F. PERIODIC RETESTING AND RE -INSPECTION 1. Cylinder and Ton Containers to be Tested a) Cylinders (except DOT 3E 1800) and ton containers must be retested at least once in five years (DDT Section 173.34e and Section 173.31 d). b) Cylinders cannot be filled until they are retested after the five year anniversary of the month in which it was tested. Ton containers can be filled until the end of the calendar year during which their five year test is due. c) Retests are also required after any reheat treatment. In addition, retest any container which shows evidence of weakness at any time, or show a 5 percent or more loss in weight. 2. Test Procedure a) Cylinders and ton containers are hydrostatically retested by the hydrostatic expansion method [DOT Section 173.34 (a) and Section 173,31 (d)]. If at the time of requalification a container shows a leak or a permanent expansion which exceeds 10% of the total expansion, it must be condemned. 3. Container Records a) Records must be kept showing results of the test. Each container must have the test date plainly and permanently stamped into the metal of one head or the chime of each taskpassing the hydrostatic retest. G. CONDITIONS OF DELIVERY 1.

Equipment Requirements Compatible with storage tanks,, piping and pumping equipment mode of polyethylene, PVC, FRP or stainless steel. BIOXIDEO ..-THE NATURAL SOLUTION BIOXIDE* is a biochemical process solution which controls odors and corrosion caused by hydrogen sulfide and other compounds in wastewater systems. It is safe to handle, and effective dosage will prevent atmospheric hydrogen sulfide from reaching toxic levels, Proper dosage of BIOXIDE treatment solution to a sludge or a wastewater stream, as determined by Evortua Water Technologies LLC, provides for a population of beneficial bacteria which oxidize dissolved hydrogen sulfide and other reduced sulfur compounds as part of their metabolism, By treating the hydrogen sulfide in the wastewater stream, the process prevents release of hydrogen sulfide into the air, reducing odors and corrosion. The BIOXID,E process has proven effective in many types of wastewater facilities, in widely varying flows, and in any kind of weather. Treatment is typically dosed into a collection System upstream from the problem facility. From a few selected points, the benefits will spread throughout the collection system. The process has been docurnented to reduce dissolved hydrogen sulfide from over 50 plan to < 0.1 ppm in numerous wastewater collection force mains, wet wells and gravity interceptors, Similar results have been achieved with BtOXH)E treatment in sludge lagoons and storage tanks. Due to the biochemical nature of this process, complete sulfide removal is extremely cost effective in applications where extended detention times produce septic conditions.
