I would like tn know the distance to existing structures.
Joe Laird
Walters Ready Mix Tanks
after reviewing the plans for
ems need to be addressed:
Walters Ready Mix, I think the following
The tanks need to be approved aboveground tanks.
The roof and wall structure needs to be non-combustible.
The tanks need proper venting.
I would like to see the top partly open to avoid vapor buildup.
Provide clear area around structure with no smoking in the area.
Check with the Electrical Inspector to see if the wiring needs to be Class..
1 explosion proof.
If you need additions

The fiollowing mems need to be considered in regards to your fuel storage budding:
1 — The budIding should be at least SO ft. from any other building or from anpropertyY Ione.
2 -- The roof, trusses, and wall need to be constructed of non-combustible maierial.

4 — The tanks need proffer venting.
