" CGRS <br /> 3.8 Ancillary Equipment and Piping: <br /> Ancillary equipment is supported and protected against physical damage and stress due to settlement, vibration, <br /> expansion or contraction. Both inlet and discharge piping provide flexion in case of limited physical displacement. All <br /> ancillary equipment is located in the immediate area for inspection prior to use. <br /> Ancillary equipment includes:fuel pumps,fuel filters,fuel hoses, exhaust vents, and pressure gauges. <br /> 3.9 Overfill Protection and Alarms: <br /> The tank has a Scully gauge liquid level monitor(LLM). The gauge is in good working condition. No overfill alarms <br /> where observed and is Recommended to be installed. <br /> 3.10 Bonding and Grounding: <br /> Flammable liquid tanks are required to have proper grounding and should be equipped for bonding during filling. All oil <br /> ASTs are Recommended to have grounding. Trucks used to fill each tank have bonding reels. <br /> 3.11 Inspection Schedule Analysis: <br /> Monthly testing of the overfill monitors and observing for leaks shall be done by the owner.As multiple items critical <br /> were identified as needing repaired, the next round of formal 3rd party external inspections and observations is in 5 <br /> years (2027). <br /> 4.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> Limitations: This inspection was conducted in accordance with generally accepted industrial standards and <br /> represents site conditions during the time of the visit. The inspection did not include review of design drawings or weld <br /> inspection reports. If external UTs were performed, they are limited in that all internal pitting cannot be discovered.As <br /> such the limits of this report are as an overall survey of the tank and piping and this report does not serve as a <br /> guarantee of future system performance. Due care has been taken to verify and confirm the accuracy of this report. <br /> The inspection focuses on a failure mode which can be determined by visual and interstice inspections and may not <br /> identify modes of failure such as stress corrosion cracking, hydrogen embrittlement, and micro effects of metal flaws <br /> in steel manufacturing which would require a more extensive non-destructive and destructive testing.A safety factor is <br /> used to accommodate these unknowns and is typical in engineering analysis. <br /> 4.1 Recommendations: <br /> It is recommended that the following items be completed to increase the useful life of the tanks: <br /> 1. Install an Overfill Alarm <br /> 2. Install grounding <br /> 3. Install NFPA labels <br /> 5 <br />
