ABSTRACT:
A storage tank system especially useful for storing liquid gasoline comprises a storage tank, a covered sleeve attached to the storage tank and encompassing a fill line, a drip sump compartment positioned on the cover of the sleeve and a fill line extending through the drip sump compartment and sleeve. The enclosed sleeve area is preferably monitored for leakage. The storage tank as well as structural accessories such as a dispensing line can have an outer containment wall. The system results in a storage facility which is not likely to lose its stored liquid to the environment due to slow leaks or a sudden large leak by providing total containment capability.
