Free Site Spill Survey
At GPT our aim is to ensure our clients are adequately prepared to deal with any spillages on site, that is why we offer a Free* site survey for your hazardous liquid storage.

Testimonials
“I would strongly recommend utilising GPT to undertake a free site spill survey. Ensuring that adequate spill containment measures are in place is an important part of Environmental Management and something which I always look for as part of an ISO 14001 audit, receiving free 3rd party validation that this has been done competently is a no brainer.”

Accident prevention and management plan
You need a plan for dealing with any incidents or events that could result in pollution.
The plan must identify potential accidents, e.g. equipment breakdowns, enforced shutdowns, fires, vandalism, flooding, or any other incident which causes an unexpected change to normal operations, e.g. bad weather.
For each potential incident, it must also state the:
- likelihood of the accident happening
- consequences of the accident happening
- measures you’ll take to avoid the accident happening
- measures you’ll take to minimise the impact if the accident does happen
