Vapor removal fuel containment fuel tank

A vapor removal fuel containment fuel tank (10) for a vehicle includes a tank shell (12) having a wall formed from a primary fuel containment layer (30). The fuel tank (10) also includes a secondary fuel containment layer (34) disposed adjacent the primary fuel containment layer (30) to contain fuel therein. The fuel tank (10) further includes a vapor removal system (38) extending through the primary fuel containment layer (30) to allow fuel vapors that build up between the primary fuel containment layer (30) and secondary fuel containment layer (34) to be removed from the fuel tank (10).
