About this file
This document is an API 653 In-Service Inspection Report for Tank 2 (Facility 110) at Quonset Point Air National Guard Base in Rhode Island, prepared by the US Army Corps of Engineers Omaha District. The comprehensive inspection report evaluates the structural integrity and condition of a 2,500-barrel (105,039 gallon) aboveground vertical storage tank containing Jet A fuel, with a 27-foot diameter and 28'3" height.
Key findings include several recommended repairs and improvements, such as installing link seals at secondary containment wall penetrations, performing magnetic particle examination of manhole welds, repairing a pinhole in a high-level control nozzle weld, and addressing issues with the tank's grounding system. The tank's shell was evaluated as having greater than 30 years of remaining service life. Notable long-term recommendations include installing a cathodic protection system, implementing a bottom leak detection system, adding additional ground cables, modifying anchor chair configurations, and upgrading various tank appurtenances like manholes, stairways, and roof vents to meet current engineering standards.

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 2 (Facility 110).
2. Site Information
On June 8, 2021, InterSpec, LLC performed an API 653 In‐Service inspection of Tank 2 (Facility 110), located at Quonset Point ANG, RI.
B. TANK INSPECTION COMMENTS
1. Tank Construction Tank 2 is a nominal 105,039 gallon (2,500 barrel), 27’ 0” diameter by 28’ 3” tall, Jet A, aboveground vertical storage tank. The original construction nameplate was not affixed to the tank. The tank had an upgrade/repairs in 2018 by CAPE Environmental, Inc. that included new gauging poles and internal/external coatings, as displayed by a nameplate.
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 concrete floor and concrete vertical walls. 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 graded to drain water away from the tank in accordance with NFPA 30.
3. Tank Foundation The tank rests on a concrete ringwall. The tank does not have a cathodic protection system.
The tank does not have a bottom leak detection system. The foundation was visually evaluated during the inspection for broken concrete, spalling, cracks, and vegetation against the bottom of the tank. The tank bottom‐to‐ringwall sealant was inspected, and no sealant was observed. A shell settlement survey was performed during the inspection in accordance with Appendix B of API Standard 653. Settlement results are listed in Appendix A.
4. Tank Bottom The bottom was not evaluated.
5. Tank Shell The shell is constructed of A‐36 carbon steel material. The shell is a cylindrical design, butt‐ welded together, consisting of four (4) courses. The shell exterior has a thin film epoxy coating system. The coating was inspected for disbonding, adhesion, deterioration, and discoloration; it is in satisfactory condition. The shell was evaluated for remaining metal thickness utilizing ultrasonic technology. The ultrasonic thickness measurements and thickness measurement locations (TML) are listed in the Shell Plate Thickness Measurements table in Appendix A. A shell service life evaluation performed on all shell courses shows the shell has a remaining life of greater than 30 years under current conditions. The shell service life evaluation is shown in the Shell Service Life Evaluation table in Appendix A. Roundness, plumbness, peaking, and banding of the shell are all within the allowable tolerances of API Standard 653. 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.
6. Tank Floating Roof The tank is equipped with an internal floating roof. The floating roof is a sealed honeycomb cell floating pan. The roof seals and opening gaskets were inspected for tears and deterioration from the roof inspection hatches; they are in satisfactory condition.
7. Tank Fixed Roof The fixed roof is a self‐supported cone roof constructed of A‐36 carbon steel material. The fixed roof has an epoxy coating system on the exterior. The coating was inspected for disbonding, adhesion, deterioration, and discoloration; it is in satisfactory condition. The fixed roof was evaluated for remaining metal thickness using ultrasonic technology. The ultrasonic thickness measurements and ultrasonic thickness locations (TML) are listed in the Fixed Roof Plate Thickness Measurements table in Appendix C.
8. Tank Appurtenances Note: The following table is an overview of the appurtenance status regarding UFC‐3‐460‐01 and AW 78‐24‐78 standards and does not reflect API standards, federal regulations, state regulations, and/or local regulations.
