About this file
This is an API 653 In-Service Inspection Report for Tank 7 (Facility 804) at Arnold Air Force Base in Tennessee, conducted by Austin Brockenbrough & Associates on June 30, 2020. The inspection was performed on a 20-foot diameter by 18-foot tall, single wall, vertical field-erected tank with a nominal storage capacity of 1,000 barrels of F-24 fuel, constructed in 1954 according to API 650 standards.
The tank was found to be in generally good condition and fully serviceable with no mandatory repairs required. However, several deficiencies were noted requiring attention, including: cracking/spalling in the concrete foundation, failed chime sealant, water ponding in three locations on the roof, lack of davits on manholes, coating deterioration on the roof, failed joint sealants in the containment area, and threaded thermal relief valve assemblies with sight flow indicators. The report recommends the next API In-Service inspection be performed by June 2025 and internal inspection by August 2028. The tank features include high/low-level alarms, ATG gauging system, carbon steel construction, and fire protection via surrounding AFFF cannons.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND SUITABILITY FOR CONTINUED SERVICE
Austin Brockenbrough & Associates, LLC (Brockenbrough) was retained by Omaha District USACE under Contract No. W9128F-17-D-0017 Delivery Order W9128F20F0079 to perform SPCC Mandated AST/UST Inspections at various locations. As required by this task, Brockenbrough executed a tank inspection site visit to Arnold AFB, Tullahoma, Tennessee. An API 653 In-Service (visual external) Inspection was conducted for Facility No. 804 (Tank 7), on June 30, 2020. This inspection was performed in accordance with API Standard 653, “Tank Inspection, Repair, Alteration, and Reconstruction,” and the referenced contract. The inspection included a tank foundation settlement evaluation. All observations made during this API In-Service (visual external) inspection were made from the exterior of the tank.
Facility 804 is a 20-foot diameter by 18-foot tall, single wall, vertical, field-erected tank with a nominal storage capacity of 1,000 barrels (per dataplate) of F-24. The repair organization’s nameplate indicates the tank was erected in accordance with API 650 in 1954. The repair organization’s nameplate also indicates the installation of two new stilling wells, level alarms, ladder, and handrails/platform on the roof were completed in 2008. Details of tank construction and appurtenances are included in the Tank Information Table in Section ‘B’.
This tank was found to be in generally good condition, fully serviceable, no mandatory repairs noted, and 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 In-Service (visual external) inspection of Tank 804 should be performed by June 2025. The August 2008 in-service inspection report recommended an internal inspection to be performed by August 2028 to meet API requirements. The inspection should include an examination of the tank bottom by magnetic flux leakage (MFL or MFE) technology and a thorough code compliance evaluation. However, it may be advantageous to schedule the external and internal inspections concurrently.
A. GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION
1. SPCC Mandated AST Inspections This project will perform an API 653 inspection of various tanks at facilities throughout the United States. The specific inspection performed is based on available information on the tank type, product being stored, and recommendations from previous inspection reports (if available). Additional consideration is given to federal, state, and local regulations, as well as applicable military criteria and general industry standards.
For this Task Order, Brockenbrough performed Inspection of Facility 804 located at Arnold Air Force Base, Tennessee. For the Tank Facility 804, an API 653 In-Service (external) tank inspection was performed on June 30, 2020. The inspection included a shell settlement survey.
2. Site Information Arnold Air Force Base, formerly Camp Forrest, is located in Tullahoma, Tennessee. It has been in use since 1950 and is home to the Arnold Engineering Development Complex (AEDC). The building of this complex was authorized by congress for $100 million in 1949 and it was dedicated to General Henry Arnold by President Truman in 1951. The airfield was decommissioned in 2009 but helicopters still occupy space on Arnold AFB as mission support for Fort Campbell. Arnold AFB contains wetland which is home to the Gopher Frog.
3. Previous Inspection and Repairs A 2008 out-of-service inspection report indicates the tank was internally inspected in August 2008. Per the previous report, after the inspection was complete and prior to the tank being put back in service the following repairs were performed: relocated HLCV float assembly to permit maintenance and testing, repaired roof catwalk, replaced external ladder, repaired caulking at the tank chime, installed ATG stilling well and ATG, installed manual tank gauge hatch and stilling well, installed water probe stilling well, recoated tank roof and shell, and installed level alarms.
