3076 Design, construction, modification, maintenance and decommissioning of filling stations (known as the Blue Book)

Overview:

This publication provides information for those involved in the design, construction, modification, maintenance and decommissioning of facilities for the storage and dispensing of vehicle fuels (at either retail or commercial premises), hereafter referred to as filling stations. In addition, it will be of interest to those involved in the enforcement of regulations applicable to such sites.

Although the information is largely based on experience from the UK, and makes frequent reference to legislation applicable in the UK, it is anticipated that the general principles will be applicable in most regions internationally. Those involved in the design, construction, modification and maintenance of filling stations outside of the UK should comply with any legislation applicable in that country.
