EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND SUITABILITY FOR CONTINUED SERVICE

Austin Brockenbrough & Associates, LLP (Brockenbrough) was retained by Omaha District USACE under Contract No. W9128F-17-D-0017 Delivery Order W9128F19F0049 to perform SPCC Mandated AST/UST Inspections at various locations. As required by this task, Brockenbrough executed a tank inspection site visit to Langley Air Force Base, Hampton, Virginia. An API 653 In-service (visual external) Inspection was conducted for Facility No.

2186, locally known as Tank 5, on September 10, 2019. This inspection was performed in accordance with API Standard 653, “Tank Inspection, Repair, Alteration, and Reconstruction,” and the referenced contract. Prologue, Inc. was retained by Austin Brockenbrough to perform a 3-D laser scanning survey of the tank to inspect for tank foundation settlement, out-of-roundness, and deformations. All observations made during this in-service (visual external) inspection were made from the exterior of the tank.

Facility 2186 is a 52-foot diameter by 38-foot and 8-inch tall, single wall, vertical, field-erected tank with a nominal storage capacity of 15,000 barrels of Jet A (F-24). The reconstructed manufacturer’s nameplate and repair organization nameplate is available. The tank was originally built in 1958 by an unknown manufacturer and reconstructed in 2000 by Superior Industrial Maintenance. Repairs listed on the repair organization nameplate indicate repairs performed in 2016 included installing a 4-inch water probe well, and 8-inch manual and ATG gauge wells. Details of tank construction and appurtenances are included in the Tank Information Table on page 6 and in Section ‘B’.

This tank was found to be in generally good condition, fully serviceable, with no mandatory repairs noted. If the current standard of care is maintained, this tank is suitable for continued service. Additional noted deficiencies are discussed in more detail in Section ‘C’ and should be addressed in a timely manner. Photographs of the tank are included in Appendix ‘C’.

The next API Standard 653 In-service (visual external) Inspection should be performed by September 2024. The next ultrasonic thickness inspection of the shell should be performed by September 2034. Based on the state requirements (9VAC25-91 Section 130 C.2), an internal (out-of-service) inspection should be performed by March 2025. The inspection should include an examination of the tank bottom by magnetic flux leakage (MFL or MFE) technology and a thorough code compliance evaluation.

A. GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION

1. API 653 Inspection

a. This project will perform API 653 and STI SP001 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. For Facility 2186 an API Standard 653 In-service (External) Inspection was performed, which included a shell settlement survey and a shell UT inspection. In addition, a survey was performed to inspect for plumbness, roundness, peaking, and banding was performed.

2. Site Information On September 10, 2019 Brockenbrough performed API 653 In-Service (External) Inspection of Facility 2186 (Tank 5) located at Langley Air Force Base, Virginia. Langley Air Force Base is the home of the United States Air Force's 633d Air Base Wing (633 ABW), 1st Fighter Wing (1 FW) and the 480th Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance Wing (480 ISRW). It also hosts the Global Cyberspace Integration Center field operating agency, the 192D Fighter Wing of the Virginia Air National Guard and Headquarters Air Combat Command (ACC).

3. Previous Inspection and Repairs The previous inspection report indicates that an out-of-service (internal) inspection was performed in 2015. The repair nameplate indicates that in 2016 two 8-inch and one 4-inch stilling wells were added and existing nozzles were modified.

4. Future Projects Facility personnel report there are currently no projects scheduled for execution in the future that affect the operation of the tank. Personnel indicated that there is a major project in the works to repair the containment area.

B. TANK INSPECTION COMMENTS

1. Tank Construction Tank Facility 2186 is an aboveground, vertical, storage tank, measuring 52 feet in diameter and 38 feet and 8 inches tall with a nominal capacity of approximately 492,150 gallons. Although the tank manufacturer’s nameplate is missing, the reconstruction nameplate indicates the tank was constructed in 1958.

2. Tank Foundation The perimeter of the bottom rests on a concrete ring wall that is flush with grade. The foundation was visually evaluated during the inspection for broken concrete, spalling, cracks, and vegetation against the bottom of the tank. Small hairline cracks throughout the ring wall were observed, with a majority of the cracks having been filled with grout. A shell settlement survey was performed during the inspection in accordance with Appendix ‘B’ of API Standard 653. The shell settlement evaluation indicates the settlement of the bottom of the shell and perimeter of the tank bottom is acceptable.

