  An applicant for a CPVD Authority must provide documented evidence of having refreshed their TLIF3060 competency through an RTO and provide documentary evidence of ongoing piloting work (minimum of 40 oversize load movements during the three years). Any traffic control competency attained more than three years prior to the certification date is deemed to have expired.
