Sounds good.  I suggest that steps be taken to absolutely minimize the
possibility of flooding, which could pose the greatest threat to the
long term safety of below-ground storage.  There are both construction
concerns (how many of us have heard stories of machine room floods?)
and environmental concerns (100 year floods, etc).
