FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PRLog (Press Release) –
Mar 20, 2008 – With less than a fortnight to go, the next deadline for compliance with the Water Environment (Oil Storage) (Scotland) Regulations 2006 is fast approaching, warns online oil tank supplier TankDepot.co.uk.
From 1 April 2008, oil tanks installed in Scotland at agricultural, commercial, industrial, institutional and larger domestic installations, within 10 metres of surface water, or within 50 metres of a borehole will have to comply with the new Regulations. Remaining oil tanks will have to comply by 1 April 2010. The Regulations are designed to minimise the impact of oil upon the Scottish environment and set minimum design standards for the storage of oil at above ground facilities. They apply to all types of oil, including diesel, heating oil, lubricating oil, waste oil and biodiesel. Non-compliance is an offence and could result in a fine of up to £40,000. Key requirements for oil storage tanks above 200 litres include positioning the tank to avoid accidental damage; the provision of a secondary containment to catch and spills or drips; the provision of protection against possible pollution originating from ancillary equipment; and the provision of adequate pipework protection. The Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) has produced a useful guidance note to assist with implementation of the new Regulations. Copies can be downloaded from the SEPA website at http://www.sepa.org.uk. As the UK’s leading online oil tank supplier, TankDepot.co.uk offers a comprehensive range of oil storage tanks to assist Scottish companies in achieving compliance with the Regulations.
