8. Storage, maintenance and preparation of equipment and hazardous substances - secured, clearly labelled, well lit and ventilated, sealed, impervious and covered areas are hugely important considerations. Double walls, bunding, above ground fuel tanks, secondary containments, absorbent materials to control spills are some current examples of measures to prevent
pollution at the maintenance facility.
9. Keep accurate records - knowing exactly what you use, how much, and where, will help in the assessment and targeting of specific areas for improvement. This kind of data can also be shared with other industry professionals and colleagues to help pass on best practice examples.
The simplest and most widely accepted methods always go a long way.
