§ 33-266. Wall or dike for storage of petroleum products.

The premises used by gasoline, oil and petroleum storage tanks shall be surrounded by an unpierced fire wall or dike of such height and dimensions as to contain the maximum capacity required by current applicable Miami-Dade County codes. Where an abandoned rock pit is located in an IU-2 or IU-3 District, a permit may be issued to use such pits for oil storage tanks in which dikes may be omitted if the pit has the required capacity. All storage tanks and adjacent structures shall meet the requirements of the current applicable Miami-Dade County codes.

The foregoing paragraph requiring an unpierced fire wall or dike shall not apply to storage tanks containing liquefied petroleum, commonly known as bottled gas; such tanks may be erected without said wall or dike.
