Conduct an evaluation of the design of all new and existing tank farms at the ITC Deer Park terminal against the applicable sections of the Third Edition of API STD 2610, Design, Construction, Operation, Maintenance, and Inspection of Terminal and Tank Facilities and the 2021 Edition of NFPA 30, Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code. At a minimum the evaluation should include, but is not limited to the following sections of API STD 2610:
Section 4 Site Selection and Spacing Requirements
Section 7 Fire Prevention and Protection
Section 8.1 Aboveground Petroleum Storage Tanks
Section 9 Dikes and Berms
Section 10 Pipe, Valves, Pumps, and Piping Systems
Section 11 Loading, Unloading, and Product Transfer Facilities
and the following chapters of NFPA 30:
Chapter 21 Storage of Ignitible (Flammable or Combustible) Liquids in Tanks – Requirements for All Storage Tanks and
Chapter 22 Storage of Ignitible (Flammable or Combustible) Liquids in Tanks – Aboveground Storage Tanks
The evaluation should identify additional engineering controls needed to address minimal tank spacing, subdivisions between tanks, and placement of process equipment in containment areas. In addition, the evaluation should assess the adequacy of the containment wall and drainage system designs, accounting for the impact of firefighting activities, including the application of firewater and foam on these systems. Develop and implement recommendations based on findings from the evaluation.
