3.1.3 Protective measures. The Contractor must furnish and install all protective measures in accordance with SFLC Std Spec 0000, paragraph 3.3.3 (Vessel component, space, and equipment protection).

3.1.4 Interferences. The Contractor must handle all interferences in accordance with SFLC Std Spec 0000, paragraph 3.3.5 (Interferences). Known interferences include, but are not limited to the following:

• TLIs
• Piping
• Residual tank contents/fluids

note

Coast Guard personnel will operate all shipboard machinery and equipment.

3.2 Operational test, initial. Prior to commencement of work, the Contractor must witness Coast Guard personnel perform an initial operational test of all items or shipboard devices to be disturbed, used, repaired, or altered, to demonstrate existing operational condition. Submit a CFR.

3.2.1 Perform an initial operational test of each tank TLIs to demonstrate that each radar head/sensor is functional (i.e., Digital readout is displayed). 

3.2.2 Ensure that there is interface/communication between the TLI sensor and the Machinery Control and Monitoring System (i.e. Digital readout at the TLI is identical to that displayed).

3.3 Tank opening.  The Contractor must remove the tank manhole cover(s) and ventilate the confined spaces in accordance with SFLC Std Spec 0000, Paragraphs 3.3.1.1 and 3.3.1.2.  The Contractor must provide fall protection to cover tank manhole cover when opened for ventilation/work.

WARNING

Do not use the Fuel Service or Transfer systems to drain the water from the tank. Excessive fuel contamination will result.

3.4 Tank content and waste disposal. The Contractor must dispose of residual tank contents listed in Table 1 and any cleaning fluids in compliance with all applicable Federal, state, and local laws, ordinances and regulations. Notify the COR (in writing) at least 48 hours prior to removal of wastes and fluids.  Document a complete chain of custody record of the removed tank contents and generated wastes, from the vessel to the point of final destination or delivery. Submit chain of custody record to the COR upon completion of work.

3.5 Temporary plugs.  The Contractor must plug all inlet and outlet piping in the tank to prevent contaminants from entering the tank or piping system.  Use plugs with an attached lanyard, ring or other system that will ensure plugs are not lost in the pipe openings. 

3.5.1 Plug log. The Contractor must keep a written record of all installed plugs.  Keep a separate list for each tank.  Maintain a plug accountability log posted immediately outside the tank to prevent any of the installed temporary plugs from being lost inside the tank or left behind inside at tank closure.  The log must include the type and size of each plug, installation date, and removal date. Submit this log to the COR after completion of work item via a CFR.

3.5.2 The Contractor must ensure that all plugs are removed from each tank upon completion of work in the tank.

3.6 Tank cleaning.  The Contractor must clean all designated tank interior surfaces free of all foreign materials, such as residual fuel or water, sediment, sludge, rust, or biological growth, taking care not to damage the coating system (if applicable).

3.6.1 The Contractor must accomplish all requirements of SFLC Std Spec 6310, 3.1.6.4 (Surface contaminant removal) to achieve the cleanliness requirements of SSPC-SP 1, including a low-pressure (maximum 5,000 psi) fresh water wash down of the surfaces.

3.6.2 Remove cleaning media and residues continuously from the tank during the washing process.  Remove any residual wash media and wipe up residual moisture with clean lint-free cloths.  Wipe the interior tank structure dry and free of all cleaning agents.

3.7 Inspection. The Contractor must visually inspect all tank interior surfaces, including, but not limited to bulkheads, floor and overhead plating, structural members, manhole cover surfaces, fasteners and gasket seating surfaces. Submit a CFR including the following, as applicable:

• Tank structural condition.
• Manhole and cover condition.
• Ladder condition (if applicable).
• Tank level indicator (TLI) and/or float switch condition.
• Sounding/vent tube and striker plate condition.
• Suction and discharge piping condition.
• Fastener material and condition.
• Pit measurements
• Ultrasonic thickness (UT) measurements

3.8 Pit measurement. The Contractor must measure 50 pits within each tank/location listed in Table 1, in accordance with SFLC Std Spec 0740, Paragraph 3.13 (Evaluation of pitting corrosion). The results of these measurements must be included in the inspection report, showing where pit measurements were taken and the depth of the pit.

