Better lop off your arms and legs too .. you might "terrorise" someone by kicking or punching them! Any decent risk analysis of the situation would highlight health and safety as the primary concern (it might just hurt someone if it blows up!) and criminal activity as the next (ie. basic theft or malicious use in a "normal" crime). Terrorists are most likely to be native first of all, not foreign or anything to do with world events; and secondly, you probably believe you're likely to win the lottery on a regular basis if you believe you're genuinely at risk from such an attack! Considering the massive explosion here in the UK at Buncefield some years back (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buncefield_fire) due to inadequate monitoring and H&S precautions, I would have imagined any regulatory need for this request would be from that angle. My recommendation in that case, as others have stated, is to get a professionally installed and certified system put in. Anything less could lead to liability questions. As with anything regulatory, your company should have a legal view on the legislation and documented approach justifying your compliance with it. a

Better get on it. Wonder if we should monitor the 400 gallon diesel tank for the generator just in case...

We have a large propane tank here and apparently the "gummint" is worried about it being used as a bomb or something... not that it would likely damage anyone except us... *sigh* Gotta love Uncle Sam. From: Jonathan Link [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2010 2:28 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Networked camera Monitoring implies recording. You need a system, and the camera is but a part of it. Also, what law or rule is requiring this? I know of one location that has a large tank which is currently unmonitored, but it is secured by chainlink, razor wire and what appears to be a quite strong lock/chain.

Anyone got any suggestions for something they like? Don't know whether we'll be required to monitor it 24/7 or record it or what.... All I know is that our maintenance manager told me that he's going to need a camera to monitor the propane tanks. ************************************************************************************ WARNING: The information in this email and any attachments is confidential and may be legally privileged.
