The following is an itemized list of aboveground petroleum storage act violations that have not been addressed for CHEVRON PRODUCTS COMPANY #1001621 as of May 06, 2017. Open violations from January 14, 2016 inspection Violation #706 - Failed to provide and maintain adequate secondary containment. Multiple cracks were found in the concrete secondary containment dike along the northern part of the facility north of the fire access road. It appears that some have been attempted on the cracks, but not all the cracks have evidence of repair attempts being conducted. It appears the local wildlife have also been burrowing into the dirt below the concrete secondary containment dike. Settling of the soil at the base of the northern section of secondary containment dike was observed on the facility side of the concrete secondary containment dike. It appears that the integrity of the concrete secondary containment dike is compromised and may no longer be adequate to contain the contents of the tank plus sufficient freeboard to contain precipitation. All bulk storage tanks must be provided with a secondary means of containment for the entire capacity of the tank and sufficient freeboard to contain precipitation. Immediately provide sufficient secondary containment for this and all other tanks at this facility.

The following was noted at the time of inspection.- 1) nspection:1) No integrity testing (external or internal) documentation was available for the T-25 Tank, which was installed in 2005. 2) Only an 'but of service" integrity testing documentation was available for the T-131 Tank, this tank was operational at the time of this inspection. 3) Action items (for the needed repairs) were identified in the integrity testing report for the T-23 Tank (dated 4-2-12) and for the T-137 Tank (dated 10-17-2012), no follow up integrity testing documentation was available for this tank, and no records, indicating that the required repairs were completed, were available for review at the time of inspection. Each aboveground container shall be tested and inspected for integrity on a regular schedule and whenever repairs are made.