3. Tank Bottom Per previous inspection reports, the tank has a 5/16-in lap-welded double bottom and butt-welded annular plate. The new bottom was installed in 2000.

4. Tank Roof The tank roof is a geodesic dome roof. It is constructed out of aluminum support members and aluminum panels. The dome roof structure appears to be in good condition with no visible signs of damage. Entry to the internal ladder is gained through a 2-foot by 4-foot rectangular roof hatch.

5. Tank Shell The vertical and cylindrical shell consists of six (6) butt-welded courses. The ultrasonic thickness measurements of the shell and calculations included in Appendix ‘A’ indicate the shell has more than 30 years of remaining life. API 653 recommends ultrasonic thickness measurements of the shell be taken at least every 15 years.

b. Plumbness, Roundness, Peaking, and Banding The exterior of the shell was visually inspected and evaluated for plumbness, roundness, peaking and banding.

1) API 650, paragraph 7.5.2 allows a maximum out-of-plumb of the top of a new tank shell, relative to the bottom of the shell, of 1/200 of the height of the shell, a difference of 2-5/16 inches for this 38-foot and 8-inch tall tank. The maximum measured out-of-plumbness was 2-1/16 inches.

The out-of-plumbness of the shell is within that allowable tolerance required by API 650.

2) The shape of the shell appears to slightly exceed the allowable API 650 tolerance of plus or minus 3/4-inch of a new tank shell radius. Minor localized shell distortions were noted. The tank bottom and roof should restrain the shell from deflection near the bottom and near the top. It would suggest the tank was built slightly out-of-round because there did not appear to be any significant distortion of the shell. The out-of-roundness does not appear to be a detriment to the structural integrity of the tank, no action is required or recommended at this time.

3) While some minor peaking and banding of the butt-welded shell seams was observed, the peaking-and-banding appeared to be within limits allowed by API 650. The area with the most distortion observed was located at the weld seams for the northwest manhole insert plate. It appears to be resulting from improper heat treatment during the installation process.

6. Tank Appurtenances

a. Gauging The tank’s Honeywell Enraf ATG is installed through an 8-inch fully slotted aluminum gauge well.

The manual gauge well/sample hatch was unlocked and was inspected. The tank also has a Varec tape level gauge. The tape level gauge did not appear to be consistent with the ATG.

b. Level Alarms The tank has shell mounted (independent) high, high-high, low, and low-low level alarms. The tank also has redundant ATG alarms.

c. Stairs and Platforms The tank’s geodesic dome roof is accessible by a circumferential stairway mounted on the shell of the tank. The circumferential stairway step rise is generally 8-1/2 inches continuously from ground level to the step just below the roof landing. It appears that at some time in the past the stair treads were modified with grating. The width of the stair steps is generally 27-1/2 inches.

OSHA requires the stairway handrail height to be between 30 and 34 inches measured from the nose of the steps. The measured height of the stairway handrail is 33 inches. There were areas of localized corrosion observed at the attachment welds of the stair to tank interface. The corrosion was mainly present at the areas where the attachment is not fully seal welded.

d. Grounding and Bonding The tank’s two (2) grounding cables are exothermic welded to shell mounted steel grounding lugs and appeared to be in good condition.

7. Tank Coating The tank’s coatings were evaluated for deterioration. The exterior of the shell and roof show no sign of significant deterioration.

8. Tank Piping System Facility 2186 (Tank 5) is a bulk tank. Fuel is primarily received from barge off-load with backup receipt from truck off-load stations located adjacent to the pumphouse. Fuel is issued to truck fillstands also located adjacent to the pumphouse. The low suction is connected to the main suction. All of the fuel system piping is aboveground and coated carbon steel. There appeared to be adequate thermal relief throughout the piping system.

