February 2017 Page 11 2.4 OVERFILL PROTECTION 1 2, 3, Provisions for tank overfill protection shall include an allowance in the tank fill level that will provide additional storage capacity above the design maximum working level. The additional storage capacity is above the maximum working level, where the required additional tank volume is calculated based on an estimated operations response time, the maximum product inflow rate, and the hazard associated with tank overfill for each specific tank installation. ‘See API Standard 2350 for additional guidance regarding tank overfill prevention. Unless approved by the Principal, the minimum response time shall be 15 minutes, The selected response time is normally based on a detailed estimate of the time needed to respond to an alarm, considering the estimated time required for ‘operations to diagnose a high-level alarm, and the time required to complete the response actions, including a factor of safety. ‘Subject to approval by the Principal, the response time can be adjusted either upwards (higher) or downwards (lower), if site specific operating experience substantiates a proven case for use of a different response time, including consideration of the risk associated with tank overfill for each specific tank installation. ‘See AP! 2350 for additional guidance regarding selection of an appropriate response time. For small diameter storage tanks that are filled via a high flow pipeline, the response time may be reduced subject to a detailed risk assessment that is reviewed and approved by the Principal For each individual tank design, the additional product storage capacity provided for overfill protection shall be set as follows: High Level (HL); High Level (HL) is the liquid elevation set above the maximum working level to provide a minimum response time of fifteen minutes (15), or the Principal approved alternative response time, based on the maximum product inflow rate. High High Level (HHL). High High Level (HHL) is the liquid elevation set above the high level (HL) to permit a minimum response time of fifteen minutes (15), or the Principal approved alternative response time, based on the maximum product inflow rate. To establish the overall shell height, the following are minimum requirements for each tank design: a. the perimeter seal systems of an internal floating roof shall not collide with the underside of the rafter members of a fixed roof tank; b. the perimeter seal systems of an external floating roof tank shall not ride over the open top shell course; ©. the shunts of an external floating roof seal system shall always be in contact with the tank shell; for a fixed roof tank, where an overflow nozzle or foam chamber is provided, the maximum design liquid height shall remain 50 mm (2 in) below the inlet elevation of the overflow nozzle or the foam chamber.25 26 DEP 34.51.01.33-Gen. February 2017 Page 12 LOW LEVEL SET POINTS 1. Low level (LL) is the minimum permissible product level in an operating tank, below which operational or safe guarding controls will be compromised 2. Low level (LL) set points are based on the following: Low Level (LL) for fixed roof tanks shall be the product elevation at which the level in the tank reaches the crown of the tank outlet nozzle; b. Low Level (LL) for floating roof tanks shall be the product elevation at which the floating roof support legs make contact with the tank bottom plates (ie., the landed position of the floating roof). Low Operating Level (LOL) provides buffer zone above the low level (LL). The intention of the LOL is to terminate product draw down at the upper elevation of the buffer zone. 3. To establish the lowest permissible Low Operating Level (LOL) set points, the following are the minimum requirements for each tank design: ‘a. Low Operating Level (LOL) for fixed roof tanks shalll be set between 50 mm —76 mm (2 in~3 in) above the crown of the product outlet nozzle; b. Low Operating Level (LOL) for floating roof tanks shall be set at the lowest product elevation at which the bleeder vents remain closed. Operation at product levels below the LOL will result in the bleeder vent support legs making contact with the tank bottom, thus causing the bleeder vents to open and leading to emissions from the tank. 4, Where multiple product outlet nozzles are provided for a fixed roof tank, the nozzle with the highest elevation shall be used to determine the LL and LOL set points. 5. When establishing low level setpoints for floating roof tanks, contact between the roof and side entry mixer impellers or other internal tank appurtenancesifixtures shall be avoided, a. A minimum clearance of 100 mm (4 in) should be provided. 