Plants removed from the source of supply shouldprovide fuel storage of sufficient size to insure against shut down. Inthe oil-burning plants of the duPont Co., 40 days storage is consideredsafe. This fuel comes from Mexico. In the designing of the OldHickory plant, 25 days supply was considered safe. This plant was lessthan 100 miles from the coal fields, and had priority rights over manyother kinds of plants. Under present conditions, the largest amount ofcoal that can be stored will not be found too much.
