Hello dear everybody.
Can somebody help me to find info or give hints on what security distances should be considered from a fuel oil #2 tank AST atmospheric fixed roof tank (28m diameter) from a power transmission line. (No problem, if not in USA, any country guidance would be appreciated).

Thanks. By a google glance. What I´ve found is that the NFPA 30 is too general for this. And for the transmission lines it is supposed to be a responsibility of the power company to define the respective safety measures. So that´s what I´m supposed to be looking for.
