(OP)
Hello,

I have a two-parter:

(1) Does NFPA 13 (1999) Table 7.2.3.2.2: Discharge Criterial for Miscellaneous Storage and Storage 12ft or Less in Height, Commodity Classes I through IV include encapsulated storage that complies with the table?

(2) Referencing NFPA 30, can it be concluded that a Class II combustible liquid (oil for example) may be stored in quantities not exceeding 120 gallons (or 240 gallons if the building is sprinklered) within a control area that is seperated from ordinary combustibles by at least 8'?

Please let me know of any questions or comments.  I appreciate any responses.

Thanks.
