around the waste oil recovery area and the biomass processing <br /> area to provide water for the facility. <br /> • A total of twelve fire hydrants would be located no more than <br /> 200 feet apart at strategic points throughout the facility. <br /> Three of these hydrants would be positioned around the waste <br /> oil recovery area. For maximum flexibility, foam could be <br /> piped through the fire water supply system. <br /> • The oil tanks would be protected by foam extinguishing <br /> systems. <br /> • Other major fire areas in the facility would be sufficiently <br /> protected with fire hydrants and other means as follows: <br /> (a) The office building and the briquette storage <br /> building would be protected with heat detection <br /> systems and automatic sprinkler systems. <br /> (b) The electric building would be protected by heat <br /> detectors and halon fire suppression systems. <br /> (c) The biomass drying equipment would be equipped <br /> with infrared spark detectors and an automatic <br /> deluge system. <br /> All equipment used for the fire protection system would be standard <br /> equipment conforming to the requirements specified by the National Fire <br /> Prevention Association (NFPA) . <br /> The facility owner should provide an in-house training program for <br /> emergency response capabilities. <br /> The entire fire protection system and on-site training provisions <br /> for the proposed facility should be carefully evaluated by the San <br /> Joaquin County Fire Warden and/or local fire authority to determine its <br /> effectiveness on containing and eliminating any type of fire starting <br /> within the facility. This evaluation should include the assessment of <br /> existing hazardous material fire fighting capabilities (available <br /> 3-19 <br /> 104-6.R3 4/10/89 <br />
