Latest version.
  • In the interest of the public safety of the citizens of Jefferson Parish, the requirements in Chapter 13, Article VIII, shall apply to any terminal, plant, site, warehouse or yard used for the processing or storage of hazardous materials in bulk as well as the owner or operator thereof (any of which may be referred to in this article as the "plant") whether the plant has or has not been designated by ordinance of the Jefferson Parish Council as a special permitted use for the processing or storage of hazardous materials in bulk. Each plant shall be totally responsible for the safety of its equipment and its operations. Designation as a special permitted use for the processing or storage of hazardous materials in bulk shall be based on the plant's representations to the parish and shall not create for the parish any liability for damages or injury related to a plant so designated.
