for Ice Cream Partners
Dear Mr. Cantelmi:
In order to finalize your permit application the followinginformation is required:
/
A drawing showing the piping configuration from the tank to the generator.
The piping material and what type of secondary containment for piping
should it leak.
3) A drawing showing tank in secondary containment vault with minimum
clearance on either side of tank.
4) m .
5)
Is this a gravity feed system or are you using a pump. If a pump, you will

liquid-tight overflOw pipe at least one pipe size larger than the fill
pipe discharging by gravity back to the outside source of liquid or
to an approved location.

mm) away from the center line of the wall of the diked area.
EXCEPTIONS: I. Liqu~:fied petroleum gas containers of 125-gal-

of 660-gallon (2498 L) or less capacity.·
2. Horizontal separation is not required between aboveground LP-
gas containers and underground flammable and combustible liquid
tanks.

property, the tank shall be placed with the longitudinal axis paral-
lel to the nearest important exposure.
7902.2.4 Foam fire protection.
7902.2.4.1 Required systems. When required by the chief,
foam fire protection shall be provided for aboveground tanks,
other than pressure tanks operating at or above 1 psig (6.89 kPa),
when such tank, or group of tanks spaced less than 50 feet (15 240
mm) apart measured shell to shell, has a liquid surface area in
excess of 1,500 square feet (139.4 m2), and is
1.. Used for the storage of Class I or II liquids,
2. Used for storage of crude oil,
3. Used for in-process products and is located within I00 feet
(30 480 mm) of a fired still, heater, related fractioning or proces-
sing apparatus or similar device at a processing plant or petroleum
refinery as herein defined, or
4. Considered by the chief as presenting an unusual exposure
hazard because of topographical conditions; nature of occupancy,
proximity on the same or adjoining property, and height and char-
acter of liquids to be stored; and degree of private fire protection to
be provided and facilities of the' fire department to cope with flam-
mable liquid fires.
7902.2.4.2 Installation. Where foam fire protection is required,
installation shall be in accordance with UFC Standard 79-1.
7902.2.4.3 Foam storage. Where foam fire· protection is
required, foam-producing materials shall be stored on the prem-

EXCEPTION: Storage of foam-producing materials off the prem-
ises is allowed as follows:
1. Such materials stored off the premises shall be of the proper type
suitable for use with the equipment at the installation where required.
2. Such materials shall be immediately available at the storage loca-
tion at all times.

'~902.2.3.3
7902.Z6.3.3
7902.2.6.1 General. Stationary tanks shall be equipped with
adequate additional venting 'that will~re'lieVe excessive internal
pressure cat,sed by exposure to fires. . .
EXCEPTION: Tanks larger than 12.000-gallon (~5 420 L) capac-
ity storing Class III-B liquids and not within the diked area or the drain-
age pat~ of Class I or Il liquids do not require emergency relief, venting.
Emergency relief vents shall not be modified, obstructed or
otherwise altered such that the required are,.a o~' opening for the re-
quired flow rate is reduced.
7902.2.6.2 Type of venting device~ Aboveground storage tanks
shall be provided, with construction or devices that will relieve
excessive internal pressure caused by exposure fires.
Construction methods such as floating root's, lifter roofs, weak
roof-to-shell seams or other approved pressure-relieving
construction are allowed as methods providing emergency relief
venting. Weak roof-to-shell seams shall be constructed to fail
before any other seam.
Devices such as self-closing manhole covers, covers using l'ong
bolts that allow the cover to lift under internal pressure, an addi-
tional or larger relief valve or valves or rupture disks are allowed
for emergency relief venting. Such devices shall be approved.
7902.2.6.3 Venting sizing.
7902.2.6.3.1 General. Where emergency relief venting' is pro-
vided solely by pressure-relieving devices, the total' venting
capacity of both normal and emergency vents shall be enough-to
prevent rupture of the' shell or bottom of the tank, if vertical, or of
the shell or heads, if horizontal. If unstable liquids are stored, the
effects of heat or gas resulting from polymerization, decomposi-
tion, condensation or self-reactivity shall be taken into account.
The total capacity of both normal and emergency venting
devices shall not be less than that derived from Table 7902.2-H,
except as provided in Sections 7902.2.6.3.3 and 7902.2.6.3.4. The
wetted area of the tank shall be calculated on the basis of 55 per-
cent of the total exposed area of a sphe~:e or spheroid, 75 percent of
the total exposed area of a horizontal tank and the first 30 feet
'(9144 mm) above grade of the exposed shell area of a vertical tank.
See Appendix VI-C for the square footage of typical tank sizes.
7902.2.6.3.2 Tanks and storage vessels over 1 psig (6.89 kPa).
For tanks and storage vessels designed for pressures over I psig
(6.89 kPa), the total rate of venting shall be determined in accord-
ance with Table 7902.2-H, except that when the exposed wetted
area of the surface is greater than 2,800 square feet (260.1 m2), the
total rate of venting shall be in accordance with Table 7902.2-I or.
calculated by the following formula:
· CFH= 1,107 A0182
For SI: CMH = 220 A°.82
WHERE:
A = exposed wetted surthce, iA square feet (m2).
CFH = venting requirement, in cubic feet of free air per hour
(CMH = m3/h0.
The foregoing formula is based on Q ~- 21,000 A°.82 (For SI: (d =
43,198 A0'82).

relief venting capacity for a specific stable liquid can be deter-
mined by the following formula:
