The definition of a hazardous material includes, but is not limited to, flammable liquids, petroleum products, oils, corrosive materials, solvents, and other chemicals.

B. Process. The type of hazardous material being stored will determine the type of tank construction required, and possibly, will determine where the tank can be located.
