A. GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION
1. API 653 Inspection
This project will perform API 653 inspections of various tanks at facilities throughout the
United States. Additional consideration is given to federal, state, and local regulations, as well as applicable military criteria and general industry standards. An API Standard 653 In‐
Service inspection was performed for Tank 10 (Facility 3036).
2. Site Information
On June 06, 2023, InterSpec, LLC performed an API 653 In‐Service inspection of Tank 10
(Facility 3036), located at Joint Base Andrews, Camp Springs, MD.
B. TANK INSPECTION COMMENTS
1. Tank Construction
Tank 10 is a nominal 10,000 BBLS. (500,000 gal.), 42’ 6” diameter by 38’ 10” tall, F‐24 Jet‐A, aboveground field erected vertical storage tank. The tank was constructed in 1960. The tank was constructed to API‐12C standards.
2. Secondary Containment
40 CFR 112.7(c) states that the entire secondary containment system, “including walls and floor, must be capable of containing oil and must be constructed so that any discharge from a primary containment system ... will not escape containment before cleanup occurs.” 40
CFR 112.8(c)(2) and 40 CFR 112.12(c)(2) state that diked areas must be “sufficiently impervious to contain oil.” The purpose of the secondary containment requirement is to prevent discharges, as described in 40 CFR 112.1(b); therefore, effective secondary containment methods must be able to contain oil until the oil is cleaned up. The secondary containment area consists of an uncoated concrete floor and concrete sloped walls. The containment is equipped with a 36” X 24” sump located in the northwest corner. An informal containment evaluation was conducted. The containment appears to be of sufficient size to contain a total tank loss per UFC 3‐460‐01 Section 8‐14.2.1, “The containment area needs to have sufficient capacity to contain the tank contents plus one foot of freeboard. If the containment has the capacity to contain the tank contents plus one foot of freeboard, the containment area is sufficient.” The secondary containment area appears to be properly sloped to drain water away from the tank in accordance with NFPA
30.
3. Tank Foundation
The tank rests on a concrete ringwall. The foundation is equipped with 4 tell‐tale drains used for leak detection. A visual evaluation of the ringwall was conducted during the inspection for broken concrete, spalling, cracks, and vegetation against the bottom of the tank. The tank bottom‐to‐ringwall sealant was inspected with limited areas of damage found.
4. Tank Bottom
The interior bottom was not evaluated. The bottom is equipped with an impressed current cathodic protection system. The secondary tank bottom, installed in 2004, is located up 13‐ inches up from the original bottom.
5. Tank Shell
The shell is constructed from carbon steel of unknown material specification. The shell is a cylindrical design, butt‐welded together, consisting of six (6) courses. The shell exterior has a thin film urethane covered epoxy coating system. The coating was inspected for disbonding, adhesion, deterioration, and discoloration; it is in satisfactory condition. The tank appears to be stable and does not appear to be in danger of overturning or buckling due to high winds or seismic conditions. The shell was evaluated for remaining metal thickness utilizing ultrasonic technology. Thickness measurements are listed in the Engineering Data section in Appendix
B. A service life evaluation performed shows the shell with > 30 years of remaining life under current conditions. The engineering calculations, as per API‐653, for the service life evaluation are shown in Appendix A under "Service Life Evaluation.” Based on data collected during this inspection, the tank shell is structurally sound.
6. Tank Floating Roof
The tank is equipped with a double deck floating roof with pontoons. The floating roof has shoe type perimeter roof seals and opening gaskets that were visually inspected, due to safety reasons, from the top of the rolling ladder. No trace of fuel vapors was encountered during the visual inspection. The floating roof appears to be in satisfactory condition.
7. Tank Fixed Roof
The fixed roof is a self‐supported corrugated shed type steel roof. The shed is fastened to the top of the shell by bolts and screening material to a width of 6‐inches provided around the entire periphery of the roof.

1. Shell Service Life Evaluation
2. Shell Settlement Evaluation
Shell Service Life Evaluation
Where:
t min = minimum acceptable shell thickness for each course, in inches; however, t min shall not be less than 0.1 inch for any tank course.
t nom = nominal shell thickness, in inches.
t act = current measured shell thickness, excluding pits and corrosion, in inches.
t prev = previous measured shell thickness, excluding pits and corrosion or t nom , in inches.
D = nominal diameter of the tank, in feet.
H = height from the bottom of the shell course under considerations to the established maximum liquid level, in feet.
H c = calculated safe fill height, in feet, for the current product.
G = specific gravity of the contents.
Y = specified minimum yield strength of the plate; use 30,000 pounds per square inch if not known (N/A for riveted tanks).
T = smaller of the specified minimum tensile strength of the plate or 80,000 pounds per square inch; use 55,000 psi if not known (N/A for riveted tanks).
S = The maximum allowable stress, in pounds per square inch. For welded tanks, use the smaller of 0.80Y or 0.429T for the bottom and the second course or the smaller of 0.88Y or 0.472T for all other courses. For riveted tanks, use S =21,000 psi. For elevated temperatures above
200OF, the maximum allowable stress shall be the smaller of 2/3 the minimum yield strength multiplied by the M-factor (M) of API Standard 650 Appendix M or the product design stress value listed in Table M-1a or M-1b of API Standard 650.
E = original joint efficiency for the tank. Use Table 4-2 from API Standard 653 if original E is unknown; E =1.0 when evaluating the retirement thickness in a corroded plate, when away from welds or joints by at least the greater of one inch or twice the plate thickness. For riveted tanks, use E =1.0 for shell plates when greater than 6 inches from rivets; use the value of E from API Standard 653 Table 4-3 when within 6 inches of rivets.
L r = remaining life of the shell, in years.
C r = shell corrosion rate, in inches per year.
I ut = inspection interval for the next ultrasonic inspection, in years (not to exceed 15 years).
I v = inspection interval for the next visual external inspection, in years (not to exceed 5 years).
Y = years between the previous measured shell thickness (t prev ) and the current measured shell thickness (t act ), in years.
The maximum inspection intervals are determined by the most restrictive shell course in regard to the remaining life and the corrosion rate calculations for each shell course using the following formulas:
tmin =
2.6(H−1)DG
SE
Lr = tact − tmin
Cr Cr = tprev − tact Y Iut = tact − tmin 2Cr
