responsibility requirements are phased -in for all underground storage tank systems <br />on or before October 26, 1990. <br />(b) If the owner and the operator are separate persons, either the owner or the operator <br />shall demonstrate compliance with subdivision (a). <br />(c) An owner may comply with this article by entering into an agreement with the <br />operator of the tank requiring the operator to demonstrate compliance with <br />subdivision (a). However, both the owner and the operator are in violation of <br />subdivision (a) if evidence of financial responsibility is not established and <br />maintained in accordance with this article. <br />4 Current financial responsibility documents were not on file with the EHD during <br />the August 27, 2009, routine UST inspection. <br />HSC 25298(a) Illegally abandoned UST system. No person shall abandon an <br />underground tank system or close or temporarily cease operating an underground tank <br />system, except as provided in this section. <br />4 Power to the UST monitoring panel was cut off on August 16, 2010, and the UST <br />system has not been operated or monitored since. <br />Title 23, CCR 2636(f)(2) Leak detector failed to detect a 3 -gallon per hour leak at <br />10 psi. Automatic line leak detectors shall be installed on underground pressurized <br />piping and shall be capable of detecting a 3 -gallon per hour leak rate at 10 psi within 1 <br />hour with a probability of detection of at least 95 percent and a probability of false alarm <br />no greater than 5 percent, and shall restrict or shut off the flow of product through the <br />piping when a leak is detected. <br />4 The 87 -octane leak detector failed when tested on August 27, 2009. <br />Title 23, CCR 2636(f)(4) Annual line tightness test not performed if positive <br />shutdown or fail safe not present. <br />(4) Monitoring shall be conducted on all underground pressurized piping with secondary <br />containment at least annually at a pressure designated by the equipment <br />manufacturer, provided that the method is capable of detecting a minimum release <br />equivalent to 0.1 gallon per hour defined at 150 percent of the normal operating <br />pressure of the product piping system at the test pressure with at least a 95 percent <br />probability of detection and not more than a 5 percent probability of false alarm. <br />(5) Continuous monitoring systems as described in subdivision (f)(1) satisfy the annual <br />tightness testing requirement of subdivision (f)(4) if both of the following conditions <br />are met: <br />(A) The monitoring system shuts down the pump or stops the flow of product at the <br />dispenser when a leak is detected in the under- dispenser containment. <br />(B) The monitoring system for all product piping other than that contained in the <br />under -dispenser containment is fail safe, and shuts down the pump when a leak <br />is detected. <br />4 The 87 -octane piping sump sensor failed to shut down the pump when tested <br />on August 27, 2009, and a line tightness test has not been performed. <br />Title 23, CCR 2637(e) Secondary containment test report not submitted within 30 <br />days. Underground storage tank owners and operators shall submit a copy of the test <br />report to the local agency within 30 days of the completion of the test. <br />4 December 23, 2008, secondary containment test report was submitted on <br />November 2, 2009, 11 months late. <br />.19 <br />
