About this file
This document is an Inspection Report for a diesel tank (CU-103-AST-04) located at NSA Cutler in Cutler, Maine. The report was prepared by Applied Technical Services and provides a detailed visual inspection of the external and internal conditions of the tank. Key findings include scattered coating failure, surface rust, and light corrosion throughout the tank shell, heads, and support structure. The report categorizes the tank as STI-SP001 Category 1, with a recommendation for a 5-10 year formal inspection frequency. Action items are identified, including addressing coating deterioration and verifying the adequacy of the pressure/vacuum venting system. The report also includes background information on the tank, such as its size, construction, and location.
The related federal contract opportunity is for the demolition of three existing bulk tanks and four transient fuel tanks at NSA Cutler, followed by the installation of four new 50,000 gallon tanks in the bulk tank area and four new 20,000 gallon tanks in the transient fuel area. The solicitation includes 11 bid options for additional related work. The contracting agency is the Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command.

Two grounding cables were observed. No visible deterioration or damage observed.
None was observed on this equipment.
Overflow
None was observed on this equipment.
Nozzles
This was observed on the shell. No visible deterioration or damage observed.
Emergency Venting
Scattered coating failure and surface rust observed throughout.
South Head
Scattered coating failure and surface rust observed throughout.
Anchorage
This report identifies the over-pressure protection that was readily obvious during inspection. No determination of relief capacity was made by ATS. The owner should verify properly sized protection is provided for the system.
The tank was determined to be Category 1 per STI SP001. The basis for this determination is the spill control was observed to be the secondary containment, and the inherent CRDM was observed to be the tank is lifted off the ground.
The owner should verify the ability of the spill control to fully contain a release.

STI-SP001 Category
ATS performed inspections in general accordance with STI-SP001. This report lists the results of inspection and provides a condition assessment of the equipment based upon the information gathered.
External inspections were performed from the ground and available ladders/platforms. External inspections were performed at areas that were safely accessible.
Foundation
Soil/earth is the foundation for this equipment. No visible deterioration or damage observed.
Executive Summary Job Number
399868 Two grounding cables were observed. No visible deterioration or damage observed.
An earthen berm was observed. The earthen berm contains tanks 103-AST-01 thru 103-AST-04 and is lined. No visible deterioration or damage observed.
Nameplate/Platforms/Ladders/Labels
The tank does not have a nameplate and labeling is missing and/or illegible due to weathering. Coating failure and surface rust on access platforms and ladders.
Additional Comments
The tank was stick tested; no water was found to be present. The tank was stick tested; no water was found to be present. 89" of fuel was measured. Sensor/fill gauge is located in control room; the gauge reading was 89.8" of fuel.
Analysis
This equipment was visually assessed in general accordance with STI-SP001. The results listed in this report are based upon the visual inspection performed, and does not include UT thickness data analysis (as UTT was not part of the inspection scope).
Secondary Containment
2 Coating deterioration was observed.
Coat areas as necessary. Refer to coating provider for best surface preparation and coating application.
Per UL-142, this tank requires a normal vent size of 2.5 inches and an emergency vent size of 8 inches. 6 inch normal venting was observed, and no emergency venting was observed.
These are cursory calculations based on observations at the time of inspection. The Owner should verify venting capacity satisfies the requirements of an applicable standard for the system operating parameters (e.g. API-2000, NFPA-30, UL-142).
Observation / Finding Action Item Priority
Priority 1 - High likelihood/consequence of failure (or) Critical code/standard deficiency (or) May not be fit for service without action
Priority 2 - Med likelihood/consequence of failure (or) Add'l info needed for evaluation (or) Action may be considered for continued service
Priority 3 - Low likelihood/consequence of failure (or) Non-critical code/standard deficiency (or) Best practice/preventative maintenance
Action items listed below are based on observations recorded at the time of inspection and/or findings determined during the post-inspection analysis. Priority "1", "2", "3" has been applied and is defined as:
