Minimum dist from Oil Tank to Furnace?

I’m planning to put an oil tank in my basement to replace the outside tank. How far away does the tank need to be from the furnace/oil burner?

I do believe the rule of thumb is ten feet. However the local building codes will give you the right answer.
Just had a tank replaced when we did an addition, and had to move the location. The local city inspector wanted ten feet or a concrete block wall between them if they are any closer.