6. Where fixed roof tanks are designed with internal heating coils, the Low Level (LL) shall be selected to ensure the heating coils remain submerged by a minimum of 150 mm (6 in) of product, FUGITIVE EMISSIONS 1. For the control of fugitive emissions, selection of aboveground storage tanks for a specific hydrocarbon service shall be based on local jurisdictional regulations. 2. Unless local regulations are more stringent, the following guidelines can be used for storage tank selection: ‘a, the true vapour pressure for hydrocarbons stored in fixed roof tanks without an internal floating roof should not exceed 10.34 kPa (103 mbar or 1.5 psia) b. products with a true vapour pressure greater than 10.34 kPa (103 mbar 1.5 psia), but not exceeding 86 kPa (860 mbar or 12.5 psia), should be stored in floating roof tanks; ©. products with true vapour pressure greater than 86.0 kPa (860 mbar or 12.5 psia) should be stored in tanks with vapour recovery systems, low-pressure refrigerated storage tanks, or in pressurised storage vessels; d. tanks under 4,000 L (25.2 bbls) volume and 4.0 m (13 ft) diameter storing hydrocarbon products that have a true vapour pressure between 10.34 kPa (103 mbar or 1.5 psia) and 76 kPa (760 mbar or 11.0 psia), may use pressure vacuum vents in lieu of an internal floating roof.27 28 29 DEP 34.51.01.33-Gen. February 2017 Page 13 PRODUCTS 1 ‘The provisions under this DEP are applicable for aboveground vertical tanks intended for the storage of a range of refined hydrocarbon products, including crude oil, bitumen and molten sulphur. HEEL REDUCTION 1 Any proposed heel reduction options shall be subject to approval of the Principal FOUNDATIONS 1 Foundations for aboveground storage tanks shall be selected based on consideration of the site specific geotechnical conditions at the location for the tank. Refer to DEP 34.11.00.11-Gen and API Standard 650 Annex B for additional guidance regarding selection of the foundation for an aboveground storage tank. All tank foundations shall be designed and constructed to uniformly transfer loads, minimize tank settlement, prevent water pooling around the base of the foundation and safeguard against underside corrosion of the bottom plates, The following types of foundations are generally used for aboveground storage tanks: compacted granular ringwall or gravel pad; = concrete ring beam with compacted granular infil, ‘The type of foundation shall be subject to approval of the Principal, A concrete mat or pile cap type foundation is considered when dictated by site- specific subsurface geotechnical conditions. A concrete slab type foundation is specified to deal with particular environmental or ‘chemical issues. ‘Tank foundations shall be designed with the tank bottom elevated a minimum of 300 mm (12 in) above the surrounding finished grade, a. For sites that have poor drainage or are prone to frequent flooding, the tank foundation elevation shall be increased to prevent moisture ingress and maintain a dry tank bottom. The increase in elevation is normally based on the worst-case rainfall rates ‘expected for the tank site, and the estimated depth of ponding around the tank from a short-term rainfall event. ‘The compacted granular pad shall be overlain with a 75 mm (3 in) thick compacted asphalt bedding layer. a. The maximum particle size for the aggregate component of the asphalt mix shall not exceed 6 mm (1/4 in) The purpose of the asphalt bedding layer is to provide a uniform base for the bottom plates, to seal the underside of the tank against moisture ingress and to act as an isolation layer between the bottom plates and foundation granular fil material. ‘The asphalt bedding layer shall be compacted and finished to match the design profile of the tank bottom, ‘The surface of the compacted asphalt bedding layer shall have a smooth finish to ensure that no sharp edges from the aggregates will protrude against the underside of the tank bottom plates.2.10 2a 10. 1, 12, 13. 