Facilities are disposed of any equipment or product that is not necessary for the operation of the facility, including pallets, bags and other flammable materials, oils and other lubricants.
In general, the constructive provisions aim to ensure that the ruin of a structural element does not result in the chain ruin of the structure of the building, including the surrounding premises, and does not promote the collapse of the structure to the outside.
I. ― The fire-risk premises referred to in Article 8 shall comply with the provisions of this item.
The premises respect the following minimum fire reaction and resistance characteristics:
― the whole structure is a minima R 15. For single ground floor space of more than 12.50 metres high, the structure is R 60, unless the building has an automatic fire suppression device. For premises with mezzanines or two or more levels, floors are EI 120 and floor structures R 120 at least;
• exterior walls are built in materials A2 s1 d0;
– they are isolated from other premises by a distance of at least 10 meters or by walls, ceilings and floors that are all REI 120;
― any communication with another local is made either by a sas equipped with two E 60 C door blocks, or by an EI2 120 C door with a firm-door device or automatic closure.
The floor of the premises is incombustible (class A1 fl).
The openings in the separative elements (passing ducts, pipes and conveyors, doors) are equipped with devices ensuring a degree of lamp keeping equivalent to that required for these separative elements. If a degree of fire hold is required for the wall, the manoeuvrable closures are associated with a device ensuring their automatic closure in the event of a fire, whether on either side of that separative element.
The coverage meets the BROOF class and index (t3). In addition, thermal insulations (or insulation if only one) are Class A2 s1 d0. If not, the "cover support + insulation" system is class B s1 d0 and meets one of the following conditions:
- the single insulation has a PCS less than or equal to 8.4 MJ/kg;
― thermal insulation is composed of several layers, the first (in contact with the cover holder), a thickness of at least 30 millimetres, of density greater than 110 kg/m3 and mechanically fixed, has a PCS less than or equal to 8.4 MJ/kg, and the upper layers are made of insulations justifying in thickness of 60 millimetres of a class D2. These upper layers are intersected with the right of each cantonment screen by an insulating PCS less than or equal to 8.4 MJ/kg.
Materials used for natural lighting meet the d0 class.
Access to the premises allows the rapid response of the rescue. In case of a closed space, one of the facades is equipped with openings allowing the passage of equipped saviors.
II. ― The largest width of a building with a fire-risk space is limited to 75 metres, unless the building is equipped with an automatic fire-extinguishing system.
III. ― If there is a boiler room, it is located in a space exclusively reserved for this effect that meets the requirements of point I.
Outside the boiler room are installed:
a valve on the feeding of burners to stop the arrival of the fuel;
– a circuit breaker stopping the operation of the fuel pump;
– a sound and visual warning device in the event of the malfunction of the burners, or another equivalent efficiency alert system.
No flammable gas piping is present inside fire-risk premises unless it is required for the supply of equipment required for the production process. In this case, the piping is shock-protected and includes safety devices to safely cut its power supply if necessary.
Battery charging is prohibited outside a specific charging station in accordance with the provisions of I in the event of risks associated with gas emanations. In the absence of such risks, a refill area may be installed by local in accordance with the provisions of I, subject to being 3 metres away from any fuel or hazardous material and being protected from short-circuit risks.
IV. - The evidence of fire resistance properties is retained and maintained at the disposal of the inspection of classified facilities.
Fire-risk premises identified in section 8 comply with the provisions of this section.
I. – Township.
The premises are divided into defensive cantons with a maximum area of 1,600 square metres and a maximum length of 60 metres.
Each cantonment screen is DH 30, with reference to the standard NF EN 12 101-1, version June 2006, and has a minimum height of 1 meter.
An area of a minimum height of 1 meter below the lowest point level of the cantonment screen is free of all congestion.
The difference in height between the level of the highest point occupied by manufacturing and storage processes and the lowest point of the cantonment screen is greater than or equal to 1 meter.
II. ∙ Defumage.
Smoke cantons are partly equipped with natural smoke and heat evacuation devices (DENFC).
A useful area DENFC between 1 and 6 square metres is planned for 250 square metres of projected roof area.
The DENFCs are located on the roof at least 5 metres from the "firewall" walls separating the facility's premises.
Smoke disposal devices are composed of automatic and manual control outlets. The useful surface of all these outlets is greater than or equal to 2% of the area of each defrosting canton.
The action of a security command cannot be reversed by another command.
In normal operation, rearming (closing) is possible from the building floor, from the defumeration area or from the premises to defumerate.
DENFC manual controls are easily accessible from building exits or equipped premises. These manual opening controls are installed in accordance with NF S 61-932, December 2008.
The DENFCs, with reference to the standard NF EN 12 101-2, dated October 2003, have the following characteristics:
- Type B opening system (opening + closing);
– RE 300 reliability class (300 safety cycles);
- classification of the snow overload at the opening SL 250 (25 daN/m2) for altitudes below or equal to 400 metres and SL 500 (50 daN/m2) for altitudes between 400 and 800 metres. Class SL 0 is usable if the location area is not likely to be snowed or if constructive provisions prevent snow accumulation. Above 800 metres, the outlets are SL 500 and installed with constructive provisions preventing snow accumulation;
ambient temperature class T(00);
– heat exposure class B 300.
The activation of the defumage is not enslaved to the same detection as that to which the automatic extinction system is enslaved if it exists.
In the presence of an automatic extinguishing system, the automatic opening devices of the outlets are set so that the opening of the defumming organs cannot occur before the automatic extinction is triggered.
III. - Fresh air.
Fresh air intakes of an area equal to the surface of the outlets of the largest canton, local by local, are carried out either by openings on the façade or by mouths connected to ducts or by the doors of the premises to be deactivated on the outside.
I. Accessibility.
The operator shall provide fire and rescue services:
– plans of the premises with a description of hazards for each local with specific risks;
– specific instructions for access to rescue with procedures to access all locations.
The facility has at least access at all times to allow fire and rescue services to be operated.
Vehicles whose presence is related to the operation of the facility station without causing any discomfort for the accessibility of emergency equipment from the external traffic lanes to the installation, even outside the operating and opening hours of the facility.
II. – Accessibility of equipment near the facility.
At least one "machine" track is kept clear for traffic on the perimeter of the facility and is positioned so that it cannot be obstructed by the collapse of any or part of this facility or by the extinction waters.
