NFPA-704 diamond symbols on Storage Tanks
NFPA-704 diamond symbols on Storage Tanks
(OP)
to all,
NFPA - 704 has labeling requirements for storage tanks. (i.e. the commonly found "diamond" symbols)
What governing legal authority requires the use of such symbols ?Is it the local fire marshal or perhaps the insurance carrier ?
Is it necessary to place new NFPA-704 lables on older existing tanks that never required such labels ?
Anyone with experience in this area ?

The requirement is a general provision in both documents so it can be required at anytime on any existing or new installation.
