These Engineering Assessments and Technical Certifications have been prepared in response to 22 CCR 66264.191 (f) and in accordance with 22 CCR 66270.11 (d). The Area 514 Waste Water Treatment Tank Farm Unit consists of existing rank systems, 514-R5A1, 514-R5A2, 514-R5A3, 514-R5A5, and 514-R5A6, that store hazardous waste and have secondary containment that meets the requirements of 40 CFR 264.193 and 22 CCR 66264.193. The tank systems were found to meet or exceed the structural/seismic requirements of the 1988 Uniform Building Code (UBC) with the exception that the tank legs are not structurally adequate to withstand the combined axial and bending loading induced by seismic excitation. Upgrade design is now in progress and the tank legs will be reinforced so that they comply with the current UBC structural/seismic requirements. These technical assessments have been reviewed and certified by an independent, qualified, California-registered professional engineer as required by 22 CCR 66264.191 (f), with the condition that the support legs will be modified to withstand seismic loads and meet the criteria of the current UBC. The support legs will be modified by May 31, 1992, at which time the design will be reviewed, the structure inspected, and certification provided by an independent registered professional engineer. This document will remain on file at the facility. The determinations made in the Technical Certifications are based on the information contained in the balance of this report.
