Statute overview

About this statute

If certain operational or substance changes could significantly affect major-accident risk, the industrial operator must review and, if needed, update key safety documents and notify the regional competent authority before making the changes. Los establecimientos afectados deben tener un plan de emergencia interior, compartirlo con las empresas vinculadas, y someter los planes a remisión, consulta y revisión periódica por las autoridades autonómicas. Regional competent authorities must take accident-prevention and consequence-limitation objectives into account when land is allocated or used, and they may require a prior technical opinion on establishment-related risks before urban-planning decisions. The competent authority must make safety information public and keep it updated, and industrial operators may request that certain report parts remain undisclosed for confidentiality or security reasons. Industrial operators must immediately report a qualifying serious-accident incident to the competent regional authority and then provide detailed follow-up information; the competent authority must also take response and investigation measures after a serious accident.
