Dangerous goods sites storing or handling more than the manifest quantities of dangerous goods must maintain a manifest and a dangerous goods site plan.
This guidance note outlines the requirements for the manifest and site plan. These documents must be current to allow an appropriate response by the Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES) in the event of an emergency.
Sites must review and, if necessary, prepare a revised version of the manifest and site plan:
- within seven days after any significant change in the information; and
- in any event, at intervals of not more than three years from the day on which the manifest and plan were developed or last revised.
Licence holders must ensure the manifest and site plan are kept on site so they are readily accessible to emergency responders.
