Pressurized lines must be tested on an annual basis at a .1 gph leak rate.
All pressurized product lines are required to have line leak detectors on them. These line leak detectors must be tested once a year to make sure they are in working condition.
If you have double-walled pressurized product lines with a continuous line leak detector, the line leak detector must be checked once a year to make sure it is in working condition. If the line leak detector is not continuous, then a line tightness test and a check of the line leak detector is required once a year.
All cathodic protection systems, sacrificial or impressed, must be tested every 3 years by a corrosion tester. If the system is not maintaining adequate protection, it must be repaired and re-tested until adequate protection can be maintained.
Please note that for impressed cathodic protection systems, a log must be maintained to show that the system is working. This log would include a date that the rectifier box was checked, who checked it and the readings from the rectifier box. (The readings would include the number on the hour meter, the amp/volt amount, and if you have a system that provides a green/red light to indicate if the system is on and working, record the color of the light).
The PSTIF will review an application within 30 days of receipt. Many times if the submissions are not complete, additional time is required to request the information from the applicant.
