In-Service AST Inspection Report <br /> Formal External Inspection of Tank 2 <br /> CDCR—NCYCC <br /> Page 3 <br /> 1.7. The Tank was located on a concrete foundation and equipped with saddle/pad plate <br /> supports. The joints between the supports, pad plates, and the Tank were completely <br /> welded together limiting moisture from accumulating in between layers.The supports,pad <br /> plates, and welds appeared to be in good condition. The Tank appeared to be anchored to <br /> the foundation. <br /> 1.8. Secondary containment was provided by the double-wall design of the Tank. Leaks from <br /> the primary(inner)tank would be captured by the secondary(outer)tank. Spill prevention <br /> is achieved using an overfill prevention shutoff valve. See Section 1.9.5 for more <br /> information about overfill prevention. The Tank was elevated on a concrete pad providing <br /> a suitable Continuous Release Detection Method(CRDM). <br /> 1.9. Ancillary equipment was inspected for condition and operability. <br /> 1.9.1. Piping,piping supports,and piping connections were inspected for visible signs of <br /> leakage or stress such as severe corrosion, rusted bolted connections, or other <br /> severe degradation where visible. The configuration of the Tank's top ports is <br /> shown in Photo 4 and Photo 5. Fill and withdrawal connections were located on <br /> the top of the Tank. Product staining around on the top of the Tank was observed <br /> by the inspector and shown in Photo 6. The source appeared to be the external <br /> components of the submersible pump. Recent repairs underway were evident and <br /> documentation of repairs dated April 7,2021,were provided to the inspector.Parts <br /> were on order and repairs were not completed at the time of inspection. Several <br /> areas of piping with coating failure were observed. Condor recommends removal <br /> of the damaged coating and external corrosion from the piping followed by the <br /> application of a protective coating. <br /> 1.9.2. UL 2085 venting requirements come from UL 142. Per requirements in UL 142, <br /> normal venting is to be provided with a diameter no smaller than the maximum <br /> diameter of the system piping.Emergency venting is to be provided for the primary <br /> tank and the secondary tank(annular space). The emergency vents must either be <br /> a functional long bolt manway or meet the required standard cubic feet per hour <br /> (SCFH) capacity based on 75 percent of the wetted area of the horizontal Tank. <br /> The following are Tank venting observations: <br /> • The inspector observed a Husky Corporation—Model 5885,pressure/vacuum <br /> 2-inch diameter normal/operational vent installed on the Tank. The vent was <br /> equipped with a serial number and removal date of May 2018 (Photo 7). <br /> Maximum diameter of the fill and withdrawal piping was 4 inches thus the <br /> required minimum diameter of the normal vent is also 4 inches. Condor <br /> recommends installation of an operational vent and pipe with a minimum <br /> diameter of 4 inches.Note that primary tank ports with the minimum diameter <br /> required for the operational vent, were available at the time of inspection but <br /> may require reconfiguration of current equipment(i.e. switch locations of the <br /> liquid level gauge and operational vent). <br /> • The inspector observed two ERVs. The primary tank ERV was a 10-inch <br /> diameter Morrison Brothers model 244 rated for 504,818 SCFH at 2.5 pounds <br /> per square inch (psi). The ERV is shown in Photo 8. This unit exceeds the <br /> manufacturer minimum requirements of 312,000 SCFH. Emergency venting <br /> capacity is sufficient for the Tank's primary compartment. Manufacturer <br /> minimum venting requirements for the secondary tank was 354,000 SCFH.The <br /> secondary tank ERV was a 10-inch diameter Morrison Brothers Fig 244 vent <br /> rated for 462,000 SCFH at 2.5 psi. The secondary tank ERV meets <br /> Iy <br /> �� CONDOR <br />
