This standard was developed to guide the management of terminals and tanks in a manner that protects the environment and the safety of workers and the public. This standard is intended for petroleum terminal and tank facilities associated with marketing, refining, pipeline, and other similar facilities. This standard may be used as a resource and management guide by those responsible for such facilities and by those working on their behalf. This standard is a compilation of industry knowledge, information, and management practices for all relevant aspects of terminal and tank operations aggregated into an overview document comprising best practices.  The standard references other API publications or similar industry guides and standards to provide greater detail and additional information. It is intended to be consistent with, but is not a substitute for, any applicable federal, state, and local regulations. This standard presents requirements, recommendations, and options. Some provisions in this standard, as indicated by the use of the word shall, are mandatory and have to be followed to conform with this standard. Some provisions are recommended, as denoted by the word should, but are not mandatory. These provisions will need to be considered based on site-specific factors. Still other provisions are optional, as denoted by the word may. Typically, these will be given where a range of good options exists.  To foster greater awareness and assist the industry in addressing environmental, health, and safety concerns, API has undertaken the development of this single document aggregating the various standards, specifications, and recommended practices on the design, construction, operation, inspection, and maintenance of petroleum terminals and tanks.
