Under article R.511-11-II e) of the French Environment Code, the 2% rule stipulates that hazardous substances present in an establishment in quantities equal to or less than 2% of the relevant threshold quantity are not taken into account in calculating the total quantity if their location within the establishment is such that the substances cannot trigger a major accident elsewhere in the establishment.

For this rule to apply, the location of the quantity of products stored must not be capable of causing a domino effect on another facility, and the quantity stored must be less than 2% of the Seveso threshold relevant for determining status.
