(RP-01-69) designed into an engineered, jobsite-installed, monitored,.
cathodic protection system. Galvanic anode cathodic protection
systems shall be monitored between 1 and 1.3 weeks following completion
of installation, again after 1 year of.operation, and every 5 years
thereafter to demonstrate continued corrosion protection. Impressed
current cathodic protection systems shall be checked for proper operation
of the rectifier by monitoring monthly to insure proper functioning of
the rectifier and shall have the annual system test and inspection
performed by a qual.ified person to demonstrate continued corrosion
protection. Records of this monitoring shall be maintained by the owner

fiberglass-reinforced pl.astics. tEach corrosion-resistant underground
storage tank shall be listed.

a detailed anal.ysis of the site is made available to the authority
having jurisdiction and found to be nonc.orrosive. For purposes of this
rule, corrosive soil conditions exist when soil. resistivity is less than
1.0,000 ohm/centimeters. The analysis shall include, at a minimum, all
of the following:

the pressure developed under full emergency-venting of the tank.
2-7.7. Each .tank which has been repaired, altered, or suspected of
leaking shall be tested in the manner specified in 2-7.2 and 2-7.3. The
authoricy having jurisdiction may require testing of any tank when there
is reason to believe the tank is defective. The ciwner or person in
control of the premises on which the tank is located shall provide tank
testing. The test shall be by a volumetric test or other suitable means
under the provisions of 2-7.4 as approved by the authority having
jurisdiction. The test shall be conducted in the presence of the
authority having jurisdiction or the results of the test shall be reported
to the authority having jurisdiction in the form of an affidavit.

piping system, the authority having jurisdiction may order, at the
expense of the owner, person, or firm in control of the premises, emptying
the tank, piping, or entire system or portions of the tank or piping
system of liquid; and the removal of the faulcy tank or repairing of the
tank, piping, or system in a manner acceptable to the authority having
juris diction.

bottom and capped flush at ground level with a screw or expansion-type
cap. If the top of the pipe passes through concrete or asphalt, it
shall be located in a sleeve with a cover for protection against vehicular
damage and settlement. The test holes shall be located 1 to 3 feet from
the ends of the tank, and the bottom of the pipe shall extend to a depth
as determined by the authority having jurisdiction. Each pipe shall be
perforated with holes spread a maximum of 12 inches apart which will
