FUEL OIL STORAGE TANKS AND ACCESSORIES
2.3.1
Fuel Oil Storage Tanks
**************************************************************************
NOTE: For steel aboveground tanks with a capacity
of more than 19 cubic meters 5000 gallons, provide a
manhole in accordance with UL 142.
**************************************************************************
**************************************************************************
NOTE: For aboveground tanks with a capacity larger
than 2501 liters 660 gallons, provide a dike to
contain entire contents of tank or largest single
tank in a bulk storage tank installation, with
sufficient freeboard to allow for precipitation or a
drainage system leading to an inplant catch basin or
holding pond.
**************************************************************************
**************************************************************************
NOTE: State Environmental Control Regulations are
becoming increasingly more restrictive when it comes
to installing new underground fuel tank systems.
Some states are now requiring leak detection
monitoring systems and secondary containment for
piping. Currently, NAVFAC policy requires
double-walled tanks with interstitial monitoring
capability. The designer shall check to ensure that
the tank and piping system being provided will meet
the current state, regional and local laws,
regulations, statutes, etc. Refer to Section 13216,
"Underground Petroleum Tanks" for underground tanks.
**************************************************************************
Construct fuel oil tanks of steel to comply with NFPA 30, NFPA 31, and UL
142. [Each fuel oil tank shall have a [_____] mm inchdiameter manhole on
top, with the same diameter extension neck, and bolted cover with gastight
gasket. Tank shall include an interior bolted ladder.] Provide openings
for fill, vent, pump suction, oil return, oil level gage [, and oil
heater]. Size vent pipes according to NFPA 30, NFPA 31, and UL 142 but not
less than 32 mm 1 1/4 inch nominal inside diameter. Vent pipe shall
connect to tapping at high end of tank and shall not extend more than 25 mm
one inch into tank. For underground tanks, refer to Section 13216
UNDERGROUND PETROLEUM TANKS.
