An
annual test of the operation of the leak
detector must be conducted in accordance
with section 11-280.1-40(a) (4).
(2)
Line tightness testing. A periodic test of
piping may be conducted only if it can
detect a 0.1 gallon per hour leak rate at
one and one-half times the operating
pressure.
(3)
Applicable tank methods. Any of the methods
in section 11-280.1-43(5) to (9) may be used
if they are designed to detect a release
from any portion of the underground piping
that routinely contains regulated
substances.
(4)
Methods of release detection for piping
associated with airport hydrant systems and
field-constructed tanks. One or a
combination of the following methods of
release detection for piping may be used
when allowed by section 11-280.1-41.
(A)
( i)
Perform a semiannual or annual
line tightness test at or above
the piping operating pressure in
accordance with the table below.

PHASE IN FOR PIPING SEGMENTS
ǫ100,000 GALLONS IN VOLUME
First test................
Not later than July 15, 2021 (may use up to 6.0
gph leak rate).
Second test...........
Between July 15, 2021 and July 15, 2024 (may
use up to 6.0 gph leak rate).
Third test ...............
Between July 15, 2024 and July 15, 2025 (must
use 3.0 gph for leak rate).
Subsequent tests ..
Not later than July 15, 2025 begin using
semiannual or annual line testing according to
the Maximum Leak Detection Rate Per Test
Section Volume table above,
(B}
Perform vapor monitoring (conducted in
accordance with section 11-280.1-43(5)
for a tracer compound placed in the
tank system} capable of detecting a 0.1
gallon per hour leak rate at least
every two years;
(C}
Perform inventory control {conducted in
accordance with Department of Defense
Directive 4140.25, ATA Airport Fuel
Facility Operations and Maintenance
Guidance Manual, or equivalent
procedures} at least every thirty-one
days that can detect a leak equal to or
less than 0.5 percent of flow-through;
and
( i}
(ii)
Perform a line tightness test
(conducted in accordance with
subparagraph (A) using the leak
rates for the semiannual test) at
least every two years; or
Perform vapor monitoring or
groundwater monitoring {conducted
in accordance with section
11-280.1-43(5) or {6},
respectively, for the stored
regulated substance) at least
every thirty-one days; or
{D)
Another method approved by the
department if the owner and operator
280.1-66
8 4
§11-280.1-45
can demonstrate that the method can
detect a release as effectively as any
of the methods allowed in subparagraphs
(A)
to (C). In comparing methods, the
department shall consider the size of
release that the method can detect and
the frequency and reliability of
detection.
