Our dairy waste is stored in an above ground, glass-fused steel tank that measures 62 feet in diameter and 14 feet tall.  It can hold approximately 300,000 gallons of waste, which would take about 120 days to produce on our farm.  This environmentally-friendly system was designed with several safeguards, including the leak detection monitoring pipe you see in front of the tank.
