No person shall store, mix or transport a pesticide or insecticide at any airport except in connection with the application of such pesticide or insecticide within the limits of airport facilities, or when such pesticide or insecticide constitutes air freight and is stored and transported in conformance with all applicable State and Federal regulations.
Any person conducting aircraft servicing, maintenance, or testing of the fuel system using the air ventilation procedures, shall reduce the fuel tank atmosphere to below 20% of the lower flammable limit of the fuel vapors. Air ventilation, as used herein, means to pass undiluted air (air not containing flammable vapors) through an aircraft fuel tank to render the atmosphere of the tank below the lower flammable limit of the fuel vapors involved. Before any inspection or work is performed, tests by a qualified person shall be conducted to determine that the presence of flammable vapors in or around the fuel tank does not constitute a fire or explosion hazard. This condition shall be maintained throughout the period of inspection or work.
Electrical equipment used in the flammable vapor areas shall be approved for use in Class I, Group D, Division 1 Hazardous Locations, as defined in Chapter 9 of the Los Angeles Municipal Code (Electrical Code).
