• • 05/26/98 TUE 10:38 FAX 608 261 7725 DEPT OF COMMERCE ERS — JC 003 <br /> The Department has responded to building contractor concerns regarding sites which experience <br /> changing construction logistics. Construction may progress from one area on the site to another, resulting <br /> in various staging areas having to be periodically relocated. Another practice involves equipment with <br /> limited mobility located in areas where it is more practical to take the fuel to the equipment, rather than <br /> move the equipment to a fixed storage tank. An example is drilling, mixing, and support equipment <br /> located in below grade excavations. The Department will allow mobile fuel storage tanks at construction <br /> sites if the mobile tank is designed to comply with NFPA 385 requirements and is no larger than 1,100 <br /> gallon capacity. <br /> May 21, 97 <br /> Bureau of Storage Tank Regulation <br /> PO Box 7969 <br /> Madison, WI 53707 <br /> Tanks Elevated For Gravity Discharge <br /> (Farm & Construction Sites Only!) <br /> Maximum size - 1100 gallons capacity <br /> Listed hose and Free opening vent. <br /> self-closing valve.
