So was not sure where to post this.
The question is double wall above ground generator belly tank, located in a building.
I am quite sure the primary tank vents are required to go to the outside.
BUT, is the Secondary tank required to be vented to the outside???????

5704.2.7.3.3 Vent Pipe Outlets
Vent pipe outlets for tanks storing Class I, II or IIIA liquids shall be located such that the vapors are released at a safe point outside of buildings and not less than 12 feet (3658 mm) above the finished ground level. Vapors shall be discharged upward or horizontally away from adjacent walls to assist in vapor dispersion. Vent outlets shall be located such that flammable vapors will not be trapped by eaves or other obstructions and shall be not less than 5 feet (1524 mm) from building openings or lot lines of properties that can be built upon. Vent outlets on atmospheric tanks storing Class IIIB liquids are allowed to discharge inside a building where the vent is a normally closed vent.
