Scot,
I tried searching OSHA and couldn't find anything more.

scot,
i searched the archives yesterday when you posted this ('lake placid')
because i remember George Church first posted it several months ago. I
did
not reply because none of those posts said whether tank was bolted or
welded. Mistakes? as i type i am reminded of a quote i heard years ago
and i
use it nearly daily, since it fits me to a tee--
I MIGHT BE SLOW BUT I MAKE A LOT OF MISTAKES. (author unkown, to me
anyway).

Subject: water storage tank: 300,000 gallon size: failure: FL not NY
Tank fail was in FL, not NY--that they were wearing short sleeve shirts
in
early April should have been the clue. Make mistakes? I do.
I don't expect a response on this question, in part due to my
conviction
that we work with Fire Codes that provide safety conditions
a-level-above-the-minimum. If not, and we really were so close to
Occam's
dividing line between unsafe/safe, would we not be quicker to offer and
solve each other's life safety challenges and questions better? It
appears
to me, that money and liability take a priority before volunteering to
improve safety. And that luxury suggests we are
above-the-minimum level
of
safety.
best of health to you,

Does anyone know and care to share, whether the ~ 300,000 gallon tank
that
failed about the 7th of April in Lake Placid, NY in 2011 was a welded,
or
a
bolted tank? I am doing no litigation work, nor I am being paid by any
party relative to this incident.
