Statute overview

About this statute

This provision sets rules for storing liquids in underground tanks, including when the rules apply, required notices, soil investigations, tank removal after use ends, and financial security for contamination liability. This provision sets technical rules for underground tank filling and monitoring, including anti-static measures, fuel-filling bans in certain fire-risk situations, groundwater monitoring wells, and an alternative equivalent monitoring system with prior technical reporting to the authority. Bij beëindiging van opslag van vloeibare brandstof of afgewerkte olie moet de bodem worden onderzocht en moet het bevoegd gezag de resultaten krijgen. Niet meer gebruikte ondergrondse tanks moesten worden gemeld en daarna verwijderd of onklaar gemaakt binnen de genoemde termijnen, met enkele uitzonderingen. This provision explains the storage rules for underground tanks, including what counts as an underground tank, when storage is banned, when notifications must be made, and when tanks must be removed or made unusable.