9. Fire Protection System There are no fire hydrants within 300 feet of the tank.

10. Secondary Containment Secondary containment consists of an earthen berm with shotcrete cover with a flexible membrane liner system on the containment floor which is covered in gravel. The secondary containment was evaluated during the inspection. Due to the presence of gravel in the dike area, a thorough visual inspection of the dike area could not be conducted. The secondary containment was analyzed by Prologue Systems, LLC by using the 3D laser scanning survey. By using the data and subtracting out the geometry of the tank, they determined that the secondary containment has a total capacity of approximately 904,440 gallons. The containment is of sufficient size to contain a total tank loss plus an additional foot of freeboard. The shotcrete berms have begun to show signs of deterioration, primarily on the exterior side of the berm. Significant cracks and spalling were observed. Base personnel mentioned that there is a project in place to repair the shotcrete.

11. Cathodic Protection Impressed current cathodic protection anodes are installed in the sand between the FML liner and the tank bottom. The system is combined with the other five tanks in the area and there is one common rectifier. The cathodic system was reported to be properly working.

C. FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Tank Facility 2186 was found to be in generally good condition. The tank is fully serviceable, with no mandatory deficiencies that would require immediate removal of the tank from service. However, there were a few minor items observed that could be addressed to reduce long term maintenance, improve operability, and more clearly comply with federal, state, and local regulations or military criteria.

1. MANDATORY REPAIRS per API 653, NFPA, or CFRs Mandatory repairs represent items that require immediate attention in order to prevent imminent risk to system operators, equipment, or the adjacent environment. The tank would have to be taken out-of-service to complete these repairs. No Mandatory Repairs are required to be performed.

2. SHORT TERM RECOMMENDATIONS

REQUIRED REPAIRS to Fully Comply with API 653, UFC 3-460-01, or AW 78-24-27 Standards Short- Term Repairs that directly relate to the long-term preservation of the asset. Short-term repairs represent items that should be addressed in a timely manner in order to prevent future potential risks to system operators, equipment integrity, or the adjacent environment. These items may be required by federal, state and local codes or by military criteria.

a. Recalibrate Autogauge OBSERVATION: The Varec autogauge is inconsistent with the Enraf ATG by more than the allowable criteria.

REFERENCE: UFC 3-460-03 Section 8-9.8.1.1 requires mechanically operated tape gauges to be checked regularly in order to verify accuracy. If the tape is not accurate, UFC 3-460-03 requires calibration. API 653 inspection checklist limits the variation to a maximum of 2 inches.

RECOMMENDATION: Calibrate autogauge in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations.

Verify calibration against Enraf ATG and sticking the tank.

3. LONG-TERM RECOMMENDATIONS

RECOMMENDED REPAIRS as Part of Regular Maintenance Long-term Repairs that directly relate to repair/upgrade of an asset to bring it up to the current standard from the standard at time of construction. Long-term Repairs represent items that should be addressed in a timely manner in order to prevent future potential risks to system operators, equipment integrity, or the adjacent environment.

a. Repair Concrete OBSERVATION: There are radial hairline cracks in the top of the ring wall foundation above the leak detection telltale holes. If precipitation enters the foundation through the cracks, the water could promote corrosion of the reinforcing steel in the concrete, especially if it expanded upon freezing.

Deterioration of the foundation could lead to inadequate support for the tank and loss of secondary containment. There is also a 1-sq ft section of the concrete that has spalling.

REFERENCE: API 650 paragraph 5.3.1 and API 653 Appendix ‘B’ require foundations to provide adequate support. NFPA 30 paragraph 22.11.2.4 and 40 CFR 112.7(c)(1) require secondary containment to be liquid tight.

RECOMMENDATION: Seal approximately 2 linear feet of cracks in the tank foundation ring wall.

Repair 1-sq ft of spalling.

b. Provide Landing Drain OBSERVATION: The intermediate landing on the circumferential stair is convex, resulting in standing water. The standing water will eventually result in coating failure and corrosion of the metal.

REFERENCE: UFC 3-460-03 requires stairs, platforms, etc. to be inspected for any signs of corrosion, and the corrosion repaired.

RECOMMENDATION: Drill a 1/4-inch hole in the center of the stain to result in a drainage spot. After the repair is completed, perform spot repairs on the coating.

c. Provide Seal Welds OBSERVATION: Some of the attachment welds for the tank stairs are not fully seal welded. This has resulted in localized minor corrosion.