This "machine" track respects the following characteristics:
- the useful width is at least 6 metres, the free height at a minimum of 4.5 metres and the slope below 15%;
- in the inner radius bends below 50 metres, a minimum R inner radius of 13 metres is maintained and a S = 15/R metres overwidth is added;

― each point in the perimeter of the installation is at a maximum distance of 60 metres from that track;
– no obstacle is available between the access to the facility or the "scale" lanes defined in IV and the "machine" lane.
In the event of the impossibility of setting up a "machine" track allowing traffic on the entire perimeter of the installation and if all or part of the track is stale, the last 40 meters of the part of the stale track are of a minimum useful width of 7 meters and a reversing area within a circle of 20 meters in diameter is expected at its end.
III. – Displace emergency equipment inside the site.
In order to allow the crossing of emergency equipment, any section of "machine" track of more than 100 linear meters has at least two so-called cross-roads, judiciously positioned, presenting the same grades of slope, bearing and free height as the "machine" track and having:
– a minimum useful width of 3 meters in addition to the "engine" track;
– a minimum length of 15 metres.
IV. ― Laying down ladders.
For any installation located in a building of height greater than 8 metres, at least one façade is served by at least one "scale" track allowing the circulation and stationing of the air scales. This "scale" path is directly accessible from the equipment track defined in II.
From this path, a ladder accessing at least the entire height of the building can be arranged. The track meets the following characteristics:
― the useful width is at least 4 meters, the length of the parking area at least 10 meters, the slope at a maximum of 10%;
- in the inner radius bends below 50 metres, a minimum R inner radius of 13 metres is maintained and a S = 15/R metres overwidth is added;
- no air obstacle hinders the manoeuvre of these scales vertically across the entire track;
- the distance to the façade is 1 meter minimum and 8 meters maximum for parking parallel to the building and less than 1 meter for parking perpendicular to the building;
– the track is resistant to the carrying force calculated for a 320 kN vehicle with a maximum of 130 kN per axle, with a minimum distance of 3.6 metres and a minimum punching resistance of 88 N/cm2.
For any installation located in a multi-level building with at least one floor located at a height greater than 8 metres from the level of emergency access, on at least two facades, this "scale" path allows access to openings.
These openings allow at least one access per floor for each façade with a "scale" track and have a minimum height of 1.8 metres and a minimum width of 0.9 metres. Obturation panels or frames that make these access open and remain accessible from outside and inside. They are easily identified from outside by emergency services.
V. ∙ Establishment of the hydraulic system from the equipment.
From each "machine" or "scale" track is provided access to the exits of the building or at least two opposite sides of the installation by a stabilized path of at least 1.8 meters wide.
The facility is equipped with appropriate fire-fighting capabilities, including:
a means to alert fire and rescue services;
- one or more fire appliances with a nominal diameter of 100 or 150 millimetres (DN100 or DN150) conforming to the standards in place to allow the fire and rescue service to feed on these aircraft. These devices are installed in such a way that any point of the facility's limit is less than 100 metres from a fire unit and that they are remote to each other by up to 150 metres (the distances are measured in relation to the routes practicable by emergency equipment). These appliances are either fire hydrants or fire poles powered by an independent network of the industrial water network capable of providing a minimum flow of 60 cubic metres per hour under a minimum dynamic pressure of 1 bar without exceeding 8 bar, or water reserves of minimum capacity actually usable of 120 cubic meters accessible permanently to allow their use by fire and rescue services. The characteristics of the necessary extinction and cooling water resources (including location, flow, quantity) are in accordance with technical document D 9 (guide for water dimensioning of the National Institute for Civil Safety Studies, the French Federation of Insurance Societies and the National Centre for Prevention and Protection, September 2001);
- an automatic termination device, where the device is provided under Article 5, I or II, of Article 11 of this Order;
- extinguishers distributed inside the facility when it is covered, on the outside areas and in locations with specific risks, close to the clearances, well visible and easily accessible. extinction agents are appropriate to the risks to be combated and compatible with stored materials;
- armed fire valves (RIA). They are distributed in the facility housing according to its dimensions and are located near the exits. They are arranged so that a fireplace can be attacked simultaneously by two lances in opposite directions;
- a plan(s) of the premises facilitating the operation of fire and rescue services.
Fire control means are capable of operating effectively regardless of the temperature of the facility, especially during freezing times.
In the event of installation of automatic fire-extinguishing systems, these systems are designed, installed and maintained regularly, in accordance with recognized repositories.
The locations of fire hydrants, RIAs or extinguishers are materialized on soils and buildings (e.g. by pictograms).
The staff is trained in the implementation of all fire-relief means.
Pipes carrying dangerous or unhealthy fluids and collecting polluted or susceptible effluent are waterproof and are resistant to the physical and chemical action of the products they are likely to contain. They are properly maintained and are subject to appropriate periodic reviews to ensure their good condition.
Pipes carrying dangerous fluids are clearly identified.
In the parts of the installation referred to in Article 8 and identified as capable of causing an explosion, the electrical, mechanical, hydraulic and pneumatic systems conform to the provisions of the Decree No. 96-1010. The operator maintains their inventory and has these compliance evidence.
They are reduced to what is strictly necessary to the needs of the operation.
I. ― The operator shall maintain at the disposal of the inspection of classified facilities the evidence that its electrical installations are carried out in accordance with the applicable rules, maintained in good condition and verified.
Metal equipment shall be grounded in accordance with applicable regulations and standards.
II. ― In the case of artificial lighting, only electric lighting is allowed.
Fixed lighting devices are away from the products stored to avoid their heating.
If the lighting implements technologies that can in case of dysfunction project bursts or hot elements that may be a source of fire (such as hot drops in case of bursting of sodium or mercury vapour lamps), the operator shall make every provision to ensure that all elements are confined to the appliance in case of malfunction.
Electrical sheaths and other electrical pipes are not a possible cause of ignition or leakage and are appropriately protected against shocks, the spread of flames and the action of the products present in the part of the facility in question.
Near at least one exit, is installed a well-reported central switch, allowing to cut the general power supply or each workshop.
The heating of the installation and its annexes can only be achieved by hot water, steam produced by a thermal generator or other system with an equivalent degree of safety, the source of which will be located outside the processing areas. In the case of a heated air heater produced by a thermal generator, all hot air ducts are entirely made of incombustible materials.
The operator shall implement the provisions of section 3 of the aforementioned Order of October 4, 2010.
