Project: Compliance with Seveso Directives
Client: Multi-client
Sectors: Oil & Gas, Metals, Pharmaceuticals & Chemicals, Waste Management
Location: Ireland, Sweden, Italy

Byrne Ó Cléirigh prepared the first Safety Case in Ireland under the Seveso I Directive for the Flogas LPG Storage Facility at Tivoli in Cork. Since then, we have prepared several other Seveso Safety Cases for the LPG, Oil Storage, Chemical Storage, Oil Refining, Non-Ferrous Metals, Pharmaceutical and Waste Management sectors under both the original Directive and the revised Seveso II Directive.

The Seveso II Directive (96/82/EC) is aimed at the prevention of major accidents involving dangerous substances and the limitation of their consequences for man and the environment. There are a number of requirements placed on operators with inventories of dangerous substances higher than the threshold quantities that are specified in the Directive. For top tier (second level) sites, these include the implementation of a Safety Management System and Emergency Response Plans and the preparation of a Safety Report for submission to the competent authority.

We provide the following high quality services to our
Clients to assist them in achieving and maintaining full compliance with the Seveso II Directive:

Development and implementation of a Major Accident Prevention Policy and Safety Management System;

Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment, including Quantitative Risk Assessment;

Consequence Modelling, including Dispersion Modelling for Major Accident Scenarios;

Emergency Response Planning;

Preparation of the Safety Report;

Consultation with the Central and Local Competent Authorities;

Advice on Land Use Planning.
