(a) The threshold quantities set-out below relate to each installations belonging to the same occupier where the distance between installations is not sufficient to avoid in foresuable circumstances, any aggrevation of major accident hazards. These threshold quantities apply in any case to each group of installations belonging to the same occupier where the distance between the installations is less than 500 metres.
(b) For the purpose of determining the threshold quantity of a hazardous chemical at an isolated storage, account shall also be taken of any hazardous chemical which is-
(i) in that part of any pipeline under the control of the occupier having control of the site, which is within 500 metres of that site and connected to it;
(ii) at any other site under the control of the same occupier any part of the boundary of which is within 500 metres of the said site; and
(iii) in any vehicle, vessel, aircraft or hovercraft the control of the same occupier which is used for storage purpose either at the site or within 500 metres of it.
But no account shall be taken if any hazardous chemical which is in a vehicle, vessel, aircraft or hovercraft used for transporting it.
