The secondary containment rules (specifically R 324.1002(3)(d)(ii)) specify that containment for only hydrocarbon storage tanks must be constructed pursuant to R 29.2301 et seq. What is R 29.2301?
R 29.2301 et seq. has been superseded by 1992 AASC, R 29.4101 et seq. These are the rules on storage and handling of flammable and combustible liquids, enforced by the Fire Marshal. Our Rule 1002 specifies that the containment volume must meet that specified in the Fire Marshal Rules – which is 100% of the volume of the largest enclosed tank handling flammable and combustible liquids. Brine storage requirements and secondary containment construction requirements are not addressed in the Fire Marshal Rules but standards are established in other portions of R324.1002.
