Certainly in Scotland, SEPA provides information on this: http://www.sepa.org.uk/r...oilstorage2006/index.htm

However, you probably aren't in Scotland, so you could try the equivalent organisation for the country you're in.

Then there are probably similar regs applying to Wales, I would imagine.

Thanks for responses. That is what I found as well:
Useful documents:
pannel_5_update_973546 -tree which shows what reg apply and when
ppg02feb04_126893 - Pollution Prevention Guidelines Above Ground Oil Storage Tanks: PPG2

ppg26feb04_124268 -Pollution Prevention Guidelines storage & handling of drums & intermediate bulk containers: PPG 26

Ass well you need to find out with your Local Council about storing oil inside the building as I was informed by Environment Agency helpline.

If anybody would need this documents just send me an email.
Thanks.
