NR 665.1085(5)(c)2.a.a. Visually inspect the internal floating roof components through openings on the fixed-roof (e.g., manholes and roof hatches) at least once every 12 months after initial fill.
NR 665.1085(5)(c)2.b.b. Visually inspect the internal floating roof, primary seal, secondary seal (if one is in service), gaskets, slotted membranes and sleeve seals (if any) each time the tank is emptied and degassed and at least every 10 years.
NR 665.1085(5)(c)3.3. As an alternative to performing the inspections in subd. 2. for an internal floating roof equipped with 2 continuous seals mounted one above the other, visually inspect the internal floating roof, primary and secondary seals, gaskets, slotted membranes and sleeve seals (if any) each time the tank is emptied and degassed and at least every 5 years.
NR 665.1085(5)(c)4.4. Prior to each inspection required by subd. 2. or 3., notify the department in advance of each inspection to provide the department with the opportunity to have an observer present during the inspection. Notify the department of the date and location of the inspection as follows:
NR 665.1085(5)(c)4.a.a. Prior to each visual inspection of an internal floating roof in a tank that has been emptied and degassed, prepare and send written notification so that the department receives it at least 30 calendar days before refilling the tank, except when an inspection is not planned as provided for in subd. 4. b.
NR 665.1085(5)(c)4.b.b. When a visual inspection is not planned and the owner or operator could not have known about the inspection 30 calendar days before refilling the tank, notify the department as soon as possible, but no later than 7 calendar days before refilling the tank. Make this notification by telephone and immediately follow with a written explanation for why the inspection is unplanned. Alternatively, send written notification, including the explanation for the unplanned inspection, so that the department receives it at least 7 calendar days before refilling the tank.
NR 665.1085(5)(c)5.5. In the event that a defect is detected, repair the defect according to sub. (11).
NR 665.1085(5)(c)6.6. Maintain a record of the inspection according to the requirements in s. NR 665.1090 (2).
NR 665.1085(5)(d)(d) Safety devices, as defined in s. NR 665.1081, may be installed and operated as necessary on any tank complying with this subsection.
NR 665.1085(6)(6)The owner or operator who controls air pollutant emissions from a tank using an external floating roof shall meet pars. (a) to (c).
NR 665.1085(6)(a)(a) Design the external floating roof according to all of the following requirements:
NR 665.1085(6)(a)1.1. Design the external floating roof to float on the liquid surface except when the floating roof must be supported by the leg supports.
NR 665.1085(6)(a)2.2. Equip the floating roof with 2 continuous seals, one above the other, between the wall of the tank and the roof edge. The lower seal is referred to as the primary seal, and the upper seal is referred to as the secondary seal.
NR 665.1085(6)(a)2.a.a. The primary seal shall be a liquid-mounted seal or a metallic shoe seal, as defined in s. NR 665.1081. The total area of the gaps between the tank wall and the primary seal may not exceed 212 square centimeters (cm2) per meter of tank diameter, and the width of any portion of these gaps may not exceed 3.8 centimeters (cm). If a metallic shoe seal is used for the primary seal, design the metallic shoe seal so that one end extends into the liquid in the tank and the other end extends a vertical distance of at least 61 centimeters above the liquid surface.
NR 665.1085(6)(a)2.b.b. Mount the secondary seal above the primary seal and cover the annular space between the floating roof and the wall of the tank. The total area of the gaps between the tank wall and the secondary seal may not exceed 21.2 square centimeters (cm2) per meter of tank diameter, and the width of any portion of these gaps may not exceed 1.3 centimeters (cm).
NR 665.1085(6)(a)3.3. The external floating roof shall meet all of the following specifications:
NR 665.1085(6)(a)3.a.a. Except for automatic bleeder vents (vacuum breaker vents) and rim space vents, each opening in a non-contact external floating roof shall project below the liquid surface.
NR 665.1085(6)(a)3.b.b. Except for automatic bleeder vents, rim space vents, roof drains and leg sleeves, equip each opening in the roof with a gasketed cover, seal or lid.
NR 665.1085(6)(a)3.c.c. Equip each access hatch and each gauge float well with a cover designed to be bolted or fastened when the cover is secured in the closed position.
NR 665.1085(6)(a)3.d.d. Equip each automatic bleeder vent and each rim space vent with a gasket.
NR 665.1085(6)(a)3.e.e. Equip each roof drain that empties into the liquid managed in the tank with a slotted membrane fabric cover that covers at least 90 percent of the area of the opening.
NR 665.1085(6)(a)3.f.f. Equip each unslotted and slotted guide pole well with a gasketed sliding cover or a flexible fabric sleeve seal.
NR 665.1085(6)(a)3.g.g. Equip each unslotted guide pole with a gasketed cap on the end of the pole.
NR 665.1085(6)(a)3.h.h. Equip each slotted guide pole with a gasketed float or other device which closes off the liquid surface from the atmosphere.
NR 665.1085(6)(a)3.i.i. Equip each gauge hatch and each sample well with a gasketed cover.
NR 665.1085(6)(b)(b) Operate the tank according to all of the following requirements:
