580.51 Section
580.5 shall apply to all gasoline bulk plants.
580.511 It shall be unlawful for any person
to cause or allow the storage of gasoline in tanks with a capacity of two
thousand one hundred liters (550 gallons) or greater unless such storage is in
tanks meeting the following conditions:
580.5111 Each storage tank shall be equipped
with a submerged fill line.
580.512 It shall be unlawful for any person
to cause or allow transfer of gasoline between a storage tank and a transport
tank except under the following condition:
580.5121 All transport tanks shall be
submerged filled or bottom loaded.
580.52 Section 580.52 shall apply to all bulk
gasoline plants with an annual gasoline throughput greater than seven million
six hundred thousand liters (2,000,000 gallons).
580.521 It shall be unlawful for any person
to cause or allow the storage of gasoline in tanks with a capacity of two
thousand one hundred liters (550 gallons) or greater unless such storage is in
tanks meeting the following conditions.
580.5211 Each storage tank shall be equipped
for vapor balancing of gasoline vapors with transport tanks during gasoline
transfer operations.
580.5212 The
vapor line fittings on the storage tank side of break points with the transport
tank vapor connection pipe or hose shall be equipped to close automatically
upon planned or unintentional disconnect.
580.5213 The pressure relief valves on
storage tanks shall be set at the highest possible pressure consistent with
local and state codes for fire and safety.
580.522 Except as provided in 580.523 of this
section, it shall be unlawful for any person to cause or allow the transfer of
gasoline into or out of any transport tank at a bulk gasoline plant unless said
transfer is in compliance with the following conditions:
580.5221 The transport tank shall be equipped
with the proper attachment fittings to make vapor-tight connections for vapor
balancing with storage tanks; and
580.5222 The vapor line fittings on the
transport tank side of break points with the storage tank connection pipe or
hose shall be equipped to close automatically upon planned or unintentional
disconnect; and
580.5223 The
pressure relief valves on transport tanks shall be set at the highest possible
pressure consistent with local and state codes for fire and
safety.
580.523 The vapor
line fittings on the storage tank side of break points with the transport tank
vapor connection pipe or hose shall be equipped to close automatically upon
planned or unintentional disconnect.
580.5231
The transport tank is used exclusively for the delivery of gasoline into
storage tanks of a facility exempt from the vapor balance requirements of
580.6; and
580.5232 The transport
tank has a total capacity less than fifteen thousand liters (4,000 gallons) and
is of a compartmented design and construction requiring the installation of
four or more separate vapor balance fittings.
580.524 The pressure relief valves on storage
tanks shall be set at the highest possible pressure consistent with local and
state codes for fire and safety.
580.5241 The
loading of all transport tanks, exempted under 580.523 of this section, shall
be performed such that at least ninety percent by weight of the gasoline vapors
displaced during filling are prevented from being released into the ambient
air; providing that emissions from pressure relief valves shall not be included
in the controlled emissions. This emission limitation will be met by vapor
balancing in compliance with all provisions of this section.
580.525 It shall be
unlawful for any person to cause or allow continued transfer of gasoline at any
transfer point following occurrence of failure or leakage in any part of the
vapor balance system, provided that occurrence of failure or leakage during
loading or unloading of a transport tank shall not prevent the complete loading
or unloading of the tank.
580.526
It shall be unlawful for any person to cause or permit the operation of a bulk
gasoline plant or a transport tank without taking reasonable necessary measures
to prevent the spilling, discarding in sewers, storing in open containers or
handling of gasoline in a manner on the plant site that will result in
evaporation to the ambient air.
580.53 Except as provided in 580.54 of this
section, it shall be unlawful for any person to cause or allow the transfer of
gasoline into or out of any transport tank at a bulk gasoline plant unless said
transfer is in compliance with the following conditions:
580.531 The transport tank shall be equipped
with the proper attachment fittings to make vapor-tight connections for vapor
balancing with storage tanks; and
580.532 The vapor line fittings on the
transport tank side of break points with the storage tank connection pipe or
hose shall be equipped to close automatically upon planned or unintentional
disconnect; and
580.533 The
pressure relief valves on transport tanks shall be set at the highest possible
pressure consistent with local and state codes for fire and safety.
580.54 Transport tanks used for
gasoline shall be exempt from the requirement to be equipped with any
attachment fitting for vapor balance lines, provided the following conditions
are met:
580.541 The transport tank is used
exclusively for the delivery of gasoline into storage tanks of a facility
exempt from the vapor balance requirements of 580.6; and
580.542 The transport tank has a total
capacity less than fifteen thousand liters (4,000 gallons) and is of a
compartmented design and construction requiring the installation of four or
more separate vapor balance fittings.
580.55 It shall be unlawful for any person to
cause or allow transfer of gasoline between a storage tank and a transport tank
except under the following conditions:
580.551
The loading of all transport tanks, except those exempted under 580.54 of this
section, shall be performed such that ninety percent by weight of the gasoline
vapors displaced during filling are prevented from being released into the
ambient air; providing that emissions from pressure relief valves shall not be
included in the controlled emissions. This emission limitation will be met by
vapor balancing in compliance with all provisions of this section.
580.56 It shall be unlawful for
any person to cause or allow continued transfer of gasoline at any transfer
point following occurrence of failure or leakage in any part of the vapor
balance system, provided that occurrence of failure or leakage during loading
or unloading of a transport tank shall not prevent the complete loading or
unloading of the tank.
580.57 It
shall be unlawful for any person to cause or permit the operation of a bulk
gasoline plant or a transport tank without taking reasonable necessary measures
to prevent the spilling, discarding in sewers, storing in open containers or
handling of gasoline in a manner on the plant site that will result in
evaporation to the ambient air.
