EPA inspectors conducted a physical inspection of the UST system as well as a review of Facility records. Photographs of UST system components taken during the inspection are in Attachment C. Photo-documentation of operation and maintenance records are in Attachment D. Tank Leak Detection Tank leak detection equipment consists of a Gilbarco EMC automatic tank gauge (ATG), which conducts static leak tests. Release detection records for the past year were available for all in-use USTs at the Facility. The ATG passed an operability/functionality test on May 7, 2024. Piping Leak Detection Piping leak detection is satisfied by electronic line leak detectors (LLD) and annual line tightness testing. Records of annual line tightness testing and annual line leak detector testing were available onsite, showing passing tests conducted on May 7, 2024. Cathodic Protection Cathodic protection (CP) is provided by a galvanic anode system which passed a triennial test on August 15, 2024, that included all four USTs and the associated piping. Periodic Testing/Inspection of Spill and Overfill Prevention Equipment Spill buckets on the three in-use USTs passed testing/inspection on August 15, 2024.