4. Future Projects Facility personnel report there are currently no projects scheduled for execution in the future that affect the operation of the tank.
B. TANK INSPECTION COMMENTS
1. Tank Construction Tank Facility 804 is an aboveground, vertical, storage tank, measuring 20 feet in diameter and 18 feet tall, and with a nominal capacity of 1,000 BBLs (per data plate). The tank manufacturer’s nameplate indicates the tank was constructed in 1954 in accordance with API 650 and repaired/altered to API 653 in 2008.
2. Tank Foundation The tank bottom rests on an elevated concrete foundation pad. The tank appears to be resting on a gasket to protect the steel from contact with the concrete. There was no chime sealant observed at this interface. The foundation was visually evaluated during the inspection for broken concrete, spalling, cracks, and vegetation against the bottom of the tank. The inspection found that there was some cracking/spalling in the concrete foundation. The concrete cracking/spalling should be repaired to prevent further degradation of the tank concrete foundation pad.
3. Tank Bottom The previous inspection report indicates that the bottom consists of lap welded steel plates. The tank bottom projection is approximately 3/4 inches from the tank shell which is less than the required 2 inches per API 650, however it is more than 3/8” minimum required by API 653. The tank bottom projection is in good condition and not showing any signs of corrosion or deterioration.
4. Tank Roof The tank roof is a lap-welded cone roof, constructed out of steel plate. The shell has a vertical ladder for accessing the tank roof. The tank roof has an upper catwalk with handrails for access roof appurtenances. The fixed roof features two (2) 1-1/2-inch float gauge guide wire penetrations, one (1) 1-1/2-inch float gauge penetration, one (1) 6-inch center vent, one (1) 3-inch pressure/vacuum vent, one (1) 8-inch gauging hatch, one (1) 8-inch ATG probe, and one (1) 3-inch ATG water probe penetration. There was evidence of water ponding at three locations on the edge of the roof adjacent to the tank access ladder, although there was no corrosion or paint deterioration noted at these locations.
Tank roof coating system appeared to be in fair condition with several areas showing rust streaking due to coating failure. There was mold/algae growth observed on the tank roof.
5. Tank Shell The vertical and cylindrical shell consists of three butt welded courses. The exterior of the shell was visually inspected and evaluated. Mold and algae streaks were evident on the tank shell, however, the coating system appeared to be in good condition.
6. Tank Appurtenances
a. Gauging
The tank’s Enraf ATG read a fuel level of 6 feet and 11-13/16 inches. The Varec tape gauge read a fuel level of 6 feet and 11-3/4 inches. The ATG and level gauge are within the required tolerance of 2 inches per API 653. There was minor corrosion noted on the ATG flange mount and manual gauge hatch flanges.
b. Level Alarms The tank is provided with an independent, shell mounted high-high, high, and low level alarms.
c. Stairs and Platforms The tank’s steel cone roof is accessible by an external galvanized, vertical ladder.
d. Grounding and Bonding There is one grounding lug on the tank.
7. Tank Coating The tank’s coatings were evaluated for deterioration. The exterior of the shell shows little to no sign of significant deterioration since it was coated in 2008. The exterior of the roof is showing sign of deterioration in several places and showing evidence of rust streaking. The shell and roof are covered with mold and algae. The mold and algae should be treated with a fungicide and the coating system on the tank roof be removed and replaced.
8. Tank Piping System Facility 804 has associated piping located within the containment dike. It is carbon steel piping supported by stanchion-type supports. The piping penetrates the concrete containment walls via linkseal. The receipt and issue piping are 4-inch diameter and transition to 6-inch tank nozzles at the first flange of the tank. One concrete pipe support base cracked and spalled and should be repaired to prevent further degradation of the pipe support.
9. Fire Protection System Fire protection is provided by surrounding AFFF cannons and piping system that surround the tank and adjacent storage tanks.
