0 01 (2) if the tank system is exposed to precipitation, the secondary containment system must have sufficient capacity, in addition to that required in subsection (j)(1) of this section, to contain run-on and infiltration from a 25-year, 24-hour rainfall event; (3) tank system secondary containment shall be provided with a leak detection system that is designed and operated so that it will detect either the failure of the primary and secondary containment structure or any release of hazardous waste or accumulated liquid in the secondary containment system within 24 hours,or at the earliest practicable time if the existing detection technology or site conditions will not allow detection of a release within 24 hours. (k) The tank system assessment shall Include all of the following information: (1) tank configuration (i.e., horizontal, vertical), material of construction, and gross capacity (in gallons); (2) design standard(s), if available, according to which the tank and ancillary equipment were or will be constructed and all of the following information: (A) material of construction; (B) material thickness and the method used to determine the thickness; (C) description of tank system piping (material, diameter); (D) description of any internal and external pumps; and (E) sketch or drawing of tank including dimensions. (3) documented age of the tank system (if tank was previously used), if available, (otherwise, an estimate of the age); (4) description and evaluation of any leak detection equipment; (5) description and evaluation of any corrosion protection equipment, devices, or material; (6) description and evaluation of any spill prevention or overfill equipment; (7) description and evaluation of secondary containment for the tank system (secondary containment must meet minimum standards as specified in subsections (j)(1) through (j)(3) of this section) including applicable secondary containment for ancillary equipment as required in subsection 66265.193(f); (8) hazardous characteristics of the waste(s) that have been or will be handled; (9) prior to placing a new tank system or component in use, an independent,qualified installation inspector or an independent, qualified, professional engineer, registered in California, either of whom is trained and experienced in the proper installation of tank systems, shall inspect the system or component for the presence of any of the following items and document in writing the results of the inspection: (A) weld cracks or breaks; (B) scrapes of protective coatings; (C) corrosion; (D) any structural damage or inadequate construction or installation such as cracks, punctures, damaged fittings. All discrepancies shall be documented in the assessment and remedied before the tank system is placed in use. (10) all new tanks and ancillary equipment shall be tested for tightness prior to being placed in use. The results of the test(s) shall be documented in this assessment.
