Gas Can in Trash Can

Does this gas can in a trash can meet the requirements of secondary containment? I would say yes because the trash can has more volume than the gas can.

Secondary Containment Fail

I told the contractor and the contract specifies that all chemicals and gas-powered tools remain in secondary containment when not in use. So, either they aren’t telling all of the workers and sub-contractors, they aren’t inspecting their site, or maybe they don’t care.

Where’s the Gas Can?

On a construction erosion control “walk-through”, I just happened to look over and saw a red, round object. On close inspection it turned out to be a gas can full of gas. How it ended up here I never learned and I don’t know how they got it out but it wasn’t there for the next inspection a week later.
