<br />3 of 4 <br />Environmental Health Department <br /> <br />INSPECTIONS PRIOR TO FINAL APPROVAL <br />p) Verification of accurate vacuum zone programming, including monitored volumes. <br />q) Leak detector test, after first fuel delivery: Verify the device can detect a leak of 3 gallons per hour at <br />10 psi. Verify line volumes are appropriate for the make and model of the installed leak detectors. <br />r) Monitoring system functionality, after first fuel delivery: Functionality of the monitoring system, must <br />be verified to ensure it meets the requirements of CCR Title 23 and HSC Chapter 6.7. <br /> <br />7. The UST system must be installed in compliance with all of the following: <br />a. The installed UST system must be compliant with all applicable laws, regulations, and industry <br />standards. All installation and testing shall be in compliance with manufacturer’s instructions and <br />CCR 2635 and 2636. All monitoring system components shall be listed in the State Water <br />Resources Control Board’s Local Guidance Letter (LG) 113. <br />b. All tank pre-installation tests shall be performed according to tank manufacturer instructions. <br />c. All primary containment including any integral secondary containment system must be certified by <br />an independent testing organization and labeled as required by the organization (CCR 2631(b); <br />UL, ULC, ANSI, API, ASTM, etc. See CCR Table B for complete list.). Pursuant to Underwriters <br />Laboratories Inc. (UL) listing requirements, only those products bearing the UL mark will be <br />considered listed. Any part/product not marked with the UL label or another listed testing <br />organization will be rejected. <br />d. All secondary containment system which is not an integral part of the primary containment shall <br />be designed and constructed according to an engineering specification approved by a state <br />registered professional engineer or according to a nationally recognized industry code or <br />engineering standard, per CCR 2631(d). <br />e. All metal components in direct contact with the ground, such as flexible connectors, swing joints, <br />fittings, clamps, bands, and pumps, shall have adequate corrosion protection. <br />f. Install concrete of sufficient thickness over USTs and around sumps and dispensers, according to <br />the manufacturer’s written installation instructions and approved buoyancy calculations. <br />g. All tank top openings that are connected to the primary space of the UST must have secondary <br />containment, audible/visual alarm, and be vapor tight or terminate at grade. <br />h. Sumps, including UDCs, must be constructed in a manner to prevent vapors from entering the <br />backfill. <br />i. All secondary containment must be constructed to prevent water intrusion and must be <br />continuously monitored as required under HSC 25290.1. <br />j. All vacuum zone volumes must be accurately programmed and their volumes adequate for their <br />respective vacuum sensors. Chase piping must be VPH monitored and included in its respective <br />product piping vacuum monitoring zone. All sensors must be installed to detect a leak at the <br />earliest opportunity. <br />k. Overfill prevention shall satisfy CCR 2635(c)(1), pursuant to the permit application. No flow <br />restrictors (ball floats) shall be installed on vent lines, to comply with overfill prevention <br />requirements (Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, section 280.20(c)) <br />l. All installed UST components must be compatible with the materials being stored (including <br />biodiesel and E85). <br />m. Hazardous material or waste cannot be released, intentionally or unintentionally, to the <br />sewer/septic system, storm water system, or any other waters of the state. If a release occurs, it <br />will be considered illegal hazardous waste disposal and will be subject to enforcement. <br />n. No additional shut off valves should be installed between the monitored interstitial spaces <br />and their respective sensors.
