Show him the URL, without comment, and ask if this will satisfy his requirements. He is a professional surveyor so one would believe he would have a recommendation.
Let's face it, if the tank room get close to 200F, you have other problems.
Just keep the lower valve shut.
I would consider installing an upper valve if it makes him happy but, my boat has a paper plaque in the engine room specifying, the boat was in compliance with all rules and regulations at the time of construction.
My surveyor asked about the engine room fan to blow out bilge fumes prior to starting the engine. He seemed satisfied when I told him, that fan is not required on a diesel boat.
