Tank Survey History 1-Jan-90 Second course plate measured 0.460". 22-Feb-00 Second course plate measured 0.422". 6-Jan-04 Second course plate measured 0.391". 13-Jan-09 External Corrosion was found on the second course plate (0.453 inch) on the east side of the tank where paint failed some years ago. 1ft above the circumferential weld. (Locally thinned area) Corroded area is at 8 ft below the Maximum fill height of the tank. The depth of the corrosion was measured by placing a straight edge over the corroded area and measuring the corrosion depth with a vernier at equally spaced increments over the length L. 0.370 inch 0.347 inch 0.315 inch 0.355 inch 0.398 inch 0.327 inch Depth Measurement (Top) Depth Measurement Depth Measurement Depth Measurement Depth Measurement Depth Measurement (Bottom)
