Section 2104 - Sealing of Tanks(a) At the time of taking the high gauge of a tank the inspector shall seal or lock all inlet lines to the tank and any seals on the tank outlet line shall be removed.(b) At the time of taking the low gauge of a tank the inspector shall seal or lock all outlet lines from the tank and any seals on the inlet line shall be removed.(c) In the event any such state tank seal is removed, except by those authorized to do so, payments shall be made to the State for the run as estimated by the inspector at the rate then prevailing for oil of the highest gravity run from the tank during the previous 30 days.(d) Under no circumstances shall any person other than the inspector remove, break, or alter, any seal or lock installed by the State unless the consent of the inspector in charge of the field is first obtained. Such consent must be confirmed by the inspector in writing, otherwise the procedure specified in Section 2104(c) will govern. Where operations require, seals on bleeder valves and meter by-passes may be removed on the condition that such removal and the time thereof are reported on the applicable daily operating reports. Failure to report such removal may result in the recession of permission to the operator to remove seals from bleeder valves and meter by-passes under any operating conditions.Cal. Code Regs.