Without prejudice to the provisions of Labour code, the premises are properly ventilated to prevent the formation of explosive or toxic atmosphere. The outlet to the atmosphere of the ventilation is placed as far as possible from the buildings inhabited or occupied by third parties and the mouths of external air aspiration, and at a sufficient height given the height of the surrounding buildings in order to promote the dispersion of the gases rejected and at least 1 meter above the ridge.
The form of the evacuation pipe, particularly in the closest part of the outlet to the atmosphere, is designed to maximize the ascent and dispersion of the pollutants in the atmosphere (e.g. the use of hats is prohibited).
The installation is equipped with an automatic fire detection system with a rapid, risk-appropriate operating alarm deferral and complies with existing standards.
The operator lists the detectors with their functionality and determines the maintenance operations to maintain their efficiency over time.
The operator is able to demonstrate the appropriateness of the selected dimensioning for detection devices and, where applicable, extinction.
In the parts of the facility identified in accordance with the provisions of Article 8 due to the risk of explosion, the operator shall put in place vents or walls to contain in the site their areas of irreversible effects on the man within the meaning of the decree of September 29, 2005 referred to above.
These vents or blowlable walls are arranged so as not to produce man-made projection in case of explosion.
I. ― Any storage of a liquid that may cause water or soil pollution is associated with a retention capacity that is at least equal to the largest of the following two values:
100% of the capacity of the largest tank;
50% of the total capacity of the associated tanks.
This provision is not applicable to wastewater treatment basins.
For storage of unit capacity receptacles less than or equal to 250 litres, the retention capacity is at least equal to:
- in the case of flammable liquids, 50% of the total capacity of drums;
– in other cases, 20% of the total capacity of the drums;
- in all cases, at least 800 litres, or equal to the total capacity when it is less than 800 litres.
II. ― Retention capacity is resistant to products that it can contain and resist the physical and chemical action of fluids. The same applies to its shut-off device, which is kept closed.
The leakage of the (or) associated tank(s) must be controlled at any time.
Products recovered in the event of an accident may only be released under conditions consistent with this order or are disposed of as waste.
Containers or containers containing incompatible products are not associated with the same retention.
Storage of flammable liquids and other toxic or dangerous products for the environment is permitted under the soil level only in masonate or assimilated pit tanks, and for flammable liquids, under the conditions set out above.
III. ― When the storage of liquids that may create pollution of the water or soil is in the open air, the retentions are emptied as soon as possible from the rainwaters pouring into it.
IV. ∙ The soil of areas and premises for the storage or handling of hazardous materials for humans or which may create pollution of water or soil is waterproof and equipped so that the washwater and the material may be collected accidentally.
V. ― All measures are taken to collect all waters and flows that are likely to be polluted during a disaster, including water used during a fire, so that they are recovered or treated to prevent pollution of soils, sewers, streams or natural environment. This containment can be achieved by internal or external devices at the facility. Internal devices are prohibited when dangerous substances are stored.
In the event of an external containment device to the installation, the channeled materials are collected, gravelly or through self-sustaining systems, and then converge to this specific capacity. In the event of the use of autonomous lifting systems, the operator is able to justify at any time a rigorous maintenance and maintenance of these devices. Regular tests are also conducted on these equipment.
In case of internal containment, the flow holes are in default closed position. In the event of external containment, the flow holes from these devices are equipped with an automatic shut-off device to ensure this containment when waters that are likely to be polluted are carried. Any means are put in place to avoid the spread of the fire by these flows.
The volume required for this containment is determined as follows. The operator calculates the sum:
– the volume of extinction water required to fight the fire on the one hand;
– the volume of product released by this fire on the other hand;
– the volume of water related to weather, at 10 litres per square metre of drainage surface to the containment facility when the containment is external.
The collected extinction waters are disposed of to the appropriate waste processing channels.
Operations are conducted under the direct or indirect supervision of a person designated by the operator. This person has a knowledge of the dangers and disadvantages caused by the operation of the facility and the products stored, and is aware of the provisions to be implemented in the event of an incident.
People outside the facility do not have free access to facilities.
In addition, in the absence of operating personnel, this access is prohibited for unauthorized persons (cash, key closure, etc.) and surveillance, by guarding or telemonitoring, is implemented. This monitoring is ongoing, in particular in order to transmit the alert to fire and rescue services, to ensure their reception on site and to allow them access to all places.
In the parts of the facility identified in section 8, repair or development work may be carried out only after the development of a document or file comprising the following:
- the definition of hazardous activity phases and corresponding specific preventive means;
- the adaptation of equipment, facilities and devices to the nature of the operations to be carried out and the definition of their maintenance conditions;
- the instructions to be given to persons in charge of the work;
– the organization set up to ensure first aid in the event of an emergency;
- when the work is carried out by an external company, the conditions of recourse by the latter to subcontract and the organization established in such a case to ensure the maintenance of security.
This document or file is prepared, based on an analysis of the risks associated with the work, and covered by the operator or by a person appointed by the operator. When the work is carried out by an outside company, the document or record is signed by the operator and the outside company or by the persons they have appointed.
Compliance with previous provisions can be ensured by the development of the prevention plan defined in articles R. 4512-6 et seq. of the Labour Code where this plan is required.
In parts of the facility with fire or explosion risks, it is prohibited to bring fire in any form, except for work that has been the subject of a specific document or record in accordance with the preceding provisions. This prohibition is displayed in apparent characters.
An audit of the successful completion of the work is carried out by the operator or its representative prior to the resumption of the activity. It is registered and is made available for inspection of classified facilities.
I. ― General rules.
The operator ensures or performs the periodic inspection and maintenance of fire safety and control equipment in place (e.g. extinguishments, detection and extinction systems, fire cut-off doors, dry column, fire network) as well as any electrical and heating facilities, in accordance with the existing repositories.

These materials are maintained in good condition and periodically verified. The staff is trained in the use of these materials.
I. ― General provisions on risk prevention in the context of operation.
The presence in workshops of hazardous or combustible materials is limited to the needs of the operation and cannot in any case exceed the authorized daily production.
Potential waste of production is evacuated regularly.
Without prejudice to the provisions of Labour code, production facilities are built in accordance with the rules of art and are designed to avoid generating hot spots that could initiate a disaster.
II. ― Processes requiring specific temperature or pressure conditions.
The operator clearly defines the temperature and pressure conditions for the safe control of facilities that use processes requiring specific temperature or pressure conditions (Rubric 2661.1).
