1910.106 tells you what you need as far as storage of flammable liquids. Why are you moving it around? I do not see this as a good idea to moving a container of gasoline around on a forklift. The container better be secured to the skid and the skid secured to the forks. The area it is moving

I need some info on the requirements of flammable storage tanks. Tank size is 50-100 gallons, will be mounted on a skid to be moved around with a forklift. Does it have to be double walled ect? Thanks for your input

1910.101(b): "Compressed gases." The in-plant handling, storage, and utilization of all compressed gases in cylinders, portable tanks, rail tankcars, or motor vehicle cargo tanks shall be in accordance with Compressed Gas Association (CGA) Pamphlet P-1-1965, which is incorporated by reference

We have many (50 or so) gallon-size cans of paint (latex as well as enamels), and some 5-gallon size (10 or so) , and quite a few(70 or so) spray cans of paint stored on a rack inside our maintenance workshop at our hotel. I know there are specificOSHA regulations about storage of such materials

Sgull, This is a tuff question because of your industry but I hope this help. The storage of flammable materials must meet the provisions of the flammable and combustible liquids standard, 1910.106. Specific standards related to the design and construction of inside storage rooms can be found

My opinion on matters is that you cant ever be too safe. We require all aerosol cans to be stored in a flammable storage cabinet no matter what amount is available. The requirements may be different by OSHA but I would rather be too safe than not safe enough in their eyes. Good luck

There is some confussion on how aerosol cans are to be stored. Some say they all must be stored in a flammable cabinet, and some say only if the amount equals 25 gallons or more. So what is the proper storage of aerosol cans? I just can't seem to find a clear answer.P.S cool site

KEEP IN MIND, THAT THE FLAMMABLE STORAGE CABINETS. BUILT TO MEET OSHA AND NFPA STANDARDS LABELED IN LARGE LETTERS: FLAMMABLE--KEEP FIRE AWAY MAXIMUM OF 120 GALLONS OF CLASS I, II, AND III A LIQUIDS (60 GALLONS OF CLASSES I AND II) MAXIMUM OF THREE CABINETS MAY BE LOCATED IN A GIVEN FIRE AREA

Check this out. Although it is titled with the Montana Department of Labor and Industry, it containsthe OSHA 29 CFR§1910.106(d)(3) regulation (flammable liquid storage). I'm not sure if some regulations listed later in the document are exclusive rules from the MDLI, but it's a start! -Justin

We also use the 20' high storage racks in our facility. Accidents do happen and depending on the type of powered industrial truck that is being used can at times make it difficult to see the out... to replace a common upright. We decided to use the guards to protect the storage rack
