Agreed.  Have worked with several of the breweries here in SD and they keep 
LOTS of malted barley and wheat on hand, nearly all of it in similar large 
sacks.

Subject: Soybean, corn, oat, & wheat storage

Warning! This email came from outside your company.

I am looking at a project that is storing soybean, corn, oat and wheat seeds in 
large polypropylene  bags (think large sand / rock bags) . The client has 
indicated that these are to be stored on floor, two high for a total storage 
height of less than 12'.  I know NFPA 13 does not address this, and FM seems to 
be silent also.
Based on the storage height, and free flowing nature of the product I am 
leaning towards an ordinary group 2 classification, but wanted to run it by the 
forumites to see if anyone has run across this in the past.
Any Takers?

Thanks,
Jamie Seidl

Is it storage only ,or, will they be bagging in the same area also? Thinking
