Regulation 159 Hazardous material: handling and venting areas

A spaceport licensee must designate appropriate areas at the spaceport for the handling and venting of any hazardous material.

Any area designated under paragraph (1) must be appropriate to the type and quantity of hazardous material and have a surface that is compatible with that type of hazardous material.

For the purposes of paragraphs (1) and (2), whether an area is appropriate must be determined in the light of the assessment made in the spaceport licensee’s current safety case.
