(Shaw) is pleased to present this scope of <br /> work pertaining to proposed temporary underground storage tank (UST) closure activities at the <br /> above-mentioned Pacific Bell facility. There is a 10,000-gallon UST containing gasoline and a <br /> 5,000-gallon UST containing diesel at that site that Pacific Bell would like to take out of service <br /> pending future removal. The following scope of work details anticipated closure activities to be <br /> performed in order to meet the State of California Code of Regulations Title 23, Division 3, <br /> Chapter 16, Section 2671 UST temporary closure regulations and the County of Lake Health <br /> Department closure requirements. The permit application is included in Attachment 1. Copies <br /> of the State of California forms are included in Attachment 2. <br /> Scope of Work <br /> Prior to temporary closure activities, Pacific Bell will arrange for the removal of any fuels within <br /> the UST systems. Prior to performing any work, Shaw personnel and their subcontractors will <br /> review the health and safety plan (Attachment 3). The USTs and associated piping will then be <br /> triple-rinsed by a hazardous-certified subcontractor using a hot-pressure washer and detergent in <br /> order to remove any residual liquids, solids, or sludge. Following rinsing, the tanks will be <br /> visually inspected to ensure all liquids, solids, or sludge have been removed. The rinsate will <br /> then be transported off-site under a hazardous waste manifest to Romic Environmental <br /> Technologies Corporation in East Palo Alto, California for recycling. A copy of the rinsate <br /> manifest will be forwarded to the San Joaquin County Environmental Health upon receipt. <br /> Following rinsing activities,the atmosphere of the tanks will be inerted using dry ice at a rate of <br /> approximately 20 pounds per 1,000-gallons capacity. After approximately 15 minutes, the lower <br /> explosive limits (LEL) and oxygen concentrations will be measured. Once the LEL and oxygen <br /> concentrations are below 10%, the tanks access ports will be sealed using locking caps. The vent <br /> pipe will not be sealed per UST temporary closure requirements. The power will then be <br /> disconnected from the fuel dispensers and locked out. The existing tank monitoring system will <br /> remain operational. <br />
