2. BASE STANDARDIZATION PROGRAM

2.1. Above Ground Tanks

2.1.1. For instances that Fuel Oil, Diesel Tank, Mogas Tank or Underground Sump controls are deemed to need replacement, the Government will require them to be replaced with a Veeder Root Model TLS -300C or newer model if the 300c is discontinued. The alarms required for each tank are as follows:

2.1.1.1. Interstitial monitoring of the Fuel Oil/Mogas/Diesel Tank

2.1.1.2. High Level Alarm

2.1.1.3. Low Level Alarm

2.1.1.4. Piping sump( floor area)

2.1.2. General information applicable to all installations

2.1.2.1. Each Fuel Oil, Mogas, Diesel or JP-8 tank will require a separate remote alarm panel to be located outdoors on the wall next to the fill station to tell the delivery driver when the tank is getting full by aid of an audible alarm/visual light and manual reset button. Remote exterior monitor units located next to the tanks must be in waterproof boxes with some form of heater inside to remove moisture or condensation so terminals inside will not corrode. This will be required for all new control units.

2.1.2.2. The main monitor control panel will have a printer incorporated to print out problems on a hard copy paper tape for record-keeping purposes.

2.1.2.3. Any new tank connections with probes or sensors should be installed with quick disconnects where possible, versus threaded pipe applications, for ease of probe removal.

2.1.2.4. All new main monitor control units must be located in a warm room out of the weather. For Bangor, main control monitor units will be located in Boiler Rooms or in this case inside of the Pump House where the FP-1 through FP-3 manometers are coming off the wall.

2.1.2.5. Contractor to provide wiring from the new monitor panel to the Monaco Panel for sending alarms to the fire department for :

2.1.2.5.1. Low fuel alarm for each of the (4) diesel tanks

2.1.2.5.2. Containment leak should a tank rupture, in the tank storage room.
