HOW IT COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED

.Necessary consideration should have provided to the concern raised by citizens.

. Effort had to be made in order to determine the cause and origin of the gasoline leakage.

. Proper inspection and maintenance.

.Avoidance of interference between different fluid transportation systems with different

materials.

SUGGESTION TO AVOID SIMILAR ACCIDENTS

.Proper inspection and maintenance.

.Having detailed information about the geological features of the ground and other pipeline
systems already existing under ground before installation of a new pipeline system.

.The labors involved in the actual installation process should atleast have a fundamental
knowledge about materials susceptible to corrosion and possibilities for material degradation.

.Proper guidelines and quality measures should be implemented.

.Use of safety alarms working with reference to variation in parameters such as pressure.

.Insulation of individual pipelines throughout its external surface area.

CONCLUSION
.Significance of this incident.

.Impact on the normal engineering practices.
