PETROLEUM ACTS.
As Inspector under the Petroleum Acts I periodically visit the 45
licensed premises for the storage of petroleum spirit and carbide of
calcium, of which four were newly licensed during the year. The
total amount of spirit permitted to be kept is 28,078 gallons.
Several underground storage systems have been installed during the
year ; others are considering the adoption of the system, which is
to be encouraged.
I am,
Your obedient servant,
Charles 6. Rabbetts,
Senior Sanitary Inspector.
