(1) Employers must equip pipe lines which transport petroleum liquids from or to a wharf with valves on shore, so located as to be readily accessible and not endangered by fire on the wharf. (2) Employers must provide drip pans, buckets, or other means that must be used to prevent oil spillage upon wharves during loading, disconnecting and draining hoses. After transfer is completed the contents of drip pans and buckets must be removed and taken to a place of disposal. (3) Employers must make sure package goods, freight or ship stores are not swing-loaded or unloaded during the bulk handling of oils or other flammable liquids in such a manner that the swing-loads will endanger the hose. (4) Employers must make sure water lights for use at petroleum wharves are a type which does not create a source of ignition.
