It does get confusing - there is my insurance
co, the fuel supplier & his insurance co, and
the epa. Each now has a say in this. And,
sometimes with good reason. :) My fuel coop sent out a long list of regulations
for LP tanks last year - they won't fill if it ran
empty until the tank is tested & you need to be
there for the test, they won't fill tanks on
wheels, they need the building setback,
proper ports & no goofiness, tanks need to be
inspected every so often - heck, I don't even
have LP & I got the letter! :) They implied, both in writing & at coop
meeting, that similar restrictions are coming
to bulk fuel tanks - sooner rather than later.
They said it is both EPA & their insurance co, if
they fill something out of compliance, will cost
them $$$$. Now, some of my friends are having no
problem at all getting mobile LP tanks filled, or
empty ones, and haven't heard anything about
bulk fuel tank issues either. But, I think it is coming.... As long as the guy is starting out, he might as
well at least get the setback from buildings, oh
yea, a WELL is a real big problem if you are
too close, my county would come after you for
that! Things like that to watch out for. As
someone else said, and fuel spills, you'll
need to clean up when you sell the property.
MN just passed a law that you are responsible
for any hidden problems when you sell
property - no more 'as is, where is'. Insurance & liability laws will be the ruin of this
country, but that's another issue.... --->Paul

A Lifetime of David Brown Tractors - by Samuel Kennedy. I was born in 1950 and reared on my family�s 100 acre farm. It was a fairly typical Northern Ireland farm where the main enterprise was dairying but some pigs, poultry and sheep were also kept. Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
