4.6.8.1.(2)

Intent 1:

To exempt certain fuel dispensing stations from the application of Sentence 4.6.8.1.(1), which would otherwise require attendants, and permit unattended fuel dispensing stations [self-service outlets], if certain conditions are met [the stations do not serve the general public and the fuel dispensing is done by authorized customers, i.e. having received proper training or instructions in safe dispensing procedures].

These conditions are to limit the probability of:

• the escape of liquid, which could lead to the ignition of vapour from a nearby ignition source, which could lead to harm to persons, and
• a fire or explosion hazard, which could lead to the ignition of vapour from a nearby ignition source, which could lead to harm to persons.
