- works effectively with others to undertake and complete bulk water truck operations that meets all of the required outcomes including:
- using a range of communications techniques and equipment to convey information to others
- complying with written and verbal reporting requirements and procedures
- demonstrates completion of conducting bulk water truck operations that safely, effectively and efficiently meets all of the required outcomes on more than one (1) occasion including:
- correctly positioning water cart at load and discharge/distribution points and load water cart to capacity
- distributing water efficiency across haul roads
- adjusting driving and operating techniques to suit the work environment and ground conditions
- completing a minimum of 500 metres bulk water truck operations

The candidate must demonstrate knowledge of the following when conducting bulk water truck operations:
- identifying equipment processes, technical capability and limitations
- identifying, interpreting and using geological and technical data (basic)
- using mine operational systems
- being prepared for fire/accident/emergency
- identifying signs of operator fatigue and how it should be managed
- applying chemical and fuel safety measures
- applying operational, maintenance and basic diagnostics
- completing housekeeping activities
Assessment Conditions
- An assessor of this unit must satisfy the requirements of the NVR/AQTF or their successors; and Industry regulations for certification and licensing; and,
- this unit must be assessed in the context of this sector’s work environment; and,
- this unit must be assessed in compliance with relevant legislation/regulation and using policies, procedures, processes and operational manuals directly related to the industry sector for which it is being assessed; and,
- assessment may be conducted in conjunction with the assessment of other Units of Competency; and,
- assessment must confirm consistent performance can be applied in a range of relevant workplace circumstances; and,
- assessors must demonstrate the performance evidence, and knowledge evidence as outlined in this Unit of Competency, and through the minimum years of current* work experience specified below in an Industry sector relevant to the outcomes of the unit; or,
- where the assessor does not meet experience requirements a co-assessment or partnership arrangement must exist between the qualified assessor and an Industry subject matter expert. The Industry subject matter expert should hold the unit being assessed (or an equivalent unit) and/or demonstrate equivalence of skills and knowledge at the unit level. An Industry technical expert must also demonstrate skills and knowledge from the minimum years of current work experience specified below in the Industry sector, including time spent in roles related to the unit being assessed; and,
- assessor and Industry subject matter expert requirements differ depending on the Australian Qualifications Framework Level (AQF) of the qualification being assessed and/or Industry Sector as follows:
