Rule 127 — Conducting Emergency Radio Test

1. (a)In order to ensure emergency communication channels are in operation, and to ensure employees are familiar with the emergency procedures, the RTC may contact a crew member of any movement or an engineering field employee and direct them to initiate an emergency test call on their respective RTC channel.
2. (b)These tests will be made randomly and employees receiving a request for an emergency test will initiate it on the applicable RTC channel, using the following example for wording: “Emergency test, Emergency test, Emergency test. ABC 1234 East at mile 12 Canada Sub, testing the Emergency call.”
3. (c)Upon completion of the test, the RTC will inform the employee if the test was successful. Employees will then return to their designated standby channel.
