bucket and fill pipe for the two USTs. An audible external overfill alarm was observed in close
proximity to the tank field. The spill bucket for Tank 1 contained about inch of fuel. The spill
bucket for Tank 2 appeared to be clean and in good condition. Mr.

STP for both USTs. Mechanical ALLDs were observed on the STPs. The junction boxes
associated with the STPs were in good condition. The ATG probes were also present in the STP
sump for each of the tanks, and no issues were noted for these during the inspection.
There were four pump dispensers on site and one of these were opened as part of the inspection.
Dispenser piping was entering the secondary containment as shown in Photograph #7 in

2. SUMMARY
Tank 1 has a 15,000-gallon capacity and stores regular unleaded gasoline. Tank 2 has a 12,000-
gallon capacity and stores premium unleaded gasoline. Tank 1 and Tank 2 are FRP constructed
tanks and were installed in 1994. Passing leak detection results were provided for both tanks for
the previous 12 months. An annual certification for the ATG system was provided during the
inspection. There are four dispensers on site that operate with pressurized flexible plastic piping
so cathodic protection is not required. Passing testing records for the ALLD functionality tests
and the annual line tightness tests were provided. STPs for the tanks have mechanical ALLDs.
No visible signs of a leak were observed. An audible external overfill alarm was observed in
close proximity to the tank field. The spill bucket for Tank 1 contained about inch of fuel. The
spill bucket for Tank 2 appeared to be clean and in good condition. No hydrostatic testing results
for the spill buckets was provided. Tank 1 and Tank 2 are single-walled FRP tanks with double-
walled flexible plastic piping. Cathodic protection is not required. Ms.
is a Class A and
Class B operator. There were no designated Class C operators. Monthly walkthrough inspection
records were provided for the past 12 months but only involved checking the ALLD. The facility
provided a Certificate of Registration that expires on 06/30/2023 showing it is part of the
petroleum tank release compensation fund. No documentation was provided concerning the
deductible. Attachment J contains the Notice of Inspection signed by Ms.
. Mr.
provided a copy to Ms.
and left the premises.