10. Secondary Containment Secondary containment consists of a concrete dike area with vertical concrete walls. The secondary containment was evaluated during the inspection. The expansion joint sealants in the concrete dike are dry rotted and have started to fail in several locations. The containment is of sufficient size to contain a total tank loss plus one foot of freeboard.
11. Cathodic Protection The tank bottom rests directly on an elevated concrete foundation pad. The tank bottom does not have cathodic protection.

C. FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Tank Facility 804 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. Remove Threaded Plug OBSERVATION: There is a threaded plug present on the tell-tale hole on the repad of the 30-inch manhole. Plugged tell-tale hole will prevent observation of any leaks within repad periphery weld seam.
REFERENCE: API 650 paragraph 5.7.2.10 requires that the telltale hole in the reinforcing plates be open to the atmosphere.
RECOMMENDATION: Remove threaded plug from tell-tale hole on the repad.
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 minor areas of cracks and spalling in the elevated concrete tank foundation. If precipitation enters the foundation through the cracks, the water could promote corrosion of the reinforcing steel in the concrete and damage concrete during freezing conditions.
Deterioration of the foundation could lead to inadequate support for the tank.
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 10 linear feet of cracks and patch approximately 2 square feet of spalling concrete in the tank foundation.
b. Provide Manhole Repairs OBSERVATION: There are two tank shell manholes. One is 18 inches and the other is 30 inches in diameter. Neither manhole is equipped with a davit, which makes it difficult to remove and could be unsafe for inspection/maintenance personnel.
REFERENCE: Guidance for new construction, provided in UFC 3-460-01, Table 8-1 Item f) and DoD Standard Design AW 78-24-27, requires (2) 36-inch diameter shell manholes with cover davits.
RECOMMENDATION: Provide manholes with davits. This repair may be programmed to occur at the next out-of-service tank inspection when the tank is empty. Note: Due to the size of this tank it is not recommended that the manhole sizes be increased.
c. Repair Coating OBSERVATION: There is minor coating failure and corrosion on the gauge hatch nozzle flange and the ATG nozzle flange and at the roof perimeter vent/inspection hatch hinges. There is scattered isolated coating failure and corrosion on the tank roof. The tank shell has mold/algae growth on exterior.
REFERENCE: Guidance for new construction, provided in UFC 3-460-01, paragraph 8-3.10, includes coating the exterior. UFC 3-460-01, Appendix F (Monthly Tank Inspection Checklists) requires Facility personnel to inspect for evidence of corrosion.
RECOMMENDATION: Remove and replace approximately 315 square feet of the DoD coating system on tank roof. Remove mold/algae from tank shell to prevent degradation of tank shell coating.
d. Repair Joint Sealant OBSERVATION: The concrete joint sealant in the dike area have dry-rotted and failed in several locations. This may result in further deterioration of the sealant and void the secondary containment.
REFERENCE: NFPA 30 paragraph 22.11.2.4 and 40 CFR 112.7(c )(1) require dikes to be liquid tight.
RECOMMENDATION: Remove and provide approximately 400 linear feet of new joint sealant in the concrete secondary containment area.
e. Provide Tank Bottom-to-Foundation Seal OBSERVATION: The tank bottom-to-foundation does not have a seal to prevent water from infiltrating underneath the tank.
REFERENCE: UFC 3-460-03 paragraph 8-4.1 requires facility personnel to periodically inspect and repair the bottom-to-foundation seal but does not include the item in its tank inspection checklists included in Appendix ‘F’ of UFC 3-460-03.
RECOMMENDATION: Provide approximately 63 linear feet of chime sealant.
f. Provide Roof Perimeter Guardrail OBSERVATION: The tank roof only has a perimeter guardrail adjacent to the vertical access ladder.
Personnel are required to utilize fall protection measures (harness, lanyards, etc.) when performing maintenance and accessing the top of the tank.
REFERENCE: OSHA regulation 29 CFR 1910.25 (b) requires the step rise to be uniform throughout any flight of stairs including any foundation structure used as one or more stair treads.
