36 Secondary containment systems for pooling substances (1) A place to which regulation 25 applies must have a secondary containment sys- tem if the quantity of any pooling substances of a particular hazard classifica- tion held in it is equal to or greater than the quantity specified in Schedule 4.
(2) The system must comply with regulation 37, regulation 38, regulation 39, or regulation 40, depending on— (a) the capacities of the container or containers in which the substances are held; and (b) whether they are held in a place above or below ground.

(2A) If 2 or more containers of different capacities (as described in regulations 37 to 39) are held at one place, the system must have a capacity of at least the sum of each container category.
(3) Subclause (1) does not apply to a place that is a vehicle.

37 Surface containers of up to 60 litres If the pooling substances held in a place above ground are in containers each of which has a capacity of 60 litres or less,— (a) (b) if the place’s total pooling potential is less than 5 000 litres, the secon- dary containment system must have a capacity of at least half that total pooling potential: if the place’s total pooling potential is 5 000 litres or more, the secondary containment system must have a capacity of the greater of— (i) (ii) 2 500 litres; and a quarter of that total pooling potential.
38 Surface containers of over 60 and up to 450 litres If the pooling substances held in a place above ground are in containers 1 or more of which have a capacity of more than 60 litres but none of which has a capacity of more than 450 litres,— (a) (b) if the place’s total pooling potential is less than 5 000 litres, the secon- dary containment system must have a capacity of at least that total pool- ing potential: if the place’s total pooling potential is 5 000 litres or more, the secondary containment system must have a capacity of the greater of— (i) (ii) 5 000 litres; and half that total pooling potential.
Surface containers of over 450 litres If the pooling substances held in a place above ground are in containers 1 or more of which have a capacity of 450 litres or more, the secondary contain- ment system must have a capacity of at least 110% of the capacity of the larg- est container.
Subclause (1) applies to a container that is so connected to some other contain- er or containers that leakage from it will cause the other container or containers to empty, as if its capacity is the sum of the capacities of all the connected con- tainers.

Below ground containers If the pooling substances held in a place are in 1 or more below ground con- tainers, the secondary containment system must have a capacity at least equal to the total pooling potential.
39 (1) (2) 40 (1) (2) In subclause (1), below ground container— (a) means a container that is situated below ground; and 17 Part 4 r 41 Hazardous Substances (Emergency Management) Regulations 2001 Reprinted as at 1 December 2017 (b) includes— (i) (ii) a container below ground, the level of which has been raised to provide cover for the container; and a container covered by other incombustible material instead of ground.
Regulation 40: substituted, on 26 March 2004, by regulation 22 of the Hazardous Substances (Emer- gency Management) Amendment Regulations 2004 (SR 2004/44).
41 Particular controls on secondary containment systems There must be instituted or capable of being instituted in or in respect of a sec- ondary containment system required by these regulations, controls that— (a) (b) (c) (d) if explosive substances must be contained, exclude any energy source capable of causing them to explode: if flammable or oxidising substances, or organic peroxides, must be con- tained, exclude any energy source capable of igniting them or causing them to decompose thermally: if toxic or biological corrosive substances must be contained, prevent people from being directly exposed to them: prevent the substances retained from being contaminated by incompati- ble substances and materials.
42 (1) Signage requirements Signage Every place where there is held a quantity of a hazardous substance that is equal to or greater than the quantity specified for hazardous substances of that hazard classification in Schedule 5 must have signage that— (a) advises the action to be taken in an emergency; and (b) meets the requirements of regulations 34 and 35 of the Hazardous Sub- stances (Identification) Regulations 2001.
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply to— (a) (b) (c) an aircraft that is subject to the Civil Aviation Act 1990; or an ship that is subject to the Maritime Transport Act 1994; or an vehicle that is subject to the Land Transport Act 1998.
