Run Lead-Acid Battery Core Storage Pallet Audit — Free

Inspection Scope and Area Setup

Inspection area identified and limited to spent lead-acid battery storage pallet or rack critical (required)

Confirm the inspection covers the correct pallet, rack, or containment unit used for spent lead-acid battery storage.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Access to storage area is unobstructed and safe for inspection critical (required)

Walkway and approach to the pallet/rack are clear; no blocked access or unsafe reach required.

Yes No N/A

Battery storage area is posted or identified with required warning/handling information

Look for visible identification, handling instructions, or hazard communication appropriate to the stored batteries.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Housekeeping around pallet is clean and free of debris, loose parts, and ignition sources

Check the immediate area for clutter, metal debris, pooled liquid, or other conditions that could interfere with safe storage.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Battery Condition and Segregation

No cracked, split, bulging, or visibly damaged battery cases observed critical (required)

Inspect each visible battery case for cracks, deformation, broken terminals, or other physical damage.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

No visible electrolyte leakage, residue, or wetness on batteries or pallet critical (required)

Look for white/green corrosion, damp surfaces, staining, or liquid accumulation indicating leakage.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Spent batteries are stored upright and stable within the containment system critical (required)

Batteries should not be tipped, stacked unsafely, or positioned in a way that could cause release.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Damaged or leaking batteries are segregated from intact batteries critical (required)

Verify that suspect batteries are isolated per site procedure and not mixed with sound units.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Secondary Containment Integrity

Pallet, rack, or containment tray is free of cracks, corrosion, warping, or structural damage critical (required)

Inspect all visible surfaces, corners, welds, seams, and supports for damage that could compromise containment.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Containment capacity appears adequate for stored batteries and potential leakage critical (required)

Confirm the containment system is not overfilled and can reasonably capture releases from the stored batteries.

Yes No N/A

No standing liquid, overflow, or evidence of bypass around the containment edge critical (required)

Check the base, drain points, and perimeter for liquid accumulation or signs that containment has been compromised.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Containment surface is compatible with battery storage and not degraded by acid exposure

Look for softening, pitting, discoloration, or other material degradation from electrolyte exposure.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Labeling, Handling, and Fire Safety Controls

Storage area has clear no-smoking and ignition control controls in place critical (required)

Verify controls intended to reduce ignition risk near lead-acid batteries are visible and maintained.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Battery handling instructions and PPE requirements are posted or readily available

Check for site-specific instructions covering gloves, eye protection, and safe handling of damaged batteries.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Required labels or identification remain legible and attached

Confirm labels are not missing, faded, or obscured by dirt, corrosion, or stored materials.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Fire extinguisher or emergency response equipment is accessible within the area critical (required)

Verify emergency equipment is present, unobstructed, and appropriate for the area per site procedure.

Yes No N/A

Spill Response, Records, and Corrective Actions

Spill kit or neutralization materials are available and accessible nearby critical (required)

Confirm spill response materials appropriate for battery electrolyte are present and not expired or depleted.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

Inspection findings documented with location, date, and observed deficiencies

Record any non-conformance, including cracked cases, leakage, damaged containment, or housekeeping issues.

Yes No N/A

Corrective actions assigned for all deficiencies requiring follow-up

Document who will correct the issue, what action is needed, and the target completion date.

Yes No N/A