REFERENCE: Guidance for new construction provided in UFC 3-460-01 paragraph 8-3.10 includes exterior coatings. Paragraph 8-3.11 includes seal welded of appurtenances. The latest edition of API 650 paragraph 5.1.3.7 requires all attachments to the exterior of a tank to be seal welded.

RECOMMENDATION: Provide a seal welded attachment connecting the stairs to the tank shell.

d. Provide Manhole Repairs OBSERVATION: There are two 24-inch manholes for this tank. 36-inch manholes are recommended for safety during maintenance and inspection. A tertiary manhole is required above the internal floating pan’s high position.

REFERENCE: UFC 3-460-01 Table 8-1 requires a vertical aboveground tank to be provided with two 36-inch manholes in locations 180 degrees from each other. UFC 3-460-01 also requires a shell manhole located above the internal floating pan’s high position to aid in venting the tank during cleaning and to provide access to the floating pan’s elastomeric wiper seals.

RECOMMENDATION: Remove the two 24-inch manholes and provide two (2) 36-inch manholes.

Provide manholes in accordance with API Standard 650. Provide an additional 36-inch manhole located above the internal floating pan’s high position. Provide a landing for this manhole and modify the stairway, as required. These repairs may be programmed to occur at the next out-of-service tank inspection when the tank is empty.

e. Remove Gravel Ballast OBSERVATION: The secondary containment liner is covered with a gravel ballast. This ballast makes inspecting the liner not feasible.

REFERENCE: The Commonwealth of Virginia regulation 9VAC25-91-130 requires the integrity of secondary containment at facilities, with over 25,000 gallons of oil, be evaluated and certified by a Professional Engineer at least every ten years.

RECOMMENDATION: Remove the gravel ballast that is covering the secondary containment liner.

Confirm liner is not susceptible to UV damage. Provide sandbags to prevent liner uplift due to wind.

Provide a secondary containment evaluation in accordance with State regulations.

f. Repair Shotcrete OBSERVATION: The earthen berm is covered with shotcrete. The shotcrete has extensive cracking and major spalling issues.

REFERENCE: NFPA 30 paragraph 22.11.2.4 and CFR 112.7(c)(1) require secondary containment to be liquid tight. If the secondary containment has failed at the shotcrete and a leak were to happen, the containment is not liquid tight.

RECOMMENDATION: No separate repair action is recommended because there is a project in place to repair the secondary containment. If the project existing does not move forward, then this repair is recommended.

g. Remove Biological Growth OBSERVATION: The secondary containment liner is covered with a gravel ballast. The gravel promotes vegetative growth. There is mold and algae at the dike drain. There is a mold growth visible on the wind girder.

REFERENCE: UFC 3-460-03 Paragraph 8-10.2 requires the operators to inspect for vegetation that has taken root in seals or cracks. All vegetation must be removed in all cases to prevent penetration of seals, joints or cracks in the concrete.

RECOMMENDATION: Remove the vegetation/moss/algae from the secondary containment. Clean the wind girder and provide a herbicide to prevent future buildup.

h. Repair Tank Labels OBSERVATION: The tank fuel identification labels are peeling at the tank shell.

REFERENCE: UFC 3-460-03 paragraph 2-4.6.1 requires clear identification of petroleum fuel systems and equipment by product type and grade to ensure operational safety and product quality protection.

RECOMMENDATION: Remove the peeling tank labels. Provide labels in accordance with UFC 3-460- 01 and MIL-STD-161.

i. Repair Chime Sealant

OBSERVATION: The chime sealant has various spots where the sealant has failed.

REFERENCE: UF 3-460-03 Paragraph 8-4.1 requires base personnel to visually inspect chime to ringwall sealant. Seal should be maintained in good working order to prevent corrosion of the underside of the tank bottom.

RECOMMENDATION: Remove the damaged portions on the sealant (approximately five linear feet).

Provide new sealant in accordance with UFC 3-460-01, API 653, AW 078-24-27.

j. Repair Coating OBSERVATION: There are minor spot coating repairs required on several areas of the tank. The manhole bolts, water draw-off nozzle, and water probe nozzle have coating failure and minor corrosion.

REFERENCE: UFC 3-460-03 Appendix F – Monthly Tank Inspection Checklists requires base personnel to inspect for evidence of corrosion. These areas should be maintained to extend the service life of the fueling system.

