According to Executive Order VR-201-A, what must happen with breakaway reconnections?

• A. They must be reported to CARB within 48 hours
• B. They must be logged in the GDF Maintenance Log
• C. They must be performed by the station operator only
• D. They must be completed within 24 hours of the drive-off occurrence

Answer: (B)

The requirement that breakaway reconnections must be logged in the GDF (Gasoline Dispensing Facility) Maintenance Log is vital for maintaining accountability and ensuring that all issues are tracked appropriately. By documenting these incidents, the facility can monitor the frequency of drive-offs, assess the performance of the vapor recovery systems, and implement any necessary maintenance or improvements to prevent future occurrences. This logging process also assists regulatory bodies in verifying compliance with safety and environmental standards.

In contrast, the other choices present different administrative or operational actions that do not capture the essential requirement of logging for record-keeping and compliance purposes. Reporting to CARB within 48 hours might be important, but the immediate action of logging ensures that data is recorded in real-time within the maintenance operations framework. Additionally, requiring reconnections to be performed only by the station operator or completed within a specified time frame may not reflect the prioritization of systematic recording in the context of operational integrity.
