Protection of Liquid Fuel Storage Tanks
Liquid fuel storage tanks and pipework must be constructed and separated from adjacent buildings and boundaries to reduce fire risk.
Reasonable provision shall be made to ensure that a liquid fuel storage tank and connecting pipework is so constructed and separated from adjacent buildings and the boundary of the premises as to reduce to a reasonable level the risk of the fuel contained inside it igniting in the event of a fire occurring in adjacent buildings or premises.
