Decree 125/2016, which regulates the inspection and review of gas receiving facilities
Decree 125/2016, which regulates the inspection and review of gas receiving facilities
Decree 28/2002, of January 29, regulated the inspections and revisions of the gas reception facilities in service for domestic, collective or commercial uses, specifying the necessary actions that the owners and the distribution companies had to carry out in order to check the status of the facilities and improve their safety, and defining the scope of the checks, as well as the effects of not carrying out said inspections. Specific aspects of said decree were developed by order of April 16, 2002.
Over the years, this decree has undergone various modifications. It was modified by means of Decree 136/2007, of September 11, 2007, to incorporate the same inspection system to reception facilities supplied from liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) tanks that serve more than one user, and also by Decree 70/2009, of March 24, 2009, which extended the same inspection system to the rest of the individual gas receiving facilities supplied with containers or through an LPG tank, a modification that was partially annulled by the Supreme Court by ruling dated 11-20-2013.
Similarly, the order of April 16, 2002 was modified by another order of October 8, 2007 regarding the description and qualification of defects that can be found in gas inspections or reviews.
On the other hand, Law 8/2015, of May 21, which modifies Law 34/1998, of October 7, of the hydrocarbon sector, has introduced a new regime in the inspections of gas receiving facilities by channeling, both natural gas and liquefied petroleum gases, allowing them to be carried out by authorized gas installation companies appointed by the holders, and establishing their obligation by the gas distribution company only in the absence of said inspection by installation company.
The foregoing justifies the proceeding to the preparation of this regulatory text that regulates, for the territorial scope of this Autonomous Community, the legal regime applicable to periodic control, determines the criteria to be taken into account in carrying out inspections of this type of installations and precisely contemplates the necessary actions to be carried out by both the authorized gas installation companies and, where appropriate, by the gas distribution companies, for the adequate fulfillment of the safety objective, based on an exhaustive control of this type of facilities that, traditionally, has been proposed by the Administration of the Autonomous Community of Euskadi.
This Decree therefore seeks to facilitate compliance with the obligations that current technical regulations attribute to owners or users of this type of facility, defining and regulating the scope, technical procedure and content of the control that must be carried out on these facilities. Likewise, it defines the obligations of the agents involved in the inspection and review processes and determines the actions to be carried out in the event of non-compliance with their obligations by the owners or users.
By virtue of this, in accordance with the Opinion of the Euskadi Legal Advisory Commission, at the proposal of the Minister of Economic Development and Competitiveness, after deliberation and approval by the Governing Council at its meeting held on September 6, 2016,
I HAVE:
