Section 7

No petroleum or dangerous petroleum shall be taken out of any vessel until a permit therefor has been granted by the Port Master, or landed except in accordance with the conditions set forth in the permit and at the place stated in the permit.

No such permit shall be given until the petroleum has been tested and, provided that the inspector thinks it necessary, the receptacles containing the dangerous petroleum inspected and passed in accordance with this Act or any rules made thereunder.

In the case of dangerous petroleum, the permit shall not be granted until the licence to store it, required by this Act or any rules or by-laws made thereunder, has been produced.

Any person who takes or lands any petroleum or dangerous petroleum in contravention of this section, or permits the petroleum or dangerous petroleum to be so taken or landed, shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding $500.

For the purposes of this section the master of any vessel from which any petroleum or dangerous petroleum is taken shall be deemed to have permitted it to be so taken.
