['Waste']

- Federal rules require tanks and components of secondary containment to be inspected on a routine basis.
Many inspection requirements apply to tanks and secondary containment. Federal rules require tanks and components to be inspected on a routine basis. Inspections must thoroughly identify leaks, deterioration, corrosion, or structural fatigue in any portion of the tank or system components. Secondary containment systems also require regular inspection.
Documentation of the inspections should be kept in the facility operating record (See 265.73).
