    if you multiply length x width x height = cubic feet and the just find a converter on line for cubic feet to gallons
    so its about 127000 gallons

    Don't forget to deduct for direct rainfall, freeboard and, if applicable, u must also make a deduction for soiled water from dirty yards. The above can really limit the capacity of open tanks
