Estimated Tank Size - some thoughts
Thanks to Whampoa for catching that, and to LA for providing figures on tank sizing. The E house looks to be about 20 ft high at the peak. I'm basing this on 7 steps up to the man door ( 4-5 ft off ground ), then 7ft for the man door, then a little more than that to the peak ( another 9 ft approx ). The tanks behind the E house are at least 4 ft higher, making them about 24 ft. / 750 barrels. Depending on where that photo was taken, could the tanks be 30 ft high / 1000 barrels ? All conjecture of course, but fun to ponder - what do you think ?

I'm estimating the heighth of the storage tanks to be 30'. This is based on the height of the gaurdrails surrounding the access platforms which should be a regulation 42" +/- 3". I also estimate each tower to 8+ "guard rail" units high. Therefore, aproximately 30' tall.
