Section 6-77-191 - Pipe-type and bottle-type holders: Plan for inspection and testing
Current through August, 2024
Each operator having a pipe type or bottle-type holder shall establish a plan for the systematic, routine inspection and testing of these facilities, including the following:
(1) Provision must be made for detecting external corrosion before the strength of the container has been impaired;
(2) Periodic sampling and testing of gas in storage must be made to determine the dew point of vapors contained in the stored gas, that if condensed, might cause internal corrosion or interfere with the safe operation of the storage plant; and
(3) The pressure control and pressure limiting equipment must be inspected and tested periodically to determine that it is in a safe operating condition and has adequate capacity.
