The aboveground storage lank doesn't appear to meet the venting or <br /> emergency venting requirements required by fire code. Based upon different encounters with these types of tanks,this <br /> may be an indication that the tanks were at one point Underground Storage Tanks(UST). <br /> In doing some research, California Stale Fire Marshal Information Bulletin 14-005 was found, which prohibits USTs being <br /> used as ASTs. The bulletin references Section 5704.2.7,of the California Fire Code. The bulletin and its addendum are <br /> attached along with pictures of the tanks. We would like to make you aware of these potential fire code violations since <br /> our department does not have the authority to enforce these regulations. <br /> The tanks are owned by Maxim Crane. <br /> The contact for the facility is Mario Bermudez <br /> Phone:(510) 774-4117 <br /> Email: mbermudezOmaximcrane.00m <br /> If there are any questions or concerns,feel free to contact me at(209)953-6213 or cruvalcaba(a)siaov.ora <br /> We appreciate your assistance in this matter.
