The following Government information is provided in support of the contractor’s hypothetical repair.

Measurements” are provided.

‐ The Government does not have access/capability to remove ring to assess any corrosion or thinning on the lid.

‐The NB# for this tank is 106.

3. What would be the proposed plan to ensure that the sealing ring and mating surface are within tolerance to return the pressure vessel back to its original 4000 PSI maximum working pressure.