These facilities have safety systems to prevent operators from exceeding nominal operating conditions to allow them time to return to nominal operating conditions or to initiate the procedure for the safe operation of the process concerned.
Heating systems using vats are equipped with safety devices that detect the lack of liquid and automatically stop heating in case of detection.
Possible resistances are mechanically protected so that they do not come directly into contact with products that may be ignited.
III. - Parts of the facility likely to release toxic emanations.
For parts of the facility likely to release toxic emanations, the operator defines the technical provisions (watering, containment, inerting, etc.) allowing the installation to contain areas of irreversible effect on the man within the meaning of the aforementioned 29 September 2005 order.
IV. – Storage associated with production.
Except in the case where the safety conditions of the processing process provide for it or if these storages fall under the V, the storages associated with the production are arranged in the form of islets separated from the equipment and other materials by a minimum space of 3 meters on the open side(s). A minimum distance of 1 metre is respected in relation to walls and structure elements.
V. ― Cases of storage associated with production with products that may release flammable dust.
Storage of products that may release flammable dust is not allowed inside production workshops.
They are carried out in unitary capacities whose volume is limited to operational requirements. They are equipped with vents or blowlable walls in accordance with Article 21.
Each unit capacity is remote from other facilities within a distance to avoid any risk of dominos effects, this distance cannot be less than the height of this capacity.
Without prejudice to the provisions applicable to this storage activity, these storages and associated equipment allowing the handling of these products are effectively protected against the risks associated with the effects of static electricity and vagrant currents.
Carrier tunnels and tunnels are designed in such a way as to facilitate the maintenance or cleaning of the carrier elements and to avoid the accumulations and the flow of dust.
The operation of the facility is compatible with the quality and quantity objectives of the water IV of Article L. 212-1 of the Environmental Code.
The prescribed emission limit values are those set out in this Order or those revised downward and presented by the operator in its file in order to incorporate the objectives set out in the above paragraph and to allow compliance, in the non-mix area environment, with environmental quality standards and threshold values defined by the above-mentioned Order dated 20 April 2005 completed by the above-mentioned Order dated 25 January 2010.
For each pollutant, the rejected flow is less than the maximum flow determined by the operator in its record file, without exceeding 10% of the allowable flow by the medium.
The design and operation of the facilities allows to limit water flows and pollutant flows.
The sampling is not in an area where permanent quantitative distribution measures have been instituted under theArticle L. 211-2 of the Environmental Code.
In general, the daily sampling carried out in the public and/or natural environment is less than the maximum daily sampling determined by the operator in its registration application file, without exceeding:
100 m3/day; and
1 m3/year average production ton.
For processes identified as requiring higher water consumption, such as vulcanization, daily sampling in the public network and/or natural environment is less than the maximum daily sampling determined by the operator in its registration application file, without exceeding 50 cubic metres per hour.
If the water removal is carried out by drilling, wells or underground work in an aquifer system, excluding watercourses, by pumping, drainage, derivation or any other process, the total volume taken is less than 200,000 cubic metres per year.
If the water removal is carried out, including by derivation, in a watercourse, in its accompanying table or in a water plan or channel fed by this stream or water table, it is less than 5% of the flow of the watercourse or, if not, of the total power flow of the canal or water plan.
Open circuit refrigeration is prohibited.
If the volume taken is greater than 10,000 m3/year, the provisions for the establishment, operation, monitoring, monitoring and stopping of the sampling works are in accordance with the provisions set out in the September 11, 2003 decision on the levies submitted under section 1.1.2.0 pursuant to the provisions of the Articles L. 214-1 to L. 214-3 of the Environmental Code.
Water sampling facilities are equipped with a totalizing measuring device. This device is recorded daily if the debit is likely to exceed 100 cubic metres per day, weekly if the debit is lower. These results are stored on a registry that is eventually computerized and stored in the installation folder.
In the event of connection, on a public network or on a sheet drilling, the work is equipped with a disconnection device.
The sampling works in watercourses do not interfere with the free flow of water. Only can be built in the bed of the watercourse of sampling works that do not require the authorization mentioned in theArticle L. 214-3 of the Environmental Code. The operation of these works is in accordance with the provisions of Article L. 214-18.
All drilling is in accordance with the provisions of Article L. 411-1 of the mining code and the order of September 11, 2003.
During the construction of watersheds, all measures are taken to prevent the transmission of separate water tablecloths and to prevent any introduction of surface pollution, including appropriate adaptation to storage or use of hazardous substances.
In the event of termination of use of drilling, appropriate measures are being implemented to prevent groundwater pollution.
The realization of any new drilling or decommissioning of a drilling is brought to the attention of the prefect with all the elements of assessing the hydrogeological impact.
Direct connections between effluent collection networks to be treated or destroyed and the receiving environment are prohibited, with the exception of accidental cases where the safety of individuals or facilities would be compromised.
Aqueous effluent discharged by facilities is not likely to degrade the facility's networks or to release toxic or flammable products in these networks, possibly by mixing with other effluents. These effluents do not contain substances that hinder the proper operation of the site's processing facilities.
The collectors carrying water polluted by flammable liquids, or likely to be, are equipped with effective protection against the danger of flame propagation.
The effluent collection network plan shows the sectors collected, the points of connection, looks, swallows, lifting stations, measuring stations, manual and automatic valves. It is retained in the installation file.
Release points in the natural environment are as small as possible.
Releases allow good effluent diffusion in the receiving environment and minimize the mixing area.
Residual water discharge devices are designed to minimize the disruption to the receiving environment, at the edge of the discharge point, depending on the use of the water in the immediate vicinity and at the end of the receiving environment, and not to hinder navigation.
Each effluent discharge pipe is provided with a sample sampling point and measuring points (debit, temperature, polluting concentration, etc.).
These points are located in a section whose characteristics (e.g., upstream conduct, wall quality, flow regime, etc.) allow for representative measurements to be made so that the speed is not substantially slowed down by thresholds or obstacles at the swallow and the effluent is sufficiently homogeneous.
These points are designed so as to be easily accessible and to allow safe interventions. All arrangements are also made to facilitate the intervention of organizations outside the application for inspection of classified facilities.
