Item Reference Frequency Manual Valves

Lubricated plug A.2.1.1 Quarterly Gate A.2.1.2 Quarterly Non-lubricated plug Valves A.2.1.3 Quarterly Ball A.2.1.4 Quarterly Miscellaneous

Signs and markings A.2.2.1 Annually Pressure relief A.2.2.2 Annually Direct-reading/DP Gauge A.2.2.3 Annually Cathodic protection A.2.2.4 Annually Electrical Equipment A.2.2.5 Quarterly Auto tank gauge A.2.2.6 Annually Strainer A.2.2.7 As required Piping

Exposed piping A.2.3 Corrosion control A.2.3.1 Semi-annually Identification A.2.3.2 Quarterly Pumps

General maintenance A.2.4.1 Quarterly Lubrication A.2.4.2 Quarterly or per manufacturer Automatic control A.2.4.3 Quarterly Storage Tanks

Cleaning/inspection A.2.5 Without F/S and coating A.2.5.1 Every 4 years

A.2.1.1. Lubricated Plug: Inspect all lubricated plug valves for operation easily. If lubrication is needed due to difficult operation, replace the valves immediately with non-lubricated valves.

All lubricated plug valves must be scheduled for replacement.

• FREQUENCY: Quarterly

A.2.1.2. Gate: Lubricate and operate to prevent seizing. Adjust/replace packing as needed.

• FREQUENCY: Quarterly

A.2.1.3. Non-Lubricated Plug Valves: Inspect for operation easily. Adjust packing and maintain operations per manufacturer’s specifications.

• FREQUENCY: Quarterly

A2-1

A.2.1.4. Ball: Inspect for operation easily and lubricate operations.

• FREQUENCY: Quarterly.

A.2.2.1. Signs and Markings: Check signs and markings for adequacy and readability. See 2008 JEGS, Paragraph 19-3.7, for descriptions of sign board and locations.

• FREQUENCY: Annually.

A.2.2.2. Pressure Relief: Check system pressure relief to ensure proper operation. Test and/or adjust the pressure relief valve 10 % above system deadhead pressure, not to exceed 275 psi.

Repeat the test, if applicable, a minimum of three times to ensure proper operation. Not all pressure relief valves are set at 10% above the maximum operation pressure. Thermal relief valves must be set to allow cascading of pressure back to the storage tank. In the case use set points specified in construction documentation.

• FREQUENCY: Annually.

A.2.2.3. Direct-Reading/DP Gauges: Calibrate according to the manufacturer’s specifications.

• FREQUENCY: Annually.

A.2.2.4. Cathodic Protection: Conduct tests on each buried, in contact with the ground, or submerged UST and pipeline facility in its UST and pipeline system that is under cathodic protection to determine whether the protection is adequate.

• FREQUENCY: At intervals not exceeding 15 months, but at least once each calendar year.

A.2.2.5. Electrical Equipment: Verify proper operation of all electrical equipment associated with the operation of the UST s and systems. Typical inspection items include, but are not limited to:

- Ground conductors

- Ground connections

- Starters and Contactors

- Circuit breakers

- Area lighting

- Grounding cables

- Disconnect switches

- Exposed wiring

- Emergency switches

- Flow switches

- Solenoid valves

A.2.2.6. Automatic Tank Gauges (ATG): Calibrate with test equipment and adjust as required.

Ensure the gauge is free of moisture and debris.

• FREQUENCY: AnnuallyA.3.2.7. Strainer: Inspecting and cleaning system strainers is responsibility of the contractor. The contractor shall replace parts as required.

A2-2

• FREQUENCY: As required.

A.2.3. Exposed Piping.

A.2.3.1. Check all exposed piping, valves, and associated equipment for corrosion. Prepare the surface and repaint as necessary.

• FREQUENCY: Semi-Annually.

A.2.3.2. Piping identification must conform to recognized industry standards. Repaint as necessary.

• FREQUENCY: Quarterly.

A.2.4. Pumps.

A.2.4.1. Check for unusual noise, vibration, over-heating, leaks, and oil level.

A.2.4.2. Lubricate pumps and motors as recommended by the manufacturer.

NOTE: Excessively greased bearings can cause over-heating.

• FREQUENCY: Quarterly or as recommended by the manufacturer.

A.2.4.3. Automatic control of Fuel Transfer Pump: The pump should start and stop automatically when the liquid level reaches at set levels of the service tank (day tank).

• FREQUENCY: Quarterly.

A.2.5. Tank Inspection/Cleaning Requirements: Operating and bulk storage tanks have identical inspection/cleaning frequencies.

A.2.5.1. Tanks without an inlet filter separator (F/S), micronic filter on the inlet, or internal coating.

• FREQUENCY: Every 4 year.

A2-3
