D. Comments and Recommendations: (Relating to Section B — Inventory of Equipment Inspected/Tested/Certified, and Section C - Results of Testing/Inspection/Servicing.) 11 ATG probe and liquid sensor wiring electrical connections are not properly sealed. Seal all electrical connections per manufacturer's` specifications. 21 The positive pump shutdown control relays located in the console are not "Fail safe". In the event a leak is detected the console power could be shut off allowing pump operation to resume in a leak alarm condition. In the event of console failure or disconnection, pump operation would resume in a leak alarm condition. The equipment manufacturer has stated that the OMNTEC OEL8000 system does not have "fail safe" control and cannot be modified to provide it. Due to the lack of "fail safe" positive pump shutdown, at least the following will be required: a. SB989 secondary containment testing will require the piping sumps and dispenser containment pans to be tested in a 100% full condition, reduced level testing is only acceptable for sumps with "fail safe" positive pump shutdown. b. Pressurized product line leak detectors must be present, operable, and certified annually. c. The pressurized product delivery lines must be precision tested annually. `3) Monitoring system wiring is improper because: a. Low voltage probe and sensor wiring has been installed within a high voltage junctions box. b. Console does not have a "designated" AC power supply from the electrical panel. The console power supply shares the same circuit breaker as the turbine and dispenser control power. c. Probe and sensor wiring consists of two types of cable which are spliced within a high voltage junction box. The cables from the console to the junction box are of an incorrect type. Gable runs from the console to the probes and sensors must be made by a continuous, unspliced, cable of a type specified by the manufacturer. d. Upon arrival, the monitoring system was found improperly configured due to faulty wiring. The supreme sump liquid sensor shut down the regular pump, and the regular sump liquid sensor was not inoperable. After troubleshooting this condition, we found and corrected short-circuited sensor wiring, incorrect console programming, and incorrect pump relay control wiring. e. It appears that the monitoring system was either not installed according to manufacturer's specifications or its has been tampered with since it was initially installed. According to State law, UST monitoring systems must be installed and configured by a manufacturer certified technician in full accordance with manufacturer's specifications. We recommend that the entire wiring system be replaced and recertified in accordance with manufacturer's specifications. E. In -Tank Gauging & SIR Equipment: ® Tank gauging is used only for inventory control. ❑ No tank gauging or SIR equipment is installed ❑ Tank;gauging/SIR equipment is testing the primary container in a double walled tank system. _130 Tank gauging/SIR equipment WAS NOT tested/inspected. Com Tete the following checklist only if in -tank gauging a ui ment is used to perform leak detection monitoring: ❑ Yes ❑ No* Was all accessible wiring (high voltage, low voltage, communication, relay controls, etc.) inspected for proper type, entry, termination, sealing, and grounding in accordance with manufacturer's specifications? ❑ Yes ❑ No* Were all gauging probes visually inspected and found or made clean and free from moisture, damage, defects, rust, scale, debris, and residue which could adversely effect proper operation/performance? (Magnetrostrictive probe shafts and floats should cleaned„ float magnets free of rust, and checked for free movement. Probe cable connectors should befree o corrosion and ro erl connected to field wiring) ❑ Yes ❑ No* Was accuracy of system product level readings tested? (Account for probe offset, tank tilt/slope, etc) ❑ Yes ❑ No* Was accuracy of system water level readings tested? (Account for probe offset, tank tilt/slope, etc) ❑ Yes ❑ No* Were all probes reinstalled properly and free from obstruction that could impair proper operation? ❑ Yes ❑ No* Were all: items on the equipment manufacturer's maintenance checklist completed? ❑ Yes ❑ No* Are all probes & floats compatible with the stored product and of proper size for Certified testing? ® Yes ❑ No* Were monitor console and probes properly installed and operating per manufacturer's specifications? ❑ Yes ❑ No* Is the tank gauging equipment configured and programmed in accordance with LG -113 (leak rate, product type, tank capacity, min. and max. test volume, waiting time, test duration, throughput, manifolding, etc.)? What is leak detection setup? (Check all that apply) Leak rate: ❑ 0.05 g.p.h.; ❑ 0.1 g.p.h.; ❑ 0.2 g.p.h. Test Type: ❑ Continuous (CSLD, SCALD, etc.); ❑ Manual periodic; ❑ Automatic periodic Test Frequency: ❑ Continuous; ❑ Daily; ❑ Weekly; ❑ Monthly; ❑ Annually; ❑ Other Test Duration: ❑ Continuous; ❑ hrs.;, ❑ Automatically determined by system. ❑ Yes* ❑ No Were there any signs of equipment tampering? * In the Section G below, describe deficiencies and how and when these deficiencies were or will be corrected.
