EXTERIOR CLEANING.
Dirt on the tank and tank accessories should be flushed off with water daily.

The interior of the tank requires little cleaning if it is used for the same fuel. If
cleaning is needed, use an external fuel line loop with a pump and filter/separator capable of recirculating 350
gallons (1.32 kiloliters) per minute. Continue to circulate fuel until dirt or contamination is removed.

INSPECTION. The tank will be inspected weekly to ensure that the equipment is ready for operation at all times.
Through regular inspection, defects can be found and corrected before serious damage occurs. Defects found
during operation should be noted and corrected as soon as fueling operations have stopped. Refer to table 4-1
