b.The empty space left in the tank so liquid can expand
c.A leak detected at the dome cover
d.The total weight of the cargo

Outage is the space you must leave in a tank because liquids expand as they warm up. Different liquids expand by different amounts and therefore require different amounts of outage. You must never load a tank totally full or the expanding liquid could rupture the tank.
