(b) Storage of butane, propane, or liquefied petroleum gas in a vessel that has a capacity of less than 40,000 gallons. (c) Storage and surge capacity of lubricating, hydraulic, and thermal oils and indirect heat transfer fluids. (d) Storage of no. 1 to no. 6 fuel oils as specified in ASTM D396, gas turbine fuel oils No. 2-GT to 4-GT as specified in ASTM D2880, aviation gas as specified in ASTM D910, jet fuels as specified in ASTM D1655, diesel fuel oils no. 2-D and 4-D as specified in ASTM D975, or biodiesel fuel oil and blends as specified in ASTM D6751 and ASTM D7467. The ASTM methods are adopted by reference in R 336.1902. (e) Storage of sweet crude or sweet condensate in a vessel that has a capacity of less than 40,000 gallons. (f) Storage of sour crude or sour condensate in a vessel that has a capacity of less than 40,000 gallons if vapor recovery or its equivalent is used to prevent the emission of vapors to the atmosphere. (g) Storage and handling equipment for gasoline, gasoline blends including ethanol, diesel fuel, or natural gas as follows: (i) Loading facilities handling less than 20,000 gallons per day for storage, mixing, blending, and handling of gasoline, and/or gasoline/ethanol blends, or for diesel fuel storage and handling. (ii) Dispensing facilities for storage, mixing, blending and handling of gasoline and/or gasoline/ethanol blends, for natural gas storage and handling, or for diesel fuel storage and handling.

(h) Storage and water dilution of aqueous solutions of inorganic salts, bases, and the following acids: (i) Sulfuric acid that is not more than 99% by weight. (ii) Phosphoric acid that is not more than 99% by weight. (iii) Nitric acid that is not more than 20% by weight. (iv) Hydrochloric acid that is not more than 11% by weight. (i) Storage, mixing, blending, or transfer operations of volatile organic compounds or noncarcinogenic liquids in a vessel that has a capacity of not more than 40,000 gallons where the contents have a true vapor pressure of not more than 1.5 psia at the actual storage conditions. (j) Pressurized storage of acetylene, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, helium, and other substances, excluding chlorine and anhydrous ammonia in a quantity of more than 500 gallons, that have a boiling point of 0 degrees Celsius or lower. (k) Storage containers and transfer operations of noncarcinogenic solid material, including silos, that only emit particulate matter and that are controlled with an appropriately designed and operated fabric filter collector system or an equivalent control system. (l) Filling of noncarcinogenic liquids in shipping or storage containers that have emissions that are released only into the general in-plant environment. (m) Storage of wood and wood residues. (n) Storage of methanol in a vessel that has a capacity of not more than 30,000 gallons.