I. ― Unclean rainwaters that do not alter their original quality are evacuated by a specific network.
II. ― Rainwater that is likely to be polluted, including by runoff on traffic lanes, parking, loading and unloading areas, storage areas and other waterproof surfaces, are collected by a specific network and processed by one or more appropriate treatment devices to treat pollutants in the presence.
These equipment are drained (hydrocarbons and sludges) and cured when the volume of sludge reaches half of the useful volume of the sludge and in all cases at least once a year, unless the operator's justification for the deferral of this operation on the basis of regular visual controls recorded and held at the disposal of the inspection. In any case, the postponement of this operation cannot exceed two years. Follow-up sheets for the cleaning of deciant-separators of hydrocarbons, the standard compliance certificate, and waste-processing slips destroyed or retired are required for inspection of classified facilities.
III. - These treatment devices conform to the standard NF P 16-442 as of November 2007, or any other equivalent European or international standard.
IV. ― When the run-off on all surfaces of the facility (sizes, parking areas, etc.), in the event of rain corresponding to the maximum 10-year precipitation, is likely to generate a flow at the outflow of the treatment works of these waters greater than 10% of the QMNA5 in the receiving environment, the operator shall set up a collection work in order to respect, in the case of 105-year precipitations, a lower QMNA flow rate
V. ― In case of rejection in a collective collection work, the maximum flow rate is fixed by agreement between the operator and the manager of the collection work.
The collected water can only be released to the receiving environment after quality control and, if necessary, appropriate treatment. Their release is spread over time as a need to meet the limit values set out in Article 41, subject to the compatibility of the discharges with the pollution levels defined below with the quality and quantity objectives of the water covered in Article 41 IV of Article L. 212-1 of the Environmental Code.
Direct or indirect discharges of effluent to groundwater are prohibited.
All aqueous effluents are channeled.
Dilution of effluent is prohibited.
The amount of water released is measured weekly or, if not, measured weekly from the measurement of water collected in the public distribution network or in the natural environment.
The requirements of this article apply only to direct releases to the natural environment.
The operator justifies that the daily maximum flow rate does not exceed one tenth of the interannual average flow rate of the watercourse.
The temperature of the discharged effluent is less than 30 °C and its pH is between 5.5 and 8.5 or 5.5 and 9.5 if there is alkaline neutralization.
The color modification of the receiver medium, measured in a representative point of the mixing area, does not exceed 100 mg Pt/l.
For receiving water, releases do not induce outside the mixing area:
- a temperature rise of more than 1.5 °C for salmon water, 3 °C for cyprinticultural waters and 2 °C for conchylic waters;
- a temperature greater than 21.5 °C for salmon water, 28 °C for cyprincultural waters and 25 °C for water intended for food water production;
- pH outside of the following ranges: 6/9 for salmon, cyprinticultural and bathing waters; 6.5/8,5 for water intended for food production and 7/9 for conchylic waters;
- an increase of more than 30% of the suspended material and a variation of more than 10% of the salinity for conchylic waters.
The provisions of the previous paragraph do not apply to the marine waters of overseas departments.
I. ― Residual waters released in the natural environment shall respect the following concentration limits, according to the authorized maximum daily flow, without prejudice to the provisions of section 27.
For each of the pollutants released by the facility, the operator submits the maximum daily flow.

JOn° 304 of 31/12/2013 text number 59
II. ― The operator maintains the complete list of substances that may be released by the facility, specifying those that are subject to surveillance under section 60.
The operator shall be at the disposal of the inspection of classified facilities the technical elements to verify the failure of the installation of the substances referred to in this section.
I. ― Connecting to a collective, urban or industrial wastewater treatment plant is permitted only if the collective sanitation infrastructure (network and sewage station) is capable of transporting and processing industrial effluent as well as the sludge resulting from this treatment under good conditions. Discharge authorization and, where applicable, a spill agreement shall be established with the competent authorities in charge of the remediation network and the collection network.
The limit values of concentration imposed on the effluent at the outlet of the facility before connecting to an urban purification plant do not exceed:
MEST: 600 mg/l;
DBO5: 800 mg/l;
DCO: 2,000 mg/l;
global nitrogen (expressed in N): 150 mg/l;
total phosphorus (expressed in P): 50 mg/l.
However, the release limit values may be higher than the above values if the authorization and potential spill agreement authorizes it and to the extent that it has been shown that the proper operation of the networks, purification equipment and the sludge treatment system is not affected by these exceedances.
For pollutants other than those regulated above, limit values are the same as for a release into the natural environment.
For temperature, flow and pH, the release authorization in the public network sets the value to be respected.
II. ― For all other substances that may be rejected by the facility, the operator shall present in its file the concentration limits to which they will be rejected.
The sampling and analysis operations are carried out in accordance with the technical requirements defined by the above-mentioned decision of 27 October 2011.
The limit values of sections 38 and 39 apply to average samples, measurements or analyses carried out over 24 hours.
In the case of self-monitoring, 10 per cent of the series of measurements results may exceed the prescribed limit values, but not more than double these values. In the case of a daily self-monitoring (or more frequent) of aqueous effluent, these 10% are counted on a monthly basis. In the case of instantaneous sampling, no measurement results exceed double the prescribed limit value.
For nitrogen and phosphorus, the mean concentration on a sampling of 24 hours does not exceed double the limit values.
For hazardous substances present in the release of the facility and identified in section 38 by a star, the operator presents the measures taken, along with a timeframe to remove the release of this substance into the aquatic environment in 2021 (or 2028 for anthracene and endosulfan).
Channeled rainwater discharges meet the following concentration limit values, subject to the compatibility of discharges with the pollution levels defined below with the quality and quantity objectives of the water covered by the IV of Article L. 212-1 of the Environmental Code :
| Total suspension materials | 35 mg/l |
| DCO (sur effluent non déanté) | 125 mg/l |
| Total hydrocarbons | 10 mg/l |
Treatment facilities for direct discharge in the natural environment and pre-treatment facilities in the event of connection to a collective, urban or industrial wastewater treatment plant, where they are required for compliance with the limit values imposed on the discharge, are designed and operated in such a way as to cope with the variations in the flow, temperature or composition of the effluents to be treated, especially when starting or stopping the facilities.
Treatment and/or pre-treatment facilities are properly maintained. The main parameters to ensure their proper walking are measured periodically. The results of these measures are referenced to a register that may be computerized and stored in the installation file for five years.