14. DEP 34.51.01.33-Gen. February 2017 Page 14 The shoulders of the compacted gravel pad shall be lined with a compacted asphalt apron (topping) or other impervious overiay (e.g., concrete), to stop erosion and, prevent moisture ingress into the foundation base. ‘The seam along the outer edge of the chime plate shall be cleaned and sealed with a weather resistant industrial grade bitumastic sealant to prevent water ingress under the bottom plates, When a concrete mat or slab type foundation is provided, the finish on the concrete surface shall be trowelled smooth and free from any sharp pebbles or protrusions, Where a concrete mat or slab type foundation is completed with a smooth trowel finish, the tank bottom plates can be placed directly on the as finished concrete surface. Where a concrete mat or slab type foundation is not completed with a smooth trowel finish, a bedding layer with a 50 mm (2 in) thick compacted granular asphalt medium shall be provided between the concrete surface and the tank bottom plates. Asphalt bedding shall not be used on foundations that support storage tanks with bottom side cathodic protection, The asphalt layer will shield the cathodic protection current from reaching the underside of the tank bottom plates. ‘The natural grade around the tank base shall be sloped away from the tank to prevent ponding and permit efficient shedding of rainwater runoff away from the tank foundation, RELEASE PREVENTION BARRIER/LEAK DETECTION SYSTEM 1 If required by local legislative regulations or where specified by the Principal, the tank foundation shall include an impermeable hydrocarbon release prevention barrier (RPB) complete with an extemal leak detection system. ‘The RPB shall be installed to drain to a collection sump which is connected via approved piping to a leak detection monitoring well located outside the edges of the tank foundation base, The Principal's Technical Authority - Storage Tanks shall be consulted for advice on options for site specific design requirements for release prevention barrierileak detection systems. API Standard 650 Annex I (Undertank Leak Detection and Subgrade Protection) provides additional guideance for design and installation of release prevention barrier and leak detection systems. CATHODIC PROTECTION 1 If specified by the Principal, cathodic protection shall be provided to protect the underside of the bottom plates in direct contact with the tank foundation. Refer to DEP 30.10.73.10-Gen for additional requirements for design and installation of cathodic protection systems. The Principal's Technical Authority — Storage Tanks shall be consulted for project specific advice and guidance on cathodic protection design and installation requirements.212 2.13 DEP 34.51.01.33-Gen.

The Principal's Technical Authority - Technical Safety shall be consulted to address project specific fre protection requirements. 3. The tank Manufacturer/Supplier shall be accountable for design and installation of attachments, pipe risers, foam pourers, pipe support brackets, and splash plates as. required for the specified fire protection system, up to the grade level flange on the vertical riser. 4, Beyond the grade level flange on the vertical riser, connections and tie-ins to the facility fre water hydrant system and foam supply, including commissioning of the fire protection system, shall be the responsibility of the Principal (unless this is specifically included in the tank Manufacturer/Supplier's scope of work). INSULATION 1, The Principal's Technical Authority — Storage Tanks shall be consulted to provide guidance on project specific requirements for insulation, Refer to DEP 30.46.00.31-Gen for additional guidance regarding design and installation of insulation systems. 2. Unless otherwise specified, insulated tanks shall have the shell externally coated with an industrial grade primer prior to application of insulation, a. The selection of the primer shall be subject to approval of the Principal. b. Primer application shall be in accordance with the coating Manufacturer's specifications, 3, When specified by the Principal, the shell of insulated tanks may be externally coated with thermal spray aluminium (TSA) in accordance with DEP 30.48.40.31-Gen. 4, Subject to approval by the Principal, the shell of insulated storage tanks may be left uncoated in regions where year round ambient conditions are very dry with low humidity (e.g., Northern Alberta. 5, Design for spacing of fasteners to secure the insulation cladding and flashings shall be based on exposure to the site specific design wind conditions. 6. Tank insulation shall be designed to commence approximately 150 mm (6 in) above the floor to shell joint. The 150 mm (6 in) gap is intended to keep the external floor fo shell weld exposed to enable routine inspection. 7. To.commence the insulation 150 mm (6 in) above the floor to shell weld, the bottom edge of the insulation shall be supported on a flat plate ledge that is seal welded to the tank shell along the entire perimeter. 8. Adrip edge shall be provided around the entire perimeter over the lower edge of the insulation cladding to shed rain water away from the floor plate projection,2.14 2.15 2.16 DEP 34.51.01.33-Gen.
