fire protection for critical use or disposal. At the same time
keep copies of certificates in the documentation of persons, which will be regulated
substances and fluorinated greenhouse gases, fire extinguishers or stable
fire-extinguishing equipment containing controlled substances and fluorinated
greenhouse gases released, which will perform the addition or
installation for critical uses.

4. the provisions on the control of
4.1 Custom control
The operator to continuously ensure compliance with quality provisions and
continuously performs its own control. In the framework of the own-checks are
all the control measures required by binding technology. About
the visit is conducted by written record indicating the detected
deficiencies, measures taken and their fulfilment.
4.2 checking the registration of substances
The operator shall send in quarterly intervals, regular reports on the
the quantity and condition of the stored, controlled substances and fluorinated
greenhouse gases, the Ministry of the environment.
4.3 Check for leaks-the methods used
Check tightness of containers with uskladněnými controlled substances and
fluorinated greenhouse gases shall be carried out in particular by the detector
halogenated derivatives of hydrocarbons and on their regular weighing. Spaces,
in which the handling of controlled substances and fluorinated
greenhouse gases and the premises where they are stored must be
secured by the automatic alarm, which detects the leak
controlled substances and fluorinated greenhouse gases.
This quality and control provisions apply for recycling of fire
equipment and systems, fire protection and recovery of the regulated
substances and fluorinated greenhouse gases contained in them. Governing the
the conditions for their collection for recycling, reprocessing and storage of
because of their extraordinary use to ensure basic
the needs of the State (the critical uses, process agents, special
use to ensure the health and life of humans, use in science and research
etc.) or their destruction.