If a non-availability or dysfunction of treatment and/or pre-treatment facilities is likely to lead to a exceedance of the limit values imposed by this Order, the operator shall make the necessary arrangements to reduce the pollution emitted by limiting or stopping if necessary the activity concerned.
Waste, waste, effluent and by-products is prohibited.
Dusts, gaseous pollutants or odors are collected at the source and channeled to the extent possible. Without prejudice to the rules relating to occupational health and safety, releases are in accordance with the provisions of this Order.
The collected effluents are released to the atmosphere, after possible treatment, under conditions that allow the discharge to be properly distributed. Storages of pulverulent, volatile or fragrant products, which may lead to diffuse emissions of pollutants in the atmosphere, are confined (recipients, silos, closed buildings, etc.). Handling facilities, transvasion, transport of these products are, unless justified technical impossibility, equipped with capture and suction devices to reduce emissions in the atmosphere. If necessary, the suction devices shall be connected to a effluent treatment facility to comply with the provisions of this Order. The associated equipment and fittings also meet the prevention of fire and explosion hazards (events for drying towers, dust removals, etc.).
The storage of other bulk products is carried out to the extent possible in closed spaces. In the absence of a special arrangement, both in terms of design and construction (wind-based installation, etc.) and in operation (humidification of storage, spraying of additives to limit flight in dry weather, etc.) are implemented.
Release points in the natural environment are as small as possible. If a number of discharge points are required, the operator warrants that.
The effluents are collected and released to the atmosphere, after possible treatment, through chimneys to allow proper release. The shape of ducts, particularly in their closest part of the outlet to the atmosphere, is designed to maximize the rise of gas in the atmosphere. The location of these ducts is such that there can be no siphoning of discharged effluents in the pipelines or air catches nearby. The contours of the ducts are not angular and the variation of the section of the ducts in the vicinity of the outlet is continuous and slow.
The measuring points and sampling points shall be arranged in accordance with the conditions set out in the reference methods specified in the order of 7 July 2009 referred to and equipped with the equipment necessary to carry out the measures provided for in this Order under representative conditions.
The height of the chimney (difference between the elevation of the open air outlet and the mean altitude of the ground at the place in question), expressed in metres, is determined, on the one hand, according to the level of the emissions of pollutants to the atmosphere, on the other hand, depending on the existence of obstacles that may hinder the dispersion of the gases.
This height, which cannot be less than 10 metres, is the subject of justification in the file, in accordance with the provisions of Appendix II.
The operator demonstrates that the emission limit values set below are consistent with the state of the environment.
For flow determination, channelled emissions and diffuse emissions are taken into account.
The methods of measurement, sampling and reference analysis in force are determined by the above-mentioned decision of 7 July 2009.
The flow of gaseous effluent is expressed in cubic metres per hour in relation to normal temperature conditions (273 Kelvins) and pressure (101.3 kilopascals) after deduction of water vapour (dry gas). When the facility uses a combustion process, the gaseous effluent flow and pollutant concentrations are reported to the same reference oxygen content of 3% for gaseous and liquid fuels, 6% for liquid fuels. Pollutant concentrations are expressed in gram(s) or milligram(s) per cubic metre reported to the same standard conditions.
For drying facilities, measurements are made on wet gases.
I. ― Gas effluents respect the limit values in the table below according to the hourly flow. In the event that the same pollutant is emitted by various channelled releases, the limit values applicable to each channelled release are determined, if any, based on the total flow of all channelled and diffuse releases.
You can consult the table in the
JOn° 304 of 31/12/2013 text number 59
II. ― In the event of using an oxidation technique to eliminate VOCs, the reference oxygen content for the verification of compliance with emission limit values is that measured in effluents from oxidation equipment. A secondary energy recovery device is installed, unless the operator demonstrates that this device is not required.
III. ― Substances or mixtures to which are assigned, or on which are affixed, hazard statements H340, H350, H350i, H360D or H360F or risk phrases R 45, R 46, R 49, R 60 or R 61, due to their content of volatile organic compounds classified as carcinogens, mutagenics or toxic for reproduction under the regulations2/2008
IV. ― Limit values are required for medium measurements, sampling and analysis carried out over a half-hour period.
Generally:
- in the case of instantaneous sampling, no measurement result exceeds double the prescribed limit value;
- in the case of a permanent self-monitoring (at least one representative measure per day), 10% of the series of measurements results may exceed the prescribed limit values, but not more than double these values. These 10 per cent are counted on a 24-hour basis.
For the specific case of emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs):
- in the case of a permanent self-monitoring (at least one representative measure per day), none of the averages for twenty-four hours of normal operation exceeds the emission limit values and none of the mean hours is more than 1.5 times the emission limit value;
―in the case of periodic measurements, the average of all measurements carried out during a monitoring operation does not exceed the emission limit values and none of the time averages is more than 1.5 times the emission limit value.
V. ∙ Implementation of a VOC emission control scheme:
The limit values for VOC emissions defined in the first paragraph of paragraph 7 (a) of Table I are not applicable to releases of VOC emission control facilities as defined below.
Such a scheme ensures that the total flow of VOC emissions from the facility does not exceed the flow that would be achieved by strict application of the channeled and diffuse emission limit values defined in this Order.
The scheme is developed from a reference emission level of the facility corresponding to the level achieved if no VOC emission reduction measures were implemented on the facility.
The VOC emission control scheme is established either on the basis of a professional guide recognized by the Minister responsible for the environment or on the basis of a methodology developed by the operator for which the prefect may require a critical analysis by an expert external body chosen by the operator in accordance with the administration.
Facilities, or parts of facilities, in which one or more of the substances referred to in point d of 7° of Table I are implemented, are subject to an emission control scheme.
However, the substances referred to in point d of 7° of Table I, which remain used in the facility despite the implementation of the emission control scheme, remain subject to compliance with the limit values set out in d of 7° of Table I.
VI. ― For all other substances that may be released by the facility, the gaseous effluents meet the concentration limit values set out in the table according to the hourly flux set out in Annex III.
The operator maintains the complete list of substances that may be released by the facility, specifying those that are subject to the monitoring provided for in section 59.
The operator shall be at the disposal of the inspection of the classified facilities the technical elements to verify the absence of the facility for the other substances listed in Annex III.
Any operator of a facility that consumes more than one ton of solvents per year puts in place a solvent management plan, including the intakes and outflows of solvents of the facility. This plan is made available for inspection of classified facilities.
