The base plate includes a cover cap hingedly mounted to the base plate diametrically aligned relative to the slot, with the base plate and cover cap including cooperating flanges and cooperating apertures within the flanges to receive a lock member simultaneously through the flanges to secure the cover cap in an overlying contiguous communication to the base plate to prevent access to the valve handle preventing unauthorized rotation of the valve handle.
