CHAPTER XII Temporary Installations
12.1 Temporary Autonomous Installations.
Temporary autonomous installations are considered to be temporary facilities composed of one or more storage tanks with their supply equipment to supply vehicles.
Temporary autonomous installations may only be installed for construction, technical tests, or other duly justified reasons, and their use is limited to cases where there is no change of consignee.
Mobile containers authorized for the transport of dangerous goods may be used as storage tanks, which must be placed on a drip tray with a capacity of at least 10% of that of the containers.
For tank storage, single-walled overhead tanks with a drip tray with a capacity of at least 10% of the tank’s capacity, or double-walled overhead tanks with a drip tray for accidental spillage, are required.
For technical tests with Class B products, surface storage outside buildings is permitted provided it is in supervised facilities located in protected enclosures.
The duration of these installations shall not exceed 12 months from the date of commissioning, and may be extended for justified reasons.
In cases where the established period is exceeded, these installations, except those consisting of mobile equipment, shall be considered fixed installations, for which communication of the installation in accordance with point 14.1 shall be required.
12.2 Vehicle Refueling Installations for Sports Events.
These installations are defined as the set composed of one or more storage tanks with their supply equipment to refuel vehicles participating in sports events.
They may be temporarily installed for duly authorized sports events. These units are not permitted to be installed indoors with Class B fuel. Loading and unloading shall be carried out using pumping equipment with suitable protection for the type of product.
Authorized tanks for the transport of dangerous goods of flammable liquids or approved mobile containers for the transport of dangerous goods may be used as storage tanks, which must be placed on a drip tray with a capacity of at least 10% of that of the containers.
These installations shall comply with the safety requirements established in this Technical Instruction for installations without a change of consignee. For Class B products, the installation of tanks on the surface shall be allowed.
