22 August 2011 <br /> AGE-NC Project No. 11-1934 <br /> Page 4 of 6 <br /> secondary compartments are typically manufactured [22CCR§66264.193(e)(3)] from A36 <br /> steel with gauge and thickness discussed in Section 2.1.3. The approximate rectangular <br /> AST width, length and height are 33-inch, 107 '/2-inch and 39-inch, respectively. The AST <br /> ancillary equipment is discussed in Section 2.1.4. <br /> 3.2. VISUAL INSPECTION <br /> The visual inspection [22CCR§66264.193(e)(2)] of the AST was conducted by an AGE <br /> representative on 22 June 2011 . The AST exterior surface did not reveal signs of leaks, <br /> corrosion, weld cracks; weld breaks or scrapes in coating which may cause a release from <br /> the AST system. A visual assessment summary is included as Table 3 <br /> 4.0. HYDROSTATIC TEST <br /> The hydrostatic test[22CCR§66265.192(k)(10)] is conducted to verify the AST primary and <br /> secondary shell will not leak. The test was conducted by representatives of AGE on 22 <br /> June 2011. Test results are provided in Table 4. <br /> 4.1 . HYDROSTATIC TEST PROCEDURE <br /> The six AST primary and secondary compartment ports are temporarily sealed to maintain <br /> an inner constant pressure. A regulator with pressure valve was attached to one opening <br /> of the primary and secondary AST compartment. Air pressure was applied with a <br /> compressor ranging between approximately 2.5 pounds per square inch (psi)and 3 psi;first <br /> to the primary and then to the secondary. The approximate AST ports and respective <br /> locations are shown on Figure 3. <br /> 4.2. HYDROSTATIC TEST RESULTS <br /> The hydrostatic test results indicated both the primary and secondary AST shells did not <br /> leak at the time of the test. Pressure readings were collected every fifteen minutes for one <br /> hour from the primary. Testing of the secondary followed successful results from the <br /> primary tank test. No fluctuation in pressure was recorded during the test. Test results are <br /> provided in Table 4. <br /> Advanced GeoEncironmental,Inc. <br />
