Ottawa Airside Vehicle Operator's Program (AVOP) Practice Test

During fueling, which safety equipment should be available?

Fire extinguisher should be available. A gas-powered blower must be used. A portable water bottle is sufficient. No safety equipment is required.

Correct Answer:

Fire extinguisher should be available.

Explanation:

Fuel vapors from the fuel being dispensed are highly flammable, so having an accessible fire extinguisher allows a quick response to any small fire and helps prevent a dangerous spread. A fire extinguisher rated for flammable liquids (Class B or ABC) is the appropriate safety equipment for fueling operations. The other options introduce risks (a gas-powered blower can create sparks or heat, a portable water bottle isn’t a proper fire-safety tool, and saying no safety equipment is required is incorrect).
