    Leak detection for pipework
    36.   Prior to the commencement of the use product pipework shall be monitored for leaks
          in accordance with the following:
          a.   Install electronic line leak detection for pressure piping that is rated to detect a
               release of 0.76 litres/hour (or a release of 18 L/day), with greater than 95%
               confidence (and less than 5% false positive); or

          installed in accordance with the following:
          a.   All ground surfaces within the fuel dispensing area are to be constructed of
               impermeable materials such as waterproofed, reinforced concrete that is free of
               gaps and/or cracks. Impermeable, hydrocarbon resistant jointing material is to
               be used between treated concrete slabs.
          b.   The fuel dispensing area is to be clearly demarcated from the uncovered
               forecourt area, access roads, general parking bays and all other areas to
               clearly delineate the higher contamination risk area from lower risk areas.
