Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
Schedule I and II raw materials, bulk materials awaiting
						further processing, and finished products shall be stored in one of the
						following secure storage areas:
(a)
					 Where small quantities permit, in a safe of GSA class 5 rated or equivalent. If
					 the safe weighs less than 750 pounds it shall be bolted or cemented to the
					 floor or wall in such a way that it cannot readily be removed. The safe shall,
					 where required by the commissioner, be equipped with tamper-proof closed
					 circuit alarm system approved by Underwriter's Laboratories, which when
					 unauthorized entry is attempted, transmits a signal directly to a central
					 protection company, a local police agency which has a legal duty to respond or
					 a 24-hour control station operated by the registrant.
(b) A vault constructed or under construction
					 before April 1, 1973 and approved by the commissioner which is of substantial
					 construction with a steel door, combination or key lock and an alarm
					 system.
(c) A vault constructed on
					 or after April 1, 1973 which meets the following specifications or their
					 equivalent as determined by the commissioner:
(1) Walls, floors and ceilings constructed of
					 at least eight inches of reinforced concrete or other substantial masonry,
					 reinforced vertically and horizontally with one-half inch steel rods tied six
					 inches on center, or the structural equivalent to such reinforced walls, floors
					 and ceilings.
(2) The door of the
					 vault shall contain a multiple-position combination lock or the equivalent, a
					 relocking device or equivalent and steel plate with a thickness of at least
					 one-half inch. (The GSA class 5 rated steel door meets all of the
					 qualifications for the vault door.)
(3) The vault, if operations require it to
					 remain open for frequent access shall be equipped with a "day gate" or the
					 equivalent, which is self-closing and self-locking. If the operation requires
					 only that the vault be opened infrequently, such as to remove raw material in
					 the morning and return raw material at night, and is always relocked
					 immediately after use, a "day gate" is not required.
(4) The walls or perimeter of the vault shall
					 be equipped with a tamper-proof closed circuit alarm approved by Underwriter's
					 Laboratories which, when unauthorized entry is attempted, transmits a signal
					 directly to a central station protection company, a local police agency which
					 has a legal duty to respond or a 24-hour control station operated by the
					 registrant. If necessary, due to local conditions or other problems, holdup
					 buttons shall be placed at strategic points of entry to the perimeter area of
					 the vault.
(5) The vault door shall
					 be equipped with a contact switch.
(6) The vault shall have one of the
					 following:
(i) complete electrical lacing of
					 the walls, floor and ceiling;
(ii)
					 sensitive ultrasonic equipment within the vault;
(iii) sensitive sound accumulator system;
					 or
(iv) such other device
					 designated to detect illegal entry as may be approved by the
					 department.
