Each aboveground container shall be tested and inspected for integrity on a regular schedule and whenever repairs are made. The qualifications of personnel performing tests and inspections, frequency and type of testing and inspections that take into account container size, configuration, and design shall be determined in accordance with industry standards. Examples of these integrity tests include, but are not limited to: visual inspection, hydrostatic testing, radiographic testing, ultrasonic testing, acoustic emissions testing, or other systems of non-destructive testing. Comparison records and other records of inspections and tests must be maintained on site. Immediately update the SPCC Plan to include the integrity testing information and conduct the necessary testing and submit a copy of the test results to the EHD, or provide equivalence as allowed by CFR 112.7(a)(2). This is a Class II violation. 715 CFR 112.8(c)(8)(v) Failed to regularly test liquid level sensing devices to ensure proper operation. Liquid level sensing devices have not been tested regularly.
