Default Fuel tank drain bolt

Does anyone have a picture of where the fuel tank drain bolt is? I have 2000 civc, and need to drain the gas out it. My tank is sprayed with under coating and I have no idea where the bolt is located... I was told my car had the bolt to drain the tank, is this correct?

Thanks for your help.

your car shouldnt have that much undercoating. look for a big bulge-then clean it. that has to be the plug. some cars however do not have drain plugs. the plug will be on the lowest point of the tank--so it would drain
