				  whether the facility is located within a 100-year floodplain. This
				  identification must indicate the source of data for such determination and
				  include a copy of the relevant Federal Emergency Management Administration
				  (FEMA) flood map, if used, or the calculations and maps used where an FEMA map
				  is not available. Information shall also be provided identifying the 100-year
				  flood plain and any other special flooding factors (e.g., wave action) which
				  must be considered in designing, constructing, operating, or maintaining the
				  facility to withstand washout from a 100-year flood. Owners and operators of
				  facilities located in the 100-year floodplain shall provide the following
				  information:
(A) Engineering analysis to
				  indicate the various hydrodynamic and hydrostatic forces expected to result at
				  the site as consequence of a 100-year flood.
(B) Structural or other engineering studies
				  showing the design of waste management units and flood protection devices
				  (e.g., floodwalls, dikes) at the facility and how these will prevent
				  washout.

				  constructed, and installed as follows:
(A)
				  The below-grade piping operates at less than atmospheric pressure (suction
				  piping);
(B) The below-grade piping
				  is sloped so that the contents of the pipe will drain back into the storage
				  tank if the suction is released (gravity-flow piping);
(C) No valves or pumps are installed below
				  grade in the suction line. Only one check valve is located directly below and
				  as close as practical to the suction pump; and
(D) An inspection method is provided which

				  tank when the tank is at least 65% full of product or at any product level if
				  the product-filled portion of the tank is tested under pressure equivalent to
				  that of a full tank. If any volumetric tank integrity test is conducted at a
				  product level lower than the overfill protection device set point, a test
				  meeting the requirements of subsection (b) must be used to test the ullage
				  portion of the tank.
(b) A
				  nonvolumetric tank integrity test shall be capable of detecting a release of
