| Abstract |
Recommendation adopted by the French national technical committees for the transportation and chemical industries during their meetings on 9 and 16 June 1994, respectively. Because of the hazards they cause during their transportation, dangerous materials require special preventive measures. Contents: general information (definitions of terms, main regulatory texts in force); general preventive measures; technical preventive measures concerning tanker trucks and other means of transport (vehicle safety, access points of loading and unloading stations, loading and unloading zones etc.); safety measures relating to procedures involving tanker trucks and other means of transport (periodic controls, vehicle reception, safety checks after the arrival of a vehicle etc.); commentary. Proposal for a "check list for procedures involved in the transfer of hazardous liquids". |
