with ADR 43/04; (e) the quad-axle group must be fitted with either— (i) a steerable axle with no less than 12º steering articulation and an effective automatic centering mechanism; or (ii) another steering mechanism proven to be effective in mitigating the impacts of road scrubbing by tyres; (f) a maintenance management accreditation and mass management accreditation of the vehicle must be in force for the operator of the vehicle. (3) In this section— certified road-friendly suspension system has the meaning given by section 3 of the Heavy Vehicle (Mass, Dimension and Loading) National Regulation. steerable axle means a single axle that connects the wheels of a vehicle to a steering mechanism for the vehicle. 12 Refusal of application for PBS design approval If the Regulator refuses an application for a PBS design approval, the Regulator must give the applicant an information notice for the decision to refuse the application. Division 3 PBS vehicle approvals 13 Application for PBS vehicle approval (1) An application for a PBS vehicle approval made under section 23 of the Law must be— (a) in the approved form; and (b) accompanied by— (i) the PBS design approval for the design to which the heavy vehicle is built, and any documentation associated with or relevant to the approval; and (ii) a certificate for the vehicle given by a PBS vehicle certifier under the Vehicle Certification Rules; and (iii) the prescribed fee for the application. (2) The Regulator may, by notice given to the applicant for the PBS vehicle approval, require the applicant to give the Regulator any other additional information the Regulator reasonably requires to decide the application. 14 Additional requirement for particular applications (1) This section applies to an application for a PBS vehicle approval if the PBS design approval for the design to which the vehicle is built includes a physical testing requirement under section 10(2). (2) The application for the PBS vehicle approval may be made only if, before the vehicle is certified by a PBS vehicle certifier, the applicant complies with the physical testing requirement. (3) A copy of the assessment carried out by a PBS assessor under the physical testing requirement must accompany the application for the PBS vehicle approval. 15 Assessing application For the purposes of section 23(2)(b) of the Law, the Vehicle Certification Rules are prescribed. 16 Deciding application The Regulator must decide an application for a PBS vehicle approval as soon as practicable after receiving it. 17 PBS vehicle approval A PBS vehicle approval must state— (a) the name and address of the person to whom the approval is given; and (b) if the vehicle is built to a design the subject of a PBS design approval that was approved under section 8 or 9—the standards with which the vehicle does not comply; and (c) a description of the vehicle the subject of the approval, including its key dimensions and components. 18 Refusal of application for PBS vehicle approval If the Regulator refuses an application for a PBS vehicle approval, the Regulator must give the applicant an information notice for the decision to refuse the application.
