Hazardous cargo storage distances defined: uniform separation requirements between hazardous goods, administrative buildings and general cargo to ensure safety. A jointly recommended framework sets uniform separation distances for hazardous goods storage: explosives must be separated by 200 metres from administrative buildings, other hazardous goods by 30 metres from administrative buildings, and separation between hazardous and general cargo in port areas is governed by the IMDG Code. Land storage in container depots, CCSP areas and customs notified areas is governed by specific rules (e.g., Gas Cylinder Rules, Explosive Rules, Petroleum Rules), and specific rules override port rules in case of conflict.
