Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) Marine motor fuel dispensing facilities
				shall be of the attended type only. Self-service is prohibited.
b) No vessel or marine craft shall be made
				fast to any other vessel or marine craft occupying a berth at a fuel dispensing
				location during fueling operations.
c) Smoking materials, including matches and
				lighters, shall not be used within 20 feet of areas used for fueling, servicing
				fuel systems for internal combustion engines, or receiving or dispensing Class
				I liquids.
d) The fuel delivery
				nozzle shall be put into contact with the vessel fill pipe before the flow of
				fuel commences and this bonding contact shall be continuously maintained until
				fuel flow has stopped to avoid possibility of electrostatic
				discharge.
e) At all marinas,
				clearly identified emergency stops that are readily accessible in case of fire
				or physical damage at any dispensing unit shall be provided on each marine
				wharf and located at least 20 feet but not more than 100 feet from each
				dispenser, or at a location as approved by OSFM. The emergency stops shall be
				interconnected to shut off power to all dispenser and submersible pump motors
				from any individual location . Each emergency stop shall be identified by an
				approved sign on all-weather materials stating "EMERGENCY STOP" in 2 inch red
				capital letters. Resetting from an emergency stop activation shall require
				manual intervention by the owner or attendant and shall be accomplished only
				after the condition that caused the activation has been corrected. A master
				electrical shutoff means an emergency stop.
f) All emergency stops shall be tested and
				all shear valves visually inspected at least annually to ensure that they are
				functioning properly and that the dispenser is mounted properly. Documentation
				of annual emergency stop testing and shear valve inspection shall be kept at
				the motor fuel dispensing facility and available for examination by a
				representative of OSFM. If documentation of annual testing of emergency stops
				is not available, the facility shall be subject to demonstration of this
				equipment during inspection by OSFM.
g) Minimum Signage. A conspicuous sign shall
				be made of all-weather material with prominent letters not less than 7/8 inch
				high. The sign shall be mounted no higher than 10 feet above the dispenser
				base, or at a height approved by OSFM, and shall be visible in all directions,
				stating "No dispensing by anyone other than the attendant".
h) Fire Extinguishers. Fire extinguishers
				shall be provided in accordance with 41 Ill. Adm. Code
				174.350.
i) Spill containment shall be provided on
				docks adjacent to dispensers to contain spills that may occur during the
				filling of approved portable containers. Portable containers of 6 gallons or
				less shall be filled on the dock where spill containment is provided.