If the facility's annual solvent consumption is greater than 30 tonnes per year, the operator shall annually transmit to the inspection of the classified facilities the solvent management plan and the information on its actions to reduce consumption.
All necessary steps are taken to ensure that the establishment is not responsible for the issuance of odorous gases that may impair the neighbourhood and harm public health and safety.
When there are potential sources of large-surface odors (storage, treatment, etc.) that are difficult to confine, they are implanted in such a way as to limit the inconvenience to the neighbourhood (removal, etc.).
Direct or indirect releases to soils are prohibited.
I. ― Noise limit values.
The sound emissions of the facility are not at the origin, in the regulated-emerged areas, of an emergence greater than the eligible values defined in the following table:
| Higher than 35 and less than or equal to 45 dB(A) | 6 dB(A) | 4 dB(A) |
| Higher than 45 dB(A) | 5 dB(A) | 3 dB(A) |
The operator shall make all necessary arrangements in the design and operation of its facilities to ensure the proper management of waste and under-products of its undertaking, including:
∙ limit the quantity and toxicity of waste to the source by adopting clean technologies;
― sorting, recycling, recycling waste;
ensuring the treatment or pre-treatment of its waste, including by means of physico-chemical, biological or thermal treatment;
― ensuring, for the ultimate waste whose volume is strictly limited, storage under conditions that prevent pollution and accident risks.
I. ― The operator shall segregate waste (dangerous or non-dangerous) within the facility to facilitate their processing or disposal in specific industries.
Wastes and residues are stored, prior to revalorization or disposal, under conditions that do not pose a risk of pollution (prevention of meteoric water leaching, surface and groundwater pollution, flight and odours) for neighbouring populations and the environment.
Temporary storage, before recycling or disposal of hazardous wastes, is carried out on watertight and protected storage cuvettes of meteoric water.
II. – All arrangements are made to ensure that waste storage devices are not a source of inconvenience or nuisance for the neighbourhood and do not result in water or soil pollution by runoff or infiltration. Discharge in the natural environment of overflows of storage works is prohibited. Free air storage works are prohibited from accessing unauthorized third parties.
III. ― The quantity stored on the site does not exceed the monthly capacity produced for waste and the capacity produced in six months for by-products or, in case of external processing, a normal batch of shipment to the management facility without being able to exceed one year. The operator assesses this amount and makes the results of this assessment available to the inspection of classified facilities, along with its supporting documentation.
Wastes that cannot be valued are disposed of in regulated facilities environmental code. The operator is able to justify the removal on request of the inspection of classified facilities.
The operator shall establish the registry provided for in the above-mentioned 29 February 2012 Order and the hazardous waste tracking slips generated by its activities as provided for in the 29 February 2012 Order. Any open air burn is prohibited.
The operator shall establish a program to monitor its emissions under the conditions set out in sections 59 to 65. The measures are carried out under the responsibility of the operator and at its own expense.
The methods of measurement, sampling and analysis, of reference in force, are determined by the above-mentioned decision of 7 July 2009.
At least once a year, the measures are carried out by an organization approved by the Minister in charge of classified facilities selected in accordance with the inspection of classified facilities.
Only pollutants that may be issued by the facility as specified in Article 50 VI are subject to the monitoring provided for in this Article.
When the air pollutant releases exceed the thresholds below, the operator shall, under the conditions set out in section 49, perform a continuous measurement of the corresponding discharge rate and the following measures. In the event that diffuse emissions represent a significant share of authorized flows, these emissions are periodically evaluated.
You can consult the table in the
JOn° 304 of 31/12/2013 text number 59
Other pollutants released by the facility not specified in the previous table are also monitored as long as the corresponding daily flow exceeds the values listed in Annex III. Unless specifically provided by the operator, this monitoring is ongoing.
For VOCs:
- in the case of the establishment of an emission control scheme (MES) in accordance with the provisions of Article 50 V, continuous monitoring may be replaced by a material balance sheet in accordance with Article 51 (solvent management plan);
– in the general case, continuous monitoring can be replaced by a representative parameter, which is linked to emissions.
The establishment of a correlation pursuant to the preceding paragraph and the c of item 7° of the previous table is confirmed periodically by a measurement of emissions. This periodicity is daily during the correlation phase. Once this correlation is properly defined and justified, this correlation is confirmed periodically by a measurement of emissions that are justified by the operator.
In the event of exceedance of authorized threshold values, the operator shall make the necessary arrangements to re-conform these releases, by justifying this compliance with a satisfactory verification check. It specifies on a register the actions carried out and informs the inspection of classified facilities. The results of the measurements are made available for inspection of classified facilities.
For substances that may be released by the facility as specified in Article 38, Part II, that effluents are discharged in the natural environment or in a connection network at a collective purification plant, a measurement shall be carried out according to the frequency indicated in the table below for the pollutants listed below, from a representative sample taken over a period of 24 hours.

150 kg/h of organic compounds or 20 kg/h in the case of compounds referred to in Annex I;
50 kg/h of dust;
50 kg/h of inorganic chlorine gaseous compounds;
50 kg/h of hydrochloric acid;
25 kg/h of fluorine and fluorinated compounds;

monitor air quality or fallout (for dust).
The measurements are carried out according to the reference methods specified in the above-mentioned decision of 7 July 2009.
The number of measurement points and the conditions under which measuring devices are installed and operated are described in the application file.
diffuse emissions are taken into account.
Operators who participate in an air quality measurement network that includes measures of the pollutant concerned may be exempted from this requirement, if the existing network allows to properly monitor the effects of their releases.
In all cases, wind speed and direction are measured and recorded continuously on the classified facility or in its surrounding environment.
When the discharge occurs in a watercourse and exceeds one of the following values:
5 t/j of DCO;
20 kg/d total hydrocarbons;
10 kg/j of chrome, copper, tin, manganese, nickel, lead and their compounds (expressed in Cr + Cu + Sn + Mn + Ni + Pb);
0.1 kg/d of arsenic, cadmium, mercury and their compounds (expressed as + Cd + Hg),
the operator performs or makes samples downstream of its release, outside the mixing area, at a minimum monthly frequency.
When the discharge occurs at sea or in a lake and exceeds one of the above-mentioned flows, the operator shall establish an environmental monitoring plan that is adapted to local conditions.
The results of these measurements are sent to the inspection of facilities classified within a maximum period of one month after the collection is completed.
