COVERED FLOATER IN JACKSONVILLE: STEUART PETROLEUM BULK STORAGE TANK FIRE
Editor’s note: This article originally appeared in the May/June 1993 issue of Industrial Fire Safety, a PennWell publication that we view as Fire Engineering's counterpart in the field of industrial sector fire protection and response. The vital lessons learned from this incident warrant a deviation from our standard editorial policy on reprints. These lessons must be shared with the fire service. Indeed, the firefight at the Steuart Petroleum tank farm will be remembered as a landmark response to what historically has been one of the most challenging fire problems ever faced.
