Op is not specific on what is in tank maybe water??

Does it depend on local requirements also??????
 
Chapter 3 classifies tanks as "U" occupancy.

So if a tank that is a "U"occ, ( assume it contains water) required to be protected with 1 hr construction when less than 5' to the property line? ...table 602, 2007 CBC

Thanks