RECOMMENDATION: Provide a roof perimeter guardrail, approximately 63 linear feet, around the entire tank roof to promote safe access and working environment for personnel.
g. Replace Thermal Relief Assemblies OBSERVATION: The thermal relief piping is constructed from check valves, tubing, and threaded pipe and fittings. There are also sight flow indicators installed in the relief piping, which are known leak points. Testing of the thermal relief valves requires complete disassembly of the thermal relief piping.
REFERENCE: Guidance for the design of piping systems provided in UFC 3-460-01 paragraph 9-8(e) discourages threaded piping connections.
RECOMMENDATION: Demolish four existing thermal relieve assemblies and provide new angle pattern thermal relief valves, welded pipe and isolation valves and testing tees per UFC 3-460-01 requirements.
h. Ponding on Roof OBSERVATION: There is ponding on the roof at three locations. Ponding areas are prone to coating failure and corrosion, although there is currently no evidence of that as the tank was recently coated.
REFERENCE: Guidance for new construction, provided in UFC 3-460-01, paragraph 8-3.10, includes coating the exterior. UFC 3-460-01, Appendix ‘F’ (Monthly Tank Inspection Checklists) requires Facility personnel to inspect for evidence of corrosion.
RECOMMENDATION: Facility personnel should visually inspect the ponding after heavy rains and perform water removal as required to prevent the potential for coating failure and corrosion.
i. Install Double Block and Bleed Isolation Valves OBSERVATION: The tank skin valves on the issue, receipt, and water draw-off piping are ball valves.
REFERENCE: UFC 3-460-01, paragraph 13-3.7 requires double block and bleed isolation valves on the tank nozzles on tanks larger than 12,000 gallons.
RECOMMENDATION: Remove three existing 4-inch isolation ball valves and install double block and bleed valves on the water draw-off, tank issue, and tank receipt pipelines.
j. Monitor Reinforcing Pads for Signs of Stress OBSERVATION: The reinforcing pad weld clearance at the chime of the 30-inch manhole is not in compliance with API 650 weld spacing requirements. The weld seam of the repad is directly overlapping the tank shell to bottom weld. No visible signs of stress were noted at this location during this inspection.
REFERENCE: API 650 Table 5.6 indicates the minimum weld spacing between a diamond manhole repad and the bottom to shell weld. Per API 653 paragraph 4.3.9.1 this weld spacing could be acceptable if it is examined by the magnetic particle method and it has no rejectable defects or indications.
RECOMMENDATION: Perform a magnetic particle examination of the welds to determine if the welds are acceptable or if the repad needs to be replaced with a doghouse style repad.
k. Repair Concrete Base of Pipe Support
OBSERVATION: The concrete base associated with a pipe support in the dike containment area has deteriorated and is showing signs of severe spalling.
REFERENCE: UFC 3-460-01, paragraph 13-13.2 requires damaged pipe supports to be repaired.
RECOMMENDATION: Repair concrete base of damaged pipe support.
l. Repair Drain Line to PST OBSERVATION: The drain line to the product saver tank from the water draw-off line is threaded, close to grade, and sits in water when it rains.
REFERENCE: UFC 3-460-01, paragraph 9-3 requires new piping to be supported so that it is clear of any flooding or ponding, and paragraph 9-8 (e) requires the use of welded connections.
RECOMMENDATION: Reconfigure the piping so that it is not submerged in water after a rain event.
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 10 feet. However, the measured radii of the shell vary at the bottom from approximately 9 feet and 9- 7/8 inches to 9 feet and 11-1/2 inches. The measured radii of the shell vary at the top from approximately 10 feet and 1-11/16 inches to 9 feet 10-7/16-inches. 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 is outside of the tolerances allowed by the API 653 Appendix ‘B’ calculations, but this calculation methodology is not accurate for tanks with small diameters (less than 50 feet). The total measured settlement is less than the allowed settlement tolerances for a new tank. Since the tank was constructed in 1954 and the settlement does not appear to be a detriment to the structural integrity of the tank, no action is required or recommended at this time. The data points used in the settlement calculation were gathered from the laser scanning survey.

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.)
Ponding in (3) areas
C.1.4 Roofs
ITEM TASK
Minor corrosion on manhole and roof nozzle flanges C.1.4.2 Deck Plate External Corrosion
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.
