I've never heard of any of the 3 mentioned types of "hazardous" sites!, but
from what has been said, Seveso & the other terms are used for sites that
could potentially be hazardous, & the governing body has determined that
"this spot" is potentially "very" dangerous, while these one's aren't so
bad.

I'd suggest we run with the level of risk determined by the authorities?

I don't think that it's a thing that a mapper walking past the front gate
is going to be able to say "Aha, this is a Soveso Class 1 plant"! (Unless,
of course, it's signposted that way, & I'd sort of doubt that!)

Thanks

Graeme
