(3) The secondary containment system must be designed or operated to contain one hundred percent (100%) of the capacity of the largest tank within the secondary containment boundary.

(f) New aboveground tanks used to store used oil at burner facilities must be equipped with a secondary containment system and meet the following requirements:
