Tank inspections

Flanders imposes rigorous regulations for tank inspections to safeguard safety, the environment, and technical compliance. Under the supervision of the Department of the Environment and local environmental authorities, these regulations mandate periodic inspections of above-ground storage tanks containing hazardous substances, which must meet stringent standards and be carried out by recognised inspection bodies.