3.9 Ultrasonic thickness (UT) measurement. The Contractor must take UT measurements in the surrounding area of any pit measuring greater than 25% of plate thickness.  UT measurements must be taken in the four quadrants at an equal-distant radius from the pit center until full plate thickness is measured.   For bidding purposes, assume 200 UT measurements per tank listed in Table 1.  UT measurements must be conducted in accordance with SFLC Std Spec 0740, Appendix C, using Coast Guard Drawings 750-WMSL_100_21, 750-WMSL_100_22, 750-WMSL-100-36, and 750-WMSL-100_43 as guidance.  The results of these measurements (original thickness, measured thickness, and any observed cracks) and the locations where they were taken must be included in the inspection report.

3.10 Substrate fairing and repair by filling Epoxy for shallow pits and small corrosions (i.e. pits < 25% or corrosions < 25%). The Contractor must repair small pin holes, shallow pitted substrates (with remaining plate thicknesses over 75% of required plate thicknesses), and fair corroded substrates (with remaining cross sections over 75% of required cross section areas), after removing coating, in accordance with SFLC Std Spec 6310 and manufacturers’ instructions.

• Procure 10kit(s) of Epoxy Fairing Compound (e.g. Belzona 1111, 0.5 Gallon/5 Kg Kit or equivalent) to conduct repairs.
• Turn over all unused kits to the COR.

NOTE

“Substrate fairing and repair by filling Epoxy for shallow pits and corrosions (i.e. pits < 25% or corrosions < 25%)” is a supplement barrier intending to help delay penetration.

3.11 Surface coating. For all non-painted tanks, the Contractor must apply a coat of heavy oil to all tank interior surfaces, following final tank inspection and just prior to tank closing. If surface rust developed on the interior tank surfaces while the tank was open, the Contractor must wipe the surfaces clean to a condition free of surface rust prior to coating with system fluid.

NOTE

Minimizing the amount of time the tanks are left open will reduce the surface rust that accumulates on tank interior surfaces.

3.12 Tank closing. The Contractor must ensure that the tank(s) remain open for approximately 24 hours after completion of any authorized repair and preservation procedures. Notify the COR at least 48 hours prior to closing the tank(s). After satisfactory inspection by the Coast Guard Inspector and completion of all authorized repairs, remove all installed temporary plugs and document removal via signature on the plug log by the Coast Guard Inspector and Contractor prior to tank closing. Close tank manhole cover(s) using new gasket material, nuts and grommets in accordance with Coast Guard Drawing 750-WMSL-167-001, in the presence of the Coast Guard Inspector. Chase threads on studs to ensure even installation of the access covers. Submit a CFR with the completed plug log.

note

Coast Guard personnel will operate all shipboard machinery and equipment.

3.13 Operational test, post repairs. After completion of work, the Contractor must thoroughly test, in the presence of the Coast Guard Inspector and demonstrate all items or shipboard devices that have been disturbed, used, repaired, altered, or installed to be in satisfactory operating condition.  Submit a CFR.

3.13.1 Perform a post-work operational test of each tank TLIs to demonstrate that each radar head/sensor is functional (i.e., Digital readout is displayed). 

3.13.2 Ensure that there is interface/communication between the TLI sensor and the Machinery Control and Monitoring System (i.e. Digital readout at the TLI is identical to that displayed).

3.14 Touch-up preservation.  The Contractor must prepare and coat all new and disturbed surfaces, and all manhole cover external surfaces to match existing adjacent surfaces in accordance with SFLC Std Spec 6310, paragraph 3.1.13 (Touch-ups and minor coating repairs). Do not paint any manhole cover fasteners.
