This incident is a PERFECT example of how work within the space can CREATE its own HAZARDOUS ATMOSPHERE!  This tank was sitting in a lay-down yard and had been painted on the inside.  Not sure if it was a "new" tank or one that was being reworked, but nonetheless it was NOT attached to a process or anything for that matter at the time of this accident.  The vessel was being inspected at the time of the flash fire.
