No, this is just a packing shed out in the country. They pack and ship from this facility. This building is where the farmers bring the bins and they are stored here until they go into the packing and fumigation facility. The bins are +/- 44" square stored 4 to 5 high, which comes out to 21'-8 at 5 high.

As far as the bins go, I think you would have to look at it based on the percentages in 5.6.3.4.1. If there are any oils within the shells that could be combustible, this might change. Also, are they grinding the shells up? If so, is there a dust hazard? I am very familiar with nuts. I get called that frequently. Todd G.

If stored in plastic bins, would it still be considered a Class III commodity? The storage is general floor storage, no rack storage.
