 (b) testing the response arrangements when they are significantly amended;
 (c) testing the response arrangements not later than 12 months after the most recent test;
 (d) if a new location for the activity is added to the environment plan after the response arrangements have been tested, and before the next test is scheduled to be conducted—testing the response arrangements in relation to the new location as soon as practicable after it is added to the plan;
 (e) if a facility becomes operational after the response arrangements have been tested and before the next test is scheduled to be conducted—testing the response arrangements in relation to the facility when it becomes operational.