Substances referred to in sections 61 and 62 of this Order are subject to an annual return under the conditions set out in the above-mentioned Ministerial Order of January 31, 2008.
The Director General of Risk Prevention is responsible for the execution of this Order, which will be published in the Official Journal of the French Republic.

TECHNICAL REGULATIONS
The facility is built, equipped and operated so that its operation is not at the origin of vibrations in the surrounding constructions that could compromise the health or safety of the neighbourhood or create a nuisance for the neighbourhood.
The particulate velocity of the emitted vibrations measured by the method defined in this annex shall not exceed the values defined below.
1. Limit values of particulate speed
1.1. Continuous or assimilated sources
Are considered continuous or assimilated sources:
- all machines emitting vibrations continuously;
― sources emitting pulses at fairly short intervals without limiting the number of emissions.
The limit values applicable to each of the three components of the vibration movement are as follows:
| Resistant constructions | 5 mm/s | 6 mm/s | 8 mm/s |
| Sensitive construction | 3 mm/s | 5 mm/s | 6 mm/s |
| Very sensitive constructions | 2 mm/s | 3 mm/s | 4 mm/s |
1.2. Repeated pulse sources
All sources emitting, in limited numbers, pulses at fairly short intervals but greater than 1 s and less than 500 ms are considered to be repeated pulses.
The limit values applicable to each of the three components of the vibration movement are as follows:
| Resistant constructions | 8 mm/s | 12 mm/s | 15 mm/s |
| Sensitive construction | 6 mm/s | 9 mm/s | 12 mm/s |
| Very sensitive constructions | 4 mm/s | 6 mm/s | 9 mm/s |
2. Construction classification
For the application of particulate speed limits, constructions are classified into three categories according to their level of resistance:
• Resistant constructions: constructions of classes 1 to 4 defined by Circular No. 23 of 23 July 1986 on mechanical vibrations emitted in the environment by installations classified for environmental protection;
• sensitive constructions: constructions of classes 5 to 8 defined by circular 23 of 23 July 1986;
― very sensitive constructions: constructions of classes 9 to 13 defined by circular 23 of 23 July 1986.
The following constructions are excluded from this classification:
- nuclear reactors and their associated installations;
- general safety facilities except for the constructions that contain them;
– dams, bridges;
• water castles;
- large-range transport facilities of gases or liquids other than water and water pipes under pressure greater than one metre;
– storage tanks for gas, liquid hydrocarbons or cereals;
- railway or road tunnels and other underground works of similar importance;
― harbour works such as dikes, docks and works located at sea, including drilling platforms,
for which the study of vibration effects is entrusted to a qualified body. The choice of this body is approved by inspection of classified facilities.
3. Method of measurement
3.1. Basic elements
The movement in one point of a construction is recorded in three rectangular directions, one vertical, the other two directions being defined in relation to the horizontal axes of the work studied without taking into account the azimut.
The sensors are placed on the main element of the construction (window support of a carrying wall, support point on the metal frame or concrete in the case of a modern construction).
3.2. Measuring apparatus
The measuring string to be used allows the recording, depending on time, of the particulate speed in the frequency band from 4 Hz to 150 Hz for the amplitudes of this speed between 0.1 mm/s and 50 mm/s. The chain dynamic is at least 54 dB.
3.3. Operational conditions
The sensors are completely supportive of their support. They are not installed on the coatings (zinc, plaster, tiles, etc.) that can act as vibration filters or cause parasites vibration if these coatings are not well in solidarity with the main element of the construction. Unless specifically justified, a measure of the existing agitations, apart from the operation of the source is performed.

CALCUL RULES OF CHEMINATION
It is calculated first the amount s = (k. q/cm) for each of the main pollutants where:
k is a coefficient of 340 for gaseous pollutants and 680 for dust;
q is the maximum instantaneous flow rate of the pollutant emitted to the chimney expressed in kilograms per hour;
cm is the maximum concentration of the pollutant considered eligible for soil level as a result of the facility expressed in milligrams per normal cubic metre;
cm is equal to cr-co where cr is a reference value given by the table below and where co is the annual average of the measured concentration at the place considered.
| Sulphur oxides | 0.15 |
| Nitrogen oxides | 0.14 |
| Pulses | 0.15 |
| Hydrochloric acid | 0.05 |
| Organic compounds | |
| ― referred to in paragraph 7 of Article 50 | 1 |
| - referred to in c of 7° of Article 50 | 0.05 |
| Plomb | 0.000 5 |
| Cadmium | 0.000 5 |
| Low-polluted area | 0.01 | 0.01 | 0.01 |
| Medium-planned or moderately industrialized area | 0.04 | 0.05 | 0.04 |
| Very urbanized or highly industrialized | 0.07 | 0.10 | 0.08 |

ELV FOR ATMOSPHÈRE
I. ― Gas effluents meet the limit values in the table below. In the event that the same pollutant is emitted by various channelled releases, the limit values applicable to each channelled release are determined, where applicable, based on the total flow of all channelled and diffuse releases. For flow determination, channelled emissions and diffuse emissions are taken into account.

II. ― Limit values are required for medium measurements, sampling and analysis carried out over a half-hour period.
Generally:
- in the case of instantaneous sampling, no measurement result exceeds double the prescribed limit value;
- in the case of a permanent self-monitoring (at least one representative measure per day), 10% of the series of measurements results may exceed the prescribed limit values, but not more than double these values. These 10 per cent are counted on a 24-hour basis.
For the specific case of emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs):
- in the case of a permanent self-monitoring (at least one representative measure per day), none of the averages for twenty-four hours of normal operation exceeds the emission limit values and none of the mean hours is more than 1.5 times the emission limit value;
―in the case of periodic measurements, the average of all measurements carried out during a monitoring operation does not exceed the emission limit values and none of the time averages is more than 1.5 times the emission limit value.
III. ― Where releases of pollutants to the atmosphere exceed the below thresholds for other pollutants as listed in section 50, the operator shall, under the conditions provided for in section 49, perform an ongoing measurement of the flow of the corresponding release and the following measures. In the event that diffuse emissions represent a significant share of authorized flows, these emissions are periodically evaluated.
You can consult the table in the
JOn° 304 of 31/12/2013 text number 59
When dust contains at least one of the metals or metal compounds listed in this Annex (8° [a, b or c]) and if the hourly flow of dust-lined emissions exceeds 50 g/h, the measurement of dust emissions is carried out on an ongoing basis.
