Is there any relationship between material inventory and project application?

Our factory is adding 2 vertical atmospheric storage tanks of Class A/B type (400 cubic meters each) to the existing tank area. Our management says that this should be treated as a project: first, it needs to be registered with the Economic Commission, followed by an assessment of safety conditions, a safety pre-evaluation, and an environmental impact assessment... May I ask: (1) Is it necessary to do this? (2) Should material of Category A/B be treated as a separate project once it exceeds a certain quantity, following Procedure No. 8? (3) Can we just proceed with the design change?
Requirements vary from place to place. It’s very troublesome to follow the \"three simultaneities\" approach.
It’s not possible, unless the volume of the storage tank is reduced.
Don’t all new construction, renovation, and expansion projects for hazardous chemical facilities have to comply with Order No. 8? If the design is changed, does it not follow Order No. 8?
Class A B level of hazard is also acceptable; there are certainly requirements specified by the standards.
If your materials are classified as hazardous goods, and of course when the quantity exceeds a certain level, **the relevant department will pay special attention to them.
It mainly depends on whether the conditions for being considered a major hazard source are met
There are quite a few restrictions when doing things now, so it’s better to follow the requirements step by step
It is relevant; it mainly depends on whether it constitutes a major hazard source. Hehe, new construction, renovations, and expansions all require compliance with the \"three simultaneities\" principle. The fact that your supervisor is willing to enforce this shows that he attaches great importance to safety; you, who are in charge of safety, should be glad about that.
It is relevant; it is mainly used to determine whether a significant hazard source exists.
Is there such a regulation? For example (hypothetically): ethanol is quite dangerous, and it’s stipulated that a single tank can hold no more than 1,000 cubic meters； Methanol is even more dangerous; there is a rule stating that a tank can hold no more than 200 cubic meters. Is such a regulation in place?