RECOMMENDATION: Provide spot repairs to the coating on the manhole bolts, water draw-off nozzle, water probe nozzle and other appurtenances as needed using coating materials compatible with the existing coatings.

k. Provide Personnel Grounding Plate

OBSERVATION: The circumferential tank stairs do not have a personnel grounding plate at the first step.

REFERENCE: UFC 3-460-03 Section 2-3.2 requires all petroleum fuel system components must be bonded and grounded.

RECOMMENDATION: Provide personnel grounding pad at the bottom stair for the circumferential tank stair. Install bonding conductors no smaller than #6 AWG bare copper grounding wire from each non-current carrying metallic object to a common grounding electrode conductor.

l. Provide Additional Fire Protection OBSERVATION: The AST does not have two fire hydrants located within 300 feet. There are fire hydrants located outside of this distance, and one located inside the fuel farm fence adjacent to the pumphouse.

REFERENCE: UFC 3-460-01 requires two fire hydrants within 300 feet hose length for fire protection of aboveground storage tanks.

RECOMMENDATION: Extend the water line and provide an additional fire hydrant. There is an existing in-ground hydrant and water line located adjacent to the pumphouse. Ensure hydrant has 1,000 gpm flow for 2 hours.

APPENDIX ‘A’: ENGINEERING CALCULATIONS AND DRAWINGS

SHELL ROUNDNESS SURVEY AND SETTLEMENT

The shape of the shell appears to slightly exceed the allowable API 650 tolerance of plus or minus 3/4-inch of a new tank shell radius. Based on the circumference of the shell measured near the bottom, the radius of the shell should be 26 feet. However, the measured radii of the shell vary at the bottom from 25 feet and 11-29/32 inches to 26 feet and 1-inch. The tank bottom and roof should restrain the shell from deflection near the bottom and near the top because there did not appear to be any significant distortion of the shell would seem to suggest the tank was built slightly out-of-round. It is noted that the tolerance for out-of-roundness has been included in API 650 before 1993. API 650 1st Edition was published in 1960. However, it has not been until later years that the industry has had the laser surveying technology and methods available to measure tank upper shell courses. It should be noted that API 653,10.5.3 – 3rd Edition (published in 2001), and later editions, allow the shell out-of-roundness (radial deviation), at higher than one-foot above a bottom of a reconstructed tank, to be as much as three times greater (2-1/4 inches): a subject not addressed in API 653 prior to the year 2001. As measuring the out-of-roundness using such methods is not normally included in an API 653 Inspection of an existing and not reconstructed tank, and as the out-of-roundness does not appear to be a detriment to the structural integrity of the tank, no action is required or recommended at this time. The tank settlement appeared to be within tolerance from API 653 Appendix ‘B’. The data points used in the settlement calculation were gathered from the laser scanning survey.

C.1.4 Roofs

C.1.4.1 Deck Plate Internal Corrosion

For safety, before accessing the roof, check with ultrasonic instrument or lightly use a ball peen hammer to test the deck plate near the edge of the roof for thinning. (Corrosion normally attacks the deck plate at the edge of a fixed roof and at the rafters in the center of the roof first.)

C.1.4.2 Deck Plate External Corrosion

ITEM TASK STATUS

Visually inspect for paint failure, holes, pitting, and corrosion product on the roof deck.

C.1.4.3 Roof Deck Drainage Look for indication of standing water.

(Significant sagging of fixed roof deck indicates potential rafter failure.

Large standing water areas on a floating roof indicate inadequate drainage design or, if to one side, a nonlevel roof with possible leaking pontoons.)

COMMENTS

C.1.4.4 Level of Floating Roof At several locations, measure distance from roof rim to a horizontal weld seam above the roof. A variance in the readings indicates a nonlevel roof with possible shell out-of-round, out-of-plumb, leaking pontoons, or hang-up. On small diameter tanks, an unlevel condition can indicate unequal loading at that level.

C.1.4.5 Gas Test Internal Floating Roof

Test for explosive gas on top of the internal floating roof, Readings could indicate a leaking roof, leaking seal system, or inadequate ventilation of the area above the internal floating roof.
