Outcome
SECTION 11: SECURE STORAGE OF FERTILIZER SELF ASSESSMENT CHECKLIST FOR FARMERS
Mineral [or Manufactured] fertilizer is a valuable product for farmers and growers but is potentially dangerous in the wrong hands.
The storage and security of fertilizer in your possession is therefore of paramount importance and the purpose of this self assessment is to
help you to ensure that basic storage and security is maintained.
You must not sell fertilizer unless the purchaser is known by you to be a bona-fide user and if you re-sell ammonium nitrate fertilizer with
a high nitrogen content, (i.e. a nitrogen content of more than 28% of its weight), you must be in possession of a valid detonation
resistance certificate for that batch.
YES
1.
Did you obtain your fertilizer from a Fertilizer Industry Assurance Scheme (FIAS) approved supplier?
2.
Is your fertilizer stored away from areas where there is public access?
3.
Have you ensured that your fertilizer is not stored or left unattended within sight of a public highway?
4.
Do you have a current inventory of your fertilizer stock?
5.
Does your inventory detail the type and brand of fertilizer delivered, stored and used?
6.
Do you have a record of the manufacturers’ code numbers
7.
Is your fertilizer stored in a secure building or compound?
Or
Is your fertilizer stored fully sheeted with tamper evident precautions?
8.
Do you have a protocol, which is known to all staff, detailing what action must be taken if stored fertilizer
is tampered with or unaccountably goes missing (i.e. theft)?
9.
How often do you check your fertilizer stock to ensure that any discrepancy is noticed as soon as possible?
(Tick as appropriate)
Daily □
Weekly □
Monthly □
10.
If you store 25 tonnes or more of fertilizer, have you notified your local fire officer and Health and
Safety Executive (HSE)? For further advise please refer to SI 1990 No. 304 – The Dangerous Substances
(Notification and Marking of Sites) Regulations 1990.
11.
If you are storing 150 tonnes or more of ammonium nitrate or ammonium nitrate based fertilisers which
contain more than 15.75% nitrogen by weight, have you notified the Health and Safety Executive?
If you have answered ‘NO’ to any of the above questions record what steps you are taking to make it ‘YES’.

APPENDIX: How to calculate the LERAP buffer zone applicable to the proposed spray operation
All records of LERAPs that have been conducted must be available for
inspection for a period of three years following the spray operation.
You will have considered the three key elements required to establish what
reduction in the buffer zone, if any, is applicable or the proposed
spray operation: the dose to be applied; the LERAP-Low Drift rating (star
rating) of spray equipment being used; and the size of the watercourse. In
order to calculate the reduction applicable you will need to refer to the
tables overleaf.
Tank Mixes
• If a tank mix contains a Category ‘A’ product then the standard 5m
(or 1m for a dry ditch) buffer zone always applies – i.e. the worst
case scenario applies.
A Identify which is the appropriate table. This will depend upon the star
rating of the sprayer being used.
• Where two or more Category ‘B’ products are tank mixed, the
qualifying dose (i.e. that used in the LERAP to calculate the required
buffer zone) is that of the product which is being applied at the
greatest dose relative to the maximum permitted for the use. For
example, if product ‘X’ at 3/4 dose is to be tank mixed with product
‘Y’ at 1/4 dose, then only the 3/4 dose is used for the LERAP.
B From the first row of the table, identify which column contains the
application rate that you have chosen.
C From the first column of the table, identify which row contains the
range within which the size of the associated watercourse falls.
• If only one of the products being mixed has a buffer zone
requirement, the dose at which that product is applied will be the
qualifying dose rate. For example, if product ‘X’ (Category B) at 1/4
dose is mixed with a 3/4 dose of product ‘Z’ (no buffer zone
requirement), then the former (i.e. 1/4) dose is the qualifying dose
used in the LERAP.
The box at which the column and row intersect contains the buffer
zone requirement which is applicable to the proposed application.
Make a record of the conclusions reached as a result of the LERAP
It is a legal requirement of the LERAP scheme that a written record be kept
of each LERAP conducted. Even if users simply decide instead to apply the
standard five metre buffer zone, that decision will still need to be recorded.
