It covers the design and operation of vapour recovery equipment on vehicles and fill stands.The purpose of this Standard is to ensure that all tank vehicles fitted for bottom loading and vapour recovery are compatible and can be safely loaded at fill stands equipped for bottom loading, including those equipped for vapour recovery. It also covers unloading into receiving tanks.It is intended to be used in conjunction with regulations relating to environmental matters and the storage and handling of dangerous goods.
